Topic: D3 Antminer firmware update for additional mining algorithms (Read 2168 times)
oh no, you just crushed my dreams. was just about to pick up my d3 from the attic to power it up again and start mining bitcoins.
^What he said!
I have no idea what the person above you was even rambling about. The D3 mines only X11 and X11 is not compatible with any other X algorithm. There is no way to modify it to make it do so. I've posted this ten times and I'll post it again for all of you people.
The D3 is an ASIC-based miner. It can only hash one algorithm that it was physically designed to hash because of the way ASICs work. The Baikal miners and multi algo X-series miners were FPGA miners that could be reconfigured to hash different algorithms with a firmware update (FPGAs are designed to be modified). No firmware update can add more algorithms to the D3. Only a new miner release could do that, and it'd require Bitmain to make an FPGA-based miner which would also decrease the efficiency of the miner.
Signing this will not do anything and it wouldn't even if Bitmain wanted to. There's no way to "add" algorithms on to existing miners.

Man, I'm with you with how frustrating these people are. It's like you telling them 1 + 2 always equals 3. And they are like "Oh yes. That is true, but what if you do 2 + 1? Eh?" Just let the retards tire themselves out dreaming.

this is true, but if bitmain release a firmware that allow to mine single algos included in x11 algo the d3 return profitable The D3 is an ASIC-based miner.

Done, lets try.
maybe it is possible , probably not
Anyway , just try it.
Nobody loose anything

It's DOA, not going to happen KAPUT
All the other x11 coins are penny coin worth 2 satoshi, only 'dash' was high value, now with a D3 you can mine $2 dash/day, but it costs $4/day for electricity, the other coins U can mine, but the ROI is still negative.
What's a D-3 good for?? space heater, if you can handle the noise of a jet engine in your house
In theory the ASIC should have a 'developers kit' it should have a way to down-load micro-code and re-deploy the HW, sadly BITMAIN doesn't work that way, they're control freaks, and NEVER give their customers the keys to the car.
