E3 mining coming today, along with price fixes

[Steve Sokolowski]

Chris will be restarting the mining servers this afternoon to apply two updates. First, he will release support for E3 miners. Second, he will reattempt the prior release to fix the constant WAMP live data disconnects that failed and needed to be reverted on Wednesday. The downtime should only last a few minutes.

What algorithm is the X3?

[CSZiggy]

Cryptonight, NOT the v8 one that is on the site now. The regular one that Monero is not on.

We don't have an ETA for that right now. Our current highest priority is to clear out the support tickets and to add all of the coins at crex24 and exx. Once we've gotten those done, then enabling those algorithms will probably be next. As we've pointed out before, the issue is simply adding the coins; the system has support for this algorithm already.

Bitmain X3 is Cryptonight (the original CN, not v7, not v8)

My X3s are currently mining well with DERO

There may be a lot of coins, but I bet that many of these coins have their wallets locked on all exchanges.

did anyone manage to mine with an e3 yet?

I tried no luck.

I suspect E3 is not capable to switch coins and will not work on a multi-coin pool/port.

Its designed to work on a single coin - I have tried it on ETH, ETC without any issues
