Title: Can I use Antminer S3 to mine other cryptocurency?
Post by: UnderBTC on January 05, 2018, 08:28:34 PM
Hello guys and miners
can someone tell if I am able to use my Antminer S3 to mine any other cryptocurrency?
Does he/she have a link to a website that worked for you?
Do you know how to configure the miner?


Thank you, I am new and I am sorry if it is a wrong place that I posted in.

The only one that I am aware of would be Bitcoin Cash (aka BCH). Many folks here consider that an Alt-Coin (aka s**tcoin). I have dabbled with mining BCH on btc.com as the pool. It was easy to do, though I don't know if an S3 would be profitable.

Best of luck.

Thank you for replay,
But Yes, I made so much with Antminer S3, When I got 1 BTC was about $550 and I made 0.2 with it I used slushpool, the only mistake I did was I didn't start my miner sometimes for weeks, But ya I made profits with it. :)
