Learn what crypto coins are, primarily that Bitcoin is a specific coin with very specific hardware needs. The word 'Bitcoin' is not a general term for all crypto coins! BTC can only be mined with a miner made for processing the SHA256 algo and for several years now that means ASIC-based miners.
b. All the other coins fall under the general name of 'altcoins'. There are specific areas for alts here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0). Use them as altcoin queries are not welcome in Bitcoin areas. More to point of that is that the altcoin ares are where you find folks living/breathing alts so much better chance of answers there. c. All ASIC-based miners such as the s9, A741, eBit9, and yes even the D3 can ONLY process the coin they were made for. The chips are hard-wired to do one thing and one thing only, that cannot be changed. Period.
