So, correct me if I'm wrong. Could I just use this d3 X11 to mine cannabis coin or some other X11 coin to help keep profitability up for a longer period of time? If everyone plans to use this to mine Dash, since it's the most profitable at the moment, that would keep attention away from other coins for a while. Or am I misunderstanding mining X11?
I would, of course, ultimately trade the cannabis coin for a legitimate currency like Dash or BTC.
Thoughts?
Correct. The D3 can mine any X11-based coin, just like the L3+ can mine any Scrypt-based coin. The difference is that there aren't nearly as many good X11 coins out there to pick from.
