No. The E3 will never be able to mine ETH again, because Ethereum mining now requires more memory than the e3 supports.

You'll have to mine other coins. Expanse is probably the best choice with an e3, although that could have changed by the time you look at the list.

Hello everyone, I have a question I am new to mining, I was wondering if it is possible to mine tron (trx) with the antminer E3, I know that the antminer E3 is designed to mine ethash and etchash but as now you cannot mine ethereum with maybe the trx if possible, someone has proven it.

TRON is a proof-of-stake coin, so it can't be mined, unfortunately. You're welcome to mine a different algorithm, though, and to earn TRON.

Yes, you can mine any ethash coin with an e3 here to earn TRON. Just set your payout proportions to 100% TRON, and use the e3 on the "ethash-lowmemory" algorithm.
