Bitmain, the mining hardware giant, has launched new firmware designed to prolong the lifespan of its ETH-mining Antminer E3 product.

Bitmain's Antiminer E3 device had a flaw that was expected to make the machine obsolete by April 2020, due to the device's inability to process the increasing size of ethereum's directed acyclic graph (DAG) files.
