Meet the new minerstat
minerstat.com has been rebuilt from the ground up as a real-time mining data platform, with autonomous coin discovery, opportunity and confidence scores, a new v3 API and the classic toolbox.
Today we are shipping a new minerstat.com. Not a redesign. A rebuild, from the database schema up, around one idea: mining decisions are only as good as the data behind them, and that data should tell you how much to trust it.
Here is what changed and why it matters.
A real-time data platform, not a static catalog
The old site showed you numbers. The new site shows you numbers with a heartbeat. Every coin page, every calculator row and every API response is backed by a pipeline that continuously pulls network difficulty, block rewards, exchange prices and pool state, then stamps each value with its freshness.
That last part is the point. A profitability figure computed from a price that is 40 seconds old and a difficulty reading from 4 hours ago is not one number. It is two numbers of very different quality glued together. The platform now tracks that distinction internally, and surfaces it instead of hiding it.
Autonomous coin discovery
We no longer wait for someone to file a request before a coin exists on minerstat. The discovery engine watches exchanges and networks, detects new mineable coins, resolves their algorithm, and starts collecting data on its own. Coins graduate to public pages once their data passes quality checks, and they get flagged or retired when their networks stall or their markets dry up.
The practical result: the long tail of mineable coins is covered earlier, and dead coins stop lingering in your results long after they stopped being worth your electricity.
Opportunity and confidence scores
Raw profit per day is a seductive metric and a bad decision tool. A coin can top the profit table because one thin market printed one optimistic price. So every mining opportunity now carries two scores:
- An opportunity score from 0 to 100 that blends profit, risk, data confidence and liquidity into one comparable number.
- A confidence score that tells you how much the underlying data deserves your trust: how fresh it is, how many sources agree, and how deep the markets are.
If you want the full breakdown of what goes into these numbers, we wrote a separate deep dive: how the opportunity score works.
API v3
The same engine that renders the site is exposed as an API. The v3 endpoints return coins, hardware, algorithms, pools and ranked profitability, and every response carries freshness metadata so your software (or your AI agent) can make the same trust judgments we do.

The toolbox, rebuilt on live data
The classic minerstat tools are back, and they now run against the live platform instead of cached tables:
- Mining calculator with ranked results for your hardware and electricity price
- ROI calculator with break-even estimates and confidence ranges
- DAG size calculator with the dates GPUs drop off each network
- Hashrate converter, wallet address validator and a live pool status checker
What comes next
This launch is a foundation, not a finish line. The roadmap is driven by the same principle as the rebuild: more coverage, faster data, and honest signals about data quality. If you build on the API and something is missing, tell us. The platform is designed to grow sideways.
