What this site is
Mining Stats tracks Bitcoin and altcoin mining: pool distribution, network hashrate, hashprice, security risk, and rental markets. Data is collected every few minutes from public sources (mempool.space, miningpoolstats, CoinGecko, Luxor, NiceHash, MiningRigRentals) and surfaced through a single dashboard plus per-entity pages.
What's on the blog
Two kinds of posts:
- Weekly auto-reports — every Monday, a generated post summarising the week's mining data: hashrate trend, pool gainers and losers, hashprice movement, and a Nakamoto coefficient update. Pure data, deterministic.
- Manual articles — published when something is worth a longer take: a pool's history, a centralization analysis, an explainer on a mining mechanic.
Both are listed at /blog, or you can subscribe via RSS.
Where to look first
- The dashboard — full data table for power users.
- /entity/foundry-usa — example per-entity page with timeline + addresses.
- /og/dashboard.png?coin=BTC — auto-generated snapshot card for sharing.
Methodology
Pool names are normalised to operational entities (e.g. Foundry USA and foundrydigital.com resolve to one entity). Per-coin source preference picks the more reliable upstream (mempool.space first for Bitcoin, miningpoolstats for everything else). Concentration metrics (Nakamoto coefficient, top-3/5 share) compute over entities, not raw pool names.
Suggestions and corrections welcome.
