Hello, I think that the possibility to control what a crypto currency miner mines would be possible. One can for example get the current energy price and shut down or start the miner based on profitably.
This mining tool seems to have a API:
Chia miner api:
There are also some api’s here
Love the idea of smarter crypto mining based on energy prices.
That idea about controlling a crypto miner based on energy prices is interesting. It makes sense to optimize for profitability. I’ve been playing around with mining setups myself, and having a way to automate the process could save a lot of hassle. Recently, I used stealthex.io to swap some mined coins, and the experience was smooth. I liked how easy it was to manage my trades without any headaches. If you’re looking into APIs for mining tools, definitely check out options that let you monitor those energy costs in real time.
Many mining pools also have a direct API that we can query. See e.g. https://www.humpool.com/pool/api-doc
