Overview
New API
Our biggest undertaking was the migration to a new API provider for stock market data. The API we previously relied on had a number of issues with incomplete or missing data and was limited in terms of the variety of different metrics they were offering. After a few days of stressful investigation and research, because most well-known providers were no better, I ended up finding a data source that made the entire process worth all my effort.
With the new API we'll now be able to provide a lot more financial metrics for the Bitcoin mining stocks, which we plan to implement during an upcoming build-out of the "company" page that I estimate will be completed in October. We have access to more complete and extensive records when it comes to historical data, which will be useful for upcoming features we're planning. There was also the addition of data for international stocks.
International Bitcoin Mining Stocks
When we started this project, we decided to limit our scope to NASDAQ listed Bitcoin mining companies only for the foreseeable future. However, as an unintended consequence of switching API providers, we now had access to a lot of international stock data that was not available to us previously.
Therefore earlier this week we were able to add to our market cap rankings a few notable companies like Cathedra Bitcoin (CBIT) and DMG Blockchain Solutions (DMGI), which are traded on TSXV, as well as Northern Data AG (NB2) which is traded on XETRA. These were priced in both CAD and EUR, so they have been converted to USD in order to make the data comparable to our existing list of mining stocks.
While we don't have access to absolutely everything right now, for example we can't get data for Phoenix Group (PHX) in the UAE, let us know if there are any publicly listed miners we are missing and we'll see if we can add it!
Charts
Next up, we're excited to share one of the best additions to our site so far: charts! You can now head over to the Hash Rate or Production pages to view bar charts for Installed Hash Rate, Operating Hash Rate, Bitcoin Production, and Bitcoin Holdings.
When we set out to create these charts, the goal was to make them stand out—because who doesn't appreciate a great looking chart? While we're still making a few final tweaks, I'm really pleased with how they've turned out. We'll be adding more charts for additional data as it's implemented, including different chart styles. If you enjoy our charts, don't forget to hit the download button and share them on social media to show your support!
PR Newsfeed
Staying on top of the latest announcements and news is crucial for making informed decisions when buying or selling Bitcoin mining stocks. Like many others, I found it challenging to keep track of everything, especially since there wasn’t a single source that provided comprehensive information on all the miners. That’s why we decided to create a dedicated newsfeed on our site.
Our News page features a real-time PR Newsfeed that aggregates press releases from all publicly listed Bitcoin mining companies. As soon as a company makes an announcement, it appears here, giving you the advantage of being among the first to know. Whether it's financial results, operational updates, or new partnerships, you’ll find it all in one place.
To further enhance your experience, we're working on implementing individual company press release feeds on each company's page. This will allow you to easily access and track updates from specific companies you're interested in.
Press Release Summaries
We understand that many updates published by Bitcoin mining companies can be lengthy and filled with dense information. Not everyone has the time to comb through every release from every company, every day, to get critical pieces of information contained within. That’s why we've taken the hard work out of the process by providing concise summaries of each press release, capturing all the key points in the length of a tweet!
These bite-sized summaries are automated and perfectly complement our PR Newsfeed, allowing you to quickly grasp the essentials without missing out on important details. In fact, we've noticed that regularly we even beat the companies themselves in posting a link to their press release, complete with the summary. To stay ahead of the curve, make sure to follow us on X or Telegram, where we post these updates.
