We've just added scrypt support to the dashboard.  There is a handful of litecoin and dogecoin pools avaiable, contact me if we are missing your dashboard.  Expect new dashboard views to be added later this week.

Ghash.io support as now public for all users!  Simply click on the Pools tab and choose Ghash.io from the dropdown.   Let me know what you think!

Thanks dandirk,

Thanks for the feedback!  You'll be seeing the estimated earnings stats morph into more advanced calculator.  Stay tuned!

I sent in a request for access to ghash.io...

As for the Dashboard... personally I think it is awesome... Has great info... btc price on all the different exchanges, expected earnings, great.


The only request which seems a bit out of what you are currently working on (pool support)... would be a good miner calculator.   There are a lot out there but most are missing one feature or another.

http://www.vnbitcoin.org/bitcoincalculator.php  - Preorder options don't seem to work, only shows details for upto ROI not profit and eventual time of loss.

http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/ - Pretty good but difficulty is per month instead of every 2 weeks.  Also doesn't show BTC earnings both daily and cumulative.


The features that come up for a good calc for me are:

- Adjustable fields : Miner Cost, Elect Cost (kWh), Pool cost (%), Difficulty increase (% bi-weekly), Miner Pwr Consumption (watts), Pre-order date, BTC price, # of days
- Results fields: BTC per day, $ per day, cumulative BTC, cumulative $, Different colors/indicators for ROI, Profit and Loss,  Power cost per day, cumulative power cost, dates/ranges I would guess per difficulty window.

We're close to launching MineCTRL's ghash.io support, but we would like a little more feedback.  Anyone interested in beta testing ghash.io functionality? If so, contact me and we will grant you access to ghash support.

can i have access to it ?!

Click the "Contact Us" menu item in MineCTRL and send and submit a ticket requesting access, or just PM me your username.

Latest update:  

A big THANK YOU goes out to everybody patiently waiting for this update.  Here's a quick breakdown of what has been added.  Updates were deployed over the last 3 days while we verified the updates were working properly across all pools.

Currency Update.
We finally launched the currency update to MineCTRL.  Pools should now display merge mining currencies (e.g. namecoin, devcoin, etc.). If one of your pools supports merge mining and does not show a balance, please let us know.  We will be adding new coins (litecoin, dogecoin, peercoin) and new pools in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for scrypt support, as well as a wide variety of new dashboards.

Public Dashboard (aka Group buy Dashboard)
We added a new option that allows you to mark your dashboard for public viewing. Great for group buys and co-op mining ops. Public Dashboard settings can be configured from your profile.

Auto Refreshing Dashboard
The dashboard now auto-refreshes every 5-10 minutes automatically.

Eligius API is somewhat incomplete with only the hashrate showing or am I missing something?

Yeah, right now total hashrate is the only information we clearly capture from Eligius.  Once support for altcoins is added (End of January), I will take another look at the Eligius API and see if we can capture all the available data.

We are currently working on adding alt coin support and we are expecting to launch it by the end of the month.  We also received an update from Ghash.io on api support:

The total hashrate, balance, and worker hashrate data will be available some time within the next two weeks.
We have the dev team working on it now.

Thanks for the heads up on this!  I personally reached out to them two months ago when I was testing out different pools and apis for the this project, but I didn't actually state that I was a dev....or mention mineCTRL... in hindsight, I suck. I'll reconnect with them this week and go from there!

Awesome, hopefully they give you guys access!!

Official quote from Ghash.io support on adding api access:

Hey infamousDutch,
I'm sorry for the delay.
I have enquired this with the upper management.
Unfortunately, I am unable to provide the API, as it hasn't been developed.

As soon as it gets done - I will notify you.

Yours Truly,
XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX
CEX.IO Support

So, in short, the api endpoint does not exist yet on their system.
I replied asking for a possible ETA on this, I'll post when they update.

After some back and forth with ghash.io (cex.io) they did mention they are able to provide an API for mining to developers at their discretion.

Maybe you could reach out to them (via support on cex.io) and try to get access?  You'll need to be specific that it is not their public API rather their mining API for ghash.io as they were initially confused.

Hi,

Thank you for your request.

We do have an API live report for mining information.

This information can be accessed, and is available for developers to use upon request, at our discrepancy.

Let us know if we can assist you with anything else.

You really should add alt-currency pools such as litecoin.

Thanks for the feedback!
We are planning to add alt coins in early 2014.

Do me a favor, in BtcGuild, scroll down to your workders and click the "reset" stats button on each of your workers.

I reset and it's still reporting 29mh/s rather than 2900mh/s.
lajz99, your issue should be resolved in production, thanks for the feedback!

A few things I'm noticing / suggestions:
  • When you click "View" in pool management you get "Error. An error occurred while processing your request"


This issue has been resolved in tonight's push.  There was a bug in the refreshPool method when called from the Pool Admin page.  Thank you for reporting this!

Thanks lajz99 for the feedback!

Ghash.io currently does not have a api that provides hashrate and worker data.  We have submitted a request for this feature, we'll have to see where this goes, Once we have the api format, they will be added within 24 hours.

BTCGuild:  How long  has it shown the inaccurate number?  I've found with BTCGuild that when I am switching pools that they display a really low valude for the first couple of minutes, but it should ramp up rather quickly. 

Not a problem, always happy to provide feedback!

Still looks inaccurate.
 
I see overall 64 gh/s then below Slushs 61ghs and BTCGuild 33 mh/s (should be ~3300mh/s)

I'm using Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63 m.

Any chance we can get 2 decimal places for mining speed and full 8 for pending payouts on the dashboard?

Yeah! It depends on what the pools give us for decimal places, but for the most part we usually get all that data. Some pools are a little wacky. Some people may find we are missing pools. If that's the case, just let us know and we'll see about adding it.

Any chance you can add ghash.io?

I'm also noticing btcguild on my dashboard is reporting 29mh/s but should be 2.95gh/s.   Wink

On the GH/s, I believe anything higher than 10GH/s is reported as such, otherwise we measure as 7000MH/s.

Makes sense, in that case it's likely not being converted correctly (missing 0's).  Really liking the site, can't wait to see where you guys take it.

I believe we didn't include GHash.IO because they don't have a public API. Not 100% sure on that. InfamousDutch would have more info on that front.

A few things I'm noticing / suggestions:
  • When you click "View" in pool management you get "Error. An error occurred while processing your request"
  • On the login screen, the password box is on a different line than "Password" unlike "Email Address"
  • The "Add A Pool" button on the dashboard just takes up unncessary real estate in my opinion

Do you have a list of functionality you plan on adding in the future?

Thanks for your feedback! This is exactly what we are looking for at this point in time. We're looking into that error and into that password line issue. Could I ask what browser you are using?

The "Add a Pool" button actually disappears after a number of pools have been added, but maybe we can change that so it's only for newbs that don't yet have a pool setup. We are adding a button to the top menu that basically replaces this (in fact, I was supposed to do it already but I forgot Smiley )

Yes we have a large list of features we have planned on adding, but we wanted to get the basic functionality out in the hands of the people. We'll have a list of upcoming features soon. I don't wanna announce anything that we aren't going to do.

Hi everyone! A group of friends and I have been working on a project for a few months now called "MineCTRL." The idea started as a Google Analytics for your mining operation. It has since become more of a one-stop dashboard for all mining information relevant to your own operations. Plug in your pool API key, and we can start pulling real-time data as you mine. You can add notifications that alert you when your miners are down, or when the price of coin changes.

We just entered open beta and are wanting everyone who is interested to try it. It's going to be free for beta, and we are still determining cost for the full launch. But we're hoping that MineCTRL makes up the cost to you by saving you from unwanted downtime.

Sign up at MineCTRL.com

Please drop me a line or post a reply here if you have any feedback or find any bugs, we really appreciate it!
