Sorry in advance if this is in the wrong forum (also if I'm breaking any rule or protocol here). I'm working on integrating a bitcoin calculator into my website and I need some help factoring in the difficulty increase. I'm more a c# developer and not much of a PHP developer. Anyway, if you get it to work how I'd like it to work, I'll send you 0.1 BTC as a reward/bounty for doing this for me.
Here's what I'd like it to do:
-Have difficulty as a set variable (such as 28%) in the code ($difficultyPercent = 0.28) etc
-Factor in difficulty for the monthly and yearly estimates (everyone seems to use 28% every 9 or 11 days)
So as an example, for 1.3 Th/s the output would show yearly about ~10 BTC rather than ~76 BTC
Current output looks like this with no difficulty adjustment (for 1.3Th/s):
Bitcoins per Year: 76.30313052
Bitcoins per Month: 6.27555384
Bitcoins per Week: 1.46234610
Bitcoins per Day: 0.20890659
Would like the output to be adjusted for difficulty like so after factoring in the difficulty increase:
Bitcoins per Year: 10.xxxxxxx
Bitcoins per Month: 4.xxxxxxx
Bitcoins per Week: 2.xxxxxxx
Bitcoins per Day: 0.2xxxxxxx

$difficulty = curl_exec($ch);
$hashRate = 1300000000;
$blockCoins = 25.00;
$day1 = "86,400";
$share = $day1 / ($difficulty * 2^32 / $hashRate);
$hashTime = ((float) $difficulty) * (pow(2.0, 32) / ($hashRate * 1000.0)) ;
$blocksPerYear = (365.25 * 24.0 * 3600.0) / $hashTime ;
$blocksPerMonth = (30.04 * 24.0 * 3600.0) / $hashTime;
$blocksPerWeek = (7.0 * 24.0 * 3600.0) / $hashTime;
$blocksPerDay = (24.0 * 3600.0) / $hashTime;
$coinsPerYear = number_format($blockCoins * $blocksPerYear, 8);
