Overview

AI-generated overview

Provides Bitcoin mining market data and calculators, including hashprice, difficulty, halving, mempool fees, ASIC prices, and profitability estimates.

What it does
This local MCP server exposes tools for Bitcoin mining and network data. It returns current BTC price, hashprice, difficulty and network stats, historical price and difficulty series, calendar-month averages, halving era and supply information, mempool fee estimates, recent blocks, and ASIC market prices by efficiency tier. It also includes calculators for mining profitability and breakeven BTC price for a given setup.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to answer questions about Bitcoin mining economics, hashprice, difficulty adjustments, halving timing, mempool fees, or the ROI of a specific ASIC configuration. It suits mining operators, analysts, and anyone tracking network conditions over time.
Requirements
Runs locally as a stdio process, installed globally or invoked with npx, so Node.js is required. No authentication is declared and no environment variables are required, though an optional STARTMINING_API_KEY can be set for higher rate limits. Network access is needed to reach the provider's data services.
Before you install
The optional STARTMINING_API_KEY is a credential and should be stored as an environment variable rather than shared. Queries and any setup details passed to the profitability calculators are sent to the provider's data services. Figures such as profitability, breakeven, and difficulty predictions are estimates, not financial advice.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Startmining Bitcoin Mining Data in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.
