#difficulty

Litecoin's fee market, difficulty cycle and mining-pool distribution, live from the public Litecoin Space API (a mempool.space instance) — no key, nothing cached. The existing Litecoin reader covers addresses, transactions and blocks; this opens the network-economics layer it does not. Read the recommended fee rates in litoshi per virtual byte — from next-block down to economy and the relay minimum — together with the live mempool backlog. Read the difficulty adjustment: how far through the current 2016-block retarget window the chain is, the projected difficulty change, the estimated retarget date and the blocks remaining. And read the mining-pool distribution over the last week — which pools are finding Litecoin blocks, how many, their share and the network's estimated hashrate (Litecoin is mined with Scrypt, often merge-mined with Dogecoin). The fee-and-mining layer for Litecoin wallets, miners, fee estimators and analytics. Live from litecoinspace.org.

Bitcoin's network-security and mining-economics layer, live and keyless, powered by mempool.space — hashrate, mining difficulty, the difficulty-adjustment countdown, the halving countdown and per-window block-reward economics. These are the numbers that describe how hard Bitcoin is to mine and how secure the chain is, not a price and not a block explorer. The difficulty endpoint is the flagship: the current mining difficulty plus the live adjustment countdown — how far through the current 2016-block epoch we are, the projected size of the next adjustment (Bitcoin retargets every two weeks so blocks stay ~10 minutes apart), the blocks remaining to the retarget, the estimated retarget date and the realised average block time. The hashrate endpoint returns the current network hashrate in EH/s plus a historical hashrate-and-difficulty timeseries over a chosen window (1m to all). The halving endpoint is the countdown to the next block-subsidy halving — the current block height, the current subsidy in BTC, the next halving block and how many blocks and days remain. The rewards endpoint returns block-reward economics over a recent window: the total miner reward, the fee share, and the per-block averages, all in BTC. This is the Bitcoin difficulty / hashrate / halving cut — distinct from the Bitcoin block-explorer feed (mempool, fees, blocks, addresses, transactions), the mining-pool-distribution feed (who finds the blocks and how centralised), and the multi-coin mining-profitability feed. Hashrate in EH/s, difficulty raw and in trillions, rewards in BTC, times in UTC. No key, nothing stored.

The long-run on-chain economics of Bitcoin as time series, served from the public blockchain.com charts feed. Where snapshot APIs report the chain state right now, this is the history: how the hash rate, mining difficulty, miners' revenue, daily transaction count, transaction fees, market price, market capitalisation, circulating supply, mempool size, average block size, estimated on-chain transaction volume, daily unique addresses, UTXO count and median confirmation time have moved over months and years. The metric endpoint returns one metric's full daily time series over a chosen window (30 days to all-time) with summary statistics — first, last, change, percent change, minimum, maximum and average. The latest endpoint returns a metric's current value with its change versus the previous reading and versus 30 days ago. The metrics endpoint lists every available metric with its unit and category. This is the historical and charting view of Bitcoin's network economics — distinct from the live mempool-snapshot, the multi-chain network-stats and the price-feed APIs in the catalogue. Live, no key on the upstream, nothing stored.

Live Bitcoin mining and hashrate analytics, built on the open mempool.space dataset — the mining layer, not address or mempool data: the mining-pool dominance ranking by share of blocks mined over a period, the current network hashrate and difficulty plus their history, the history of difficulty adjustments with each retarget's percentage change, and block-reward economics over the last N blocks (total and average reward, fees and transactions).
