About xbt.live
xbt.live is an independent, free dashboard for XBT (BTCB2, Bitcoin BLAKE2b). Live price, hash rate, difficulty, mining pools, nodes, miner profitability, a daily reference price, news and phone widgets, all in one place.
No ads that track you, no account, no paywall. Built for miners, holders and anyone trying to make sense of a young chain.
Independent
xbt.live is not run by, paid by or affiliated with the XBT developers, any exchange, any mining pool or any miner seller. We report what the chain and the markets show, good or bad. When a pool gets too big, we say so. When an exchange pauses withdrawals, we say so.
Who runs it
xbt.live is run by a small, independent team that prefers to stay anonymous, like many Bitcoin projects. The site, data and code speak for themselves. You never need to trust us: every number comes from public explorers and exchanges, and the methodology is published.
How it's funded
- Referral links. Some exchange links pay us a share of trading fees at no cost to you. They are always marked.
- Donations in XBT at xbt.live/donate.
- Sponsorships from XBT ecosystem projects, always labeled "Sponsored". Sponsors never change data, rankings or what we write. See Advertise.
Disclosures
- The operator of this site may hold XBT.
- If xbt.live ever lists a product or service the operator has a stake in, it will be labeled "operator has a commercial interest".
- Nothing on this site is financial advice.
The data
Chain data comes from public XBT explorers, prices from exchange APIs (NeoxEX, NonKYC) and Coinbase for BTC/USD, node counts from the open B2B Node Census. The daily reference price method is published at xbt.live/data, and the series is never revised. Everything is free to use through our API.
