Hey all — I’ve been experimenting with a simple metric I’m calling a Mining Index.

Idea: take daily PoW miner revenue aka. PoW emissions in USD and normalize it to a 0–100 index relative to recent highs, so you can quickly see when mining economics are “hot” vs “cold” without staring at raw numbers.

This chart shows:

Mining Index (blue) Total PoW emission in USD (pink) BTC emission (red) DOGE emission (green)

What I’m trying to learn from the community:

Does normalizing miner revenue to an index add any value to you as a miner? Any suggestions on the best normalization window (e.g., 90d vs 1y)? What else can we develop for miners and crypto enthusiasts?

If anyone wants the full methodology / formula, I am dropping it into the comments. (don’t want to spam links in the post).
