monerometrics

A Monero network-metrics dashboard that runs its own node. monerometrics indexes every block from its own Monero node and surfaces the numbers most explorers bury: live network hashrate, difficulty, block time, mempool state, a transaction-fee estimator, orphan-block tracking, and an interactive chain-fork viewer. Where it goes past a plain explorer is mining-pool attribution — it labels which pool mined each block, something most trackers show only as unattributed share percentages.

Open source and free. The stack is MIT-licensed on GitHub (`nowi333/monerometrics`), and everything — the dashboard and a read-only public API at `api.monerometrics.net` — is free with no account, no API key, no KYC, and no rate-limit. The page carries no analytics scripts, ad tags, or third-party trackers; the project is donation-funded via a published Monero address. Available in English, French, and Spanish.

Why it's useful. If you run a node, mine, or just want to watch Monero's network health without handing a data broker your traffic, this is a clean, first-party source — it computes from its own chain index rather than reselling another explorer's feed. The free public API makes it easy to pull the same data into your own tooling.

The caveat: it's young. The domain dates to May 2026 and the project is only a few months old with a small following, so there's no long track record for uptime or sustained maintenance yet — though the repo is actively pushed to. Nothing here holds your funds or touches your keys, so the risk is simply *"will it still be here and accurate in a year,"* not a custody risk. That youth is the only reason it sits at B rather than higher; verify a figure against a second source before relying on it for anything load-bearing.
