# Mining Energy Intensity — Named Scenario Comparison

> Mining Energy Intensity — Named Scenario Comparison is a paid API for AI agents from market.datapackvibe.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-16).

Compares named mining energy intensity scenarios by computing energy consumed per BTC mined across a baseline and up to 20 labeled alternative configurations.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability mining-energy-intensity-named-scenario-comparison-0722c7a5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Compare my baseline mining setup of 1000 kWh and 0.01 BTC mined against two scenarios: 'Efficient rigs' using 850 kWh for 0.01 BTC, and 'Scaled up' using 1200 kWh for 0.015 BTC — show me the energy intensity per BTC for each.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to compare bitcoin mining energy efficiency across multiple named configurations simultaneously, with clearly labeled baseline and alternative scenarios. It is ideal for operational planning, hardware refresh analysis, or capacity scaling decisions where you want a structured, bounded comparison report. Prefer it over single-point calculators when you have 2–20 distinct named scenarios to evaluate in one call.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required baseline fields (energy_kwh or net_btc) returns a validation error
- Scenarios array empty or exceeding 20 items is rejected
- net_btc or energy_kwh values of zero or negative are rejected due to exclusiveMinimum:0
- Scenario overrides object with no properties (minProperties:1 not met) causes rejection
- Payment of 0.01 USDC not included or fails x402 protocol causes payment error

## How this service works

Mining energy intensity — Named scenario comparison: Named scenario comparison for Mining energy intensity. Supplied mining assumptions only; formula and units disclosed. No live prices, mining or guaranteed return. Specialised preset in a shared 50-profile, 20-operation engine. 0.01 USDC includes one bounded named scenario comparison report.

## Output

A bounded named scenario comparison report showing energy intensity (kWh per BTC) for the baseline configuration and each labeled scenario, enabling side-by-side efficiency analysis. No live prices or guaranteed return figures are included — only mining energy intensity metrics derived from the supplied assumptions.
