# Netzhandwerker Mining Profitability Calculator

> Netzhandwerker Mining Profitability Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from energy.netzhandwerker.de, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status down (last checked 2026-08-31).

Calculates cryptocurrency mining profitability for a specific ASIC miner model given a local electricity price in ct/kWh

## Facts

- Endpoint: POST https://energy.netzhandwerker.de/mining/profitability
- Price: $0.02/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: down
- Last checked: 2026-08-31

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 netzhandwerker-mining-profitability-calculator-25b08618 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if mining with an Antminer S19 Pro is still profitable at my electricity rate of 9 ct/kWh?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly assess whether a specific ASIC mining rig is economically viable given a known local electricity tariff, especially when you want to integrate mining profitability checks into an automated energy management or investment decision workflow. Prefer this over generic mining calculators when you need programmatic access with per-call pricing via x402.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or unsupported ASIC model name returns an error or empty result
- Invalid electricity price (negative or extremely high) may return an error
- Missing required fields returns a validation error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 Payment Required
- Service unavailable or rate limits may return 5xx errors

## How this service works

Live electricity prices, carbon intensity, grid load, renewable share, flexibility windows, battery arbitrage, trading signals and ESG reporting for autonomous agents.

## Output

Returns a profitability analysis for the specified ASIC miner model at the given electricity price, likely including estimated daily/monthly revenue, operating costs, net profit or loss, and possibly a break-even electricity price threshold.
