Title: Network hashrate and difficulty raw data
Post by: P4man on January 05, 2012, 07:54:53 AM
Im looking for raw data (csv or whatever) that is needed to produce these graphs:

Anyone have an idea how to obtain that?

Hashrate can be approximated from the blockchain itself.  All you need is the difficulty and time between blocks, then apply a generous amount of SMA.

 I was hoping I wouldnt need any coding skills:

The one I linked as hashrates for every 2,016 blocks (IE, 2 weeks), but I don't know of a source for finer-grained data than that.  Keep in mind that computing it much finer than per-day will give very noisy data.

What are you doing with it, if I may ask?

I suppose its good enough; What I want to do is simply chart price over difficulty.

Hashrate is directly proportional to difficulty.

If you need finer data than that and it's for an interesting enough reason I can generate it for you.  :)
