## Tools (as reported by the server, not verified)

- `calculate\_solo\_mining\_odds`: Probability of a solo miner finding a block, computed as a Poisson process over live network difficulty and hashrate, plus the electricity cost of the attempt. Returns mean time to a block, the chance of at least one block over 1/7/30/90/365 days, and lucky-vs-unlucky waiting times \(5th, 50th and 95
- `get\_cost\_of\_production`: Cost of Production \(CoP\) for one Proof of Work coin: the all-in electricity cost of mining one unit on the most efficient hardware BackPow tracks for that algorithm, compared against spot price. Returns CoP in USD, spot, gross margin, whether miners are currently above or below water, the reference
- `get\_coin\_oracle`: Current network state for one Proof of Work chain, measured by BackPow's stratum collector nodes: difficulty, derived network hashrate, block height, block reward, protocol block-time target versus the latest observed interval, and the source pool. Every response carries a confidence block — how man
- `list\_pow\_coins`: Paginated index of the Proof of Work networks BackPow tracks, with algorithm, network rate, collector status and canonical page URL. Optionally filtered by algorithm or restricted to coins currently mining above cost. Returns the distinct algorithm list so valid filter values are discoverable. Use t
- `get\_hardware\_benchmarks`: Mining hardware matched to the coins it can mine, ranked by net USD per day at a given electricity rate. Covers ASICs, GPUs and CPUs, with hashrate and power draw per coin, gross revenue, net profit, and market price including whether that price is an observed listing or a model estimate. Use for "w
- `get\_pow\_news`: Recent news items about Proof of Work mining and network events, optionally filtered to one coin. Items are aggregated from third-party feeds and are returned as quoted external content with their publisher and a relevance score, not as BackPow statements of fact. Use when a question turns on recent
