I’ve been running my own solo mining setup for a while now – including a full node, a couple of #bitaxe miners, and a dedicated solo mining pool.

Recently, I've automated miner monitoring and alerts with #openclaw. Running it on my Raspberry Pi and granting it access to Umbrel's OS, miner APIs, and hooking it up with Telegram turned out to be a super powerful combo.

My agent now continuously keeps an eye on:

🔸 Bitcoin node: health and uptime
🔸 AxeOS: miner status and performance
🔸 mempool.space: network difficulty and newly found blocks

Whenever a trigger event occurs, a Telegram bot sends an alert straight to my phone. For example:

◻️ ASIC temperature or error rates exceed defined thresholds
◻️ Hashrate drops below a certain level
◻️ New best shares (per miner and across the entire setup)
◻️ Miner or node goes offline or comes back online
◻️ Bitcoin network difficulty adjustment
◻️ A block is found by any solo miner globally
◻️ Or… by me (yeah, well)

On top of that, I’ve set it up to give me a clean weekly summary every Sunday evening, including uptime per device, average hashrate, and more.

All of this has been scripted and automated with OpenClaw and Claude Code, built in just a few hours, and on a $10 token budget.

Mind = blown 🤯
