I frequently use the JSON from WTM for pulling statistics. However, I have found quite a few new coins that do not show up in WTM. I'd like to still pull in the difficulty data for these coins, is there a way to actively do this? I understand how to create a coin, but that just statically sets the difficultly.
I usually dont have to do anything special besides adding the json url into statistics tab for coins to show up. They dont appear right away, but after a few statistics update cycles they do.
The only time they dont is if the algorithm hasnt yet been added and enabled in awesome miner. Both in the algorithm tab as well as adding and enabling the miner propely in the managed software tab (not 100% sure this second point is necessary, but it's what i've always done). Good examples of this are Cryptonight-light, polytimos, HSR or TimeTravel10. Once the algo is added the stats from whattomine show up in the coins tab.
