SmartLedger’s Custom WordPress Plugin:
Visualizing the Energy Economics of Blockchain
Overview
SmartLedger, a leader in blockchain innovation, sought a better way to communicate the environmental impact of Bitcoin through its customer-facing Web3CO2 Energy Index. The challenge: raw numerical data displayed through APIs lacked clarity and engagement for users.
Partnering with JNext, SmartLedger commissioned the development of a custom WordPress plugin that would integrate their existing Node.js APIs and present the data through visual meters, graphs, and customizable modules – built for speed, usability, and WordPress-native flexibility.
Platform: WordPress 6.x
Services Offered:
- Plugin Development, Data Visualization, API Integration
Project Scope:
- UX Optimization, Admin Tools, MVP Delivery
Duration: Sept 2023 – Jan 2024
Team: 5 Members
Operational Challenges
Before development, SmartLedger faced a range of user experience, security, and infrastructure challenges.
Users couldn’t interpret raw numerical data
No API licensing logic or admin configuration support
API Conflicts with WordPress Page Builders
Limited visualization tools and no shortcode-based control
API display errors when data endpoints failed
Tight 60-day MVP timeline for event presentation
The Business Needs
SmartLedger and Web3CO2 needed a purpose-built plugin to connect Node.js APIs with WordPress and present real-time blockchain energy usage through interactive visuals.
Key Requirements :
- Dynamic graphs, charts, and meters for energy index data
- Admin control panel for layout and API configuration
- License and security logic built into the API integration
- Page Builder–friendly shortcodes for frontend display
