The Best Bitcoin Price Finder | Journal #5
Have You ever invested into bitcoin? Well I have, and still haven't gotten my money back… But today I will show you the best way to find the Bitcoin Price.
Now Bitcoin died AGES ago. But I believe it might come back. No I'm only kidding. It was fun while it lasted but I don't think it will come back to be fully honest. But have you ever wanted to see Bitcoin prices FAST?
Now you might be confused about how I'm talking about trading when I'm a programmer who codes in python… Well you’re about to see.
Now I have invested into $BTC before (Not a lot) and I always struggled to see the prices. So I have the perfect solution. A program which shows you the live $BTC prices.
How do we do this though? Lets Plan. So we need to somehow find the live $BTC prices. We can use Coin Gecko for this. But normally it will show you the USD price. How do we change it to whatever currency we want? So we want it to ask us what currency it is. We make it ask us what currency we want just shortened. So instead of great British pounds we type in $GBP.
Done! So final touches. I added a Quit function and made it so when you change currency it doesn’t send the $BTC prices with the currency selected once and so when you make it shows you the $BTC prices back in USD.
I later then made it look better by you selecting what happens by clicking 1 for showing the prices, 2 for changing currency, 3 for quitting the program. Remember I didn’t use Tk (Tkinter) for this I just made it print in the terminal.
Thanks for reading I hope you enjoyed! If you want to use this code yourself go to the Links section below and go to my GitHub repo where u can steal the code yourself :)
