Title: Getting bitcoin json data
Post by: smtabatabaie on June 21, 2015, 07:46:31 PM
Hi, my first post here. I'm new to bitcoin and I wanted to create a program which shows bitcoin data. I want to show the current price of the bitcoin , and also the feed to develop the bitcoin globe like https://blockchain.info/nodes-globe?series=topBlockRelay . I wanted to ask if there is any source I that can give me these feeds preferably in JSON.
I'll appreciate if someone can help me with this.
Thanks very much

You can get the current price using any API that's provided by btc-e, blockchain.info, BitPay, or any other number of exchanges. You just have to search and pick whichever one works for you.

You can use the Bitnodes API (https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/) to get information about nodes similar to what's shown on the globe.

most bitcoin wallets have current price of bitcoin from different sources (multiple exchanges), like multibit for example. you can check their github page for their code and to copy it easily for your own usage.

In every bitcoin exchanger use an API for current btc price, for example:
https://www.bitstamp.net/api/
Also coindesk use too: http://www.coindesk.com/api/

What all datas do you need?

For getting values from different exchanges, you will have to use API from exchanges you want to fetch. Bither fetches rates from some of the known exchanges, try to look the codes. You will get something useful from it. ATM I am lazy to point you to the exact lines. Github repository of Bither: https://github.com/bither.

Thanks very much , https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api seems to be a very good source . But I had another question about why bitcoin globes are different , for example http://bitcoinglobe.com/ and https://blockchain.info/nodes-globe?series=topBlockRelay are totally different from what they seem and unfortunately they don't have any manuals for what different heights and colors mean.
I'll appreciate if you can also help me with this.
Thanks very much

What else do you need other than the BTC price and the block location data?    It would be hard to suggest which specific API to use without an exact list of what you need.

I think BTC price and block location would be enough , but what I want to do is to recreate this globe and the fist thing is to first fully understand what do heights and colors of bars represent.
