Title: Exchange Rate Plugin Post by: jjacob on October 24, 2015, 03:49:29 AM The Bitcoin exchange rate plugin seems to have gone crazy today.
When I opened electrum, the exchange rate shown was 1 BTC = 800+ USD. It has been hovering at 1 BTC = 350 USD since then, although the current price is in the $270s. Does anybody else have this problem? Title: Re: Exchange Rate Plugin Post by: ThomasV on October 24, 2015, 04:31:28 AM which source are you using?
Title: Re: Exchange Rate Plugin Post by: jjacob on October 24, 2015, 04:38:10 AM which source are you using? Checked. It was localbitcoins. Was that unadvisable? Changed it to blockchain.info. Now the price seems reasonable. Title: Re: Exchange Rate Plugin Post by: ThomasV on October 24, 2015, 07:59:04 PM Checked. It was localbitcoins. Was that unadvisable? I will check. Maybe we should remove them from the list.Title: Re: Exchange Rate Plugin Post by: RustyNomad on October 24, 2015, 08:14:18 PM I use BitcoinAverage and price is on 281.58.
I use the specific one as it also offers historical rates, not all do. With the historical rates your transactions are shown at the US$ price at the time of the transaction so a nice way to see what the transaction was worth in $ back when it was executed. Thomas A suggestion - not sure if this is possible but it will be a nice feature if the USD Amount can be included in the data when exporting the history. I also made a post some time back to ask whether the order of the export file could possibly be changed. Currently the export order is Code: Transaction_hash, label, confirmations, value, timestamp Would be nice if it could be changed around to the following: Code: Timestamp, label, value, (USD Amount), confirmations, transaction_hash Currently when exporting to a spreadsheet (csv) I always need to rearrange the columns in a more logical order, as above. Not a major problem but would be nice. |
