Title: What's the best API to use to get the current bitcoin price? Post by: cilphex on March 23, 2013, 08:03:43 PM I'm thinking of making a simple Chrome extension that would allow you to easily check the price of bitcoin at any time by simply clicking a button in your browser, instead of having to visit a website. I'm unfamiliar with any APIs that might currently be out there which would make this possible. Anyone have a recommendation?

https://blockchain.info/api/exchange_rates_api Though I'm always open to learning about other APIs available to me anyway, for future reference. Title: Re: What's the best API to use to get the current bitcoin price? Post by: aantonop on March 23, 2013, 09:56:15 PM mtgox has a couple.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MtGox/API I believe the most low-latency API they have is the websockets API, where you subscribe to a price feed in near real time. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MtGox/API/Streaming Here's a discussion about it and BETA testing: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5855.0 Title: Re: What's the best API to use to get the current bitcoin price?

I'm unfamiliar with any APIs that might currently be out there which would make this possible. Anyone have a recommendation? i like to design a special app for finding bit coin price and checking every day. so now i'm trying to designing new app. actually coindesk API is the best for using. so present i had to using this API only.and making few changes in google then it is easy to finding price.

The last online wallet hack was because of chrome extensions btw. So beware people.!
