Title: SMS Bitcoin Monitor / Notification - Small/Quick Project
Post by: vxxzy on June 04, 2017, 09:09:37 PM
Hi Bitcointalk. I am new to this site but I'd like to get some thoughtful feedback on this quick weekend hack! It's not meant to be anything serious right now. Just a fun little project.

Built a Cyptocurrency Price Monitor. Send an SMS to our app, and it will report price movements of 1% in either direction. You can specify Cryptocurrency, Amount you are holding, and Current USD/EUR value. No web interface (yet). If you have any major issues: Email Me (in my profile).

Running this Beta for a week, at the end of the week your number will be removed from the system. You can re-subscribe a the end of the 7 day period. This is all free for now as we want to see this scale out.

Number to use for Beta: 240-979-0346

Supported Codes for Beta: BTC - bitcoin XRP - ripplecoin ETH - ethereum LTC - litecoin DASH - dash

Register A Currency
Code:
[YOUR VALUE][USD or EUR]

Bitcoin Example: You have 10 bitcoins and want to see when it makes a 1% change BTC10USD

Ripple Coin Example: You have 282.44 Ripple Coin same as above XRP282.44USD

UnRegister A Currency [CODE]REMOVE

Bitcoin Example: BTCREMOVE

Ripple Coin Example: XRPREMOVE

Thanks!

We should basically send what exactly to 240-979-0346 and how much does it cost doing so? I'm also from Algeria, so what country code should I use in order to be able to send the SMS?
The idea looks very interesting but I have my doubts about being able to run this service for free for a long term. If you are using some like Twilio API to send SMS then It's just a matter of time until It will start costing you some money.
