Title: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on December 23, 2013, 04:22:48 AM Feedback welcome, I'll be doing some dev on it over the next few days/weeks, as well!
The site is: http://smscoincheck.com/ Mainly geared toward USA (for now). Simply send a text message and get the current price back. Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on December 23, 2013, 05:53:32 AM Just updated to allow you to pull both mtgox and btce prices.
Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on December 23, 2013, 09:54:42 PM Updated to allow you to pull from coinbase now too!
More currencies and exchanges coming soon! Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on December 24, 2013, 09:16:39 PM Added Bitstamp to the list now!

Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on February 14, 2014, 09:17:48 PM I would like anyone's opinion on this:
I'm thinking of changing up the code to allow the user to specify different currency pairs (not just btc/usd). This would make more to text, but gives the user more information. IE: If you want the DOGE/BTC price, you could send "doge btc exchange" to the number and it would reply back with the price. Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: browep on February 18, 2014, 01:27:03 AM is there a way to get an average? what happens if i just send "btc" would it use the bitcoinaverage rate?

There are a few 'indexes' out there (such as the coindesk index) that basically average all of the exchanges out. I guess Bitcoinaverage leverages something like this. I could have it default, if someone just sends "btc" to use bitcoinaverage. Title: Re: New Service: SMSCoinCheck.com Post by: sheldonkennedy on June 16, 2014, 02:36:57 PM I have done a simple but needed update:
- removed mtgox (did that awhile back) - added kraken and bitfinex - added a poll to let users request a country for support |
