Title: Prod Yahoo! into adding BTCUSD symbol to Yahoo! Finance/charts. Post by: Stephen Gornick on December 20, 2011, 06:59:08 AM Yahoo! says they appreciate our comments. So I provided to them this comment:
Please add Bitcoin currency to the list of currencies tracked. Here's why: 1.) Bitcoin is the most widely traded digital currency out there. 2.) Bitcoin trades freely against the Dollar, Euro, Yen and over a dozen other currencies so is of interest globally -- not from just any one region. 3.) The sources for the data from the exchanges are free. 4.) Beat Google! Google does not yet offer this currency (e.g., http://www.google.com/finance?q=btcusd ) 5.) Beat Bloomberg! Bloomberg terminals feature the digital currency Ven from Hub Culture, which trades just a tiny fraction of the volume that Bitcoin does. 6.) Finance professionals already track Bitcoin, using tools such as SierraChart: http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Sierra_Chart_MtGox_Bridge - http://feedback.help.yahoo.com/feedback.php?.src=FINANCE&.done=http://finance.yahoo.com Title: Re: Prod Yahoo! into adding BTCUSD symbol to Yahoo!
