Thanks!

I'm using Blockchain.info's API to get all of the current prices, which is a weighted average of all of the major exchanges.  The calculator updates the prices every 10 seconds.

Awesome man! I was looking for something like this, it saves a lot of time. Well done!

Do you guys think I should use "bit" instead of "µbit" on this website?  I know bit is more commonly used but I feel like µbit is more clear.
“bit” is too confusing. I think it's better to keep using SI prefixes.

Personally I think it's simple and easy. Loving the wallet lookup feature too. Is the website mobile responsive?

For the USD value, can you setup internal options? Like what the source is, (coinbase, bitstamp ect..)

I would also suggest expanding it to alt coins :O

The theme is sexy :)

Guys, I just discovered that someone ripped off my website:  http://bitlounge.info

What's the best way to approach this problem?  This sucks.   >:(

There's really not much you can do :/ You can leave negative feedback on the Android app page though, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.circleWebCo.bitLounge

You should add the option to convert the units to bits and satoshis.

If by “bits” you mean 0.00001 BTC, then the option is already there (µbit)

This should be made into an app, it will be perfect.

OK, since you asked for it.   ;)  It's still a bit rough but I'll get the kinks worked out.

This is really nicely made. I use preev at the moment but I hope I can remember to use this

It would be a good idea to add some popular alt-coins.
It is a great resource for those who are using arbitrage.
Good job!

I know its a bit hard but... for integrating other currencies, can you do this(if there is no other choice?)? ??? Fetch CurrencyX/USD(or other currency which can be fetched through Blockchain API{1}) and then convert USD/BTC(change USD if you are using {1}) to currency X using the latest data. You can add many more local currencies. ::)

Just wanted to tell you: Great job. I like the flat UI design. Any chance that you also integrate several Altcoins (or did i miss this info somewhere?).

All my best and good luck  :)

bitkoin.io now supports mathematical expressions!  Use it to split the bill or calculate the tip.

Some example expressions:

1+2
9-0.7
4*1.6
7/3
2.5+(9*4)/(3.7-2)

This is extremly  useful and convenient, something preev does not do.

UPDATE

I have added support for over 200 global fiat currencies now.  Simply enter the 3 letter currency code (JPY or NZD for example).  If you don't know your currency code, click the info button and you will find a link.  My plan is to eventually make it more user friendly by displaying search results as you type.

If you type in a currency code, it will remember your selection the next time you visit the website.

I hope this change works out for you guys.  Let me know what you think!



Make it a drop down list. When they press one letter, then currency codes starting matches it shows and then they can easily click it. It would be much more better. Make that all currencies like that incl. the currencies in default list. Making another column for other currencies would be bad, IMO. Keep it up, friend! :)

A drop down list with a search bar sounds good to me.

I'm very proud to announce that bitkoin.io is mentioned in the r/bitcoin FAQ:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2yxy2x/rbitcoin_faq_newcomers_please_read/

as well as the r/changetip sidebar!

https://www.reddit.com/r/changetip
I am not surprised because it a pretty nice tool, light weighted and compactable with most of the operating systems.
