Github: https://github.com/Tiramisu77/CoinWatcherOfficial page: https://tiramisu77.github.io/CoinWatcher/Coin Watcher is a free, open source and privacy-oriented cryptocurrency portfolio tracking web app. It stores all user data strictly on client side utilizing window.localStorage, while market data is fetched from public API's. The app was built using Progressive Web Application technologies (PWA), so it is available even offline and can be installed on mobile and desktop from the browser (via add to Home Screen). Users who don't want to trust a website can built the app locally and run it as local html file. Currently the app is very simple, it doesn't have a chart or ROI, but this may be added in the future if there will be demand. This app uses cryptocurrency market data provided by the following public API's: CoinGeckoAlternativeCoinmarketcap Woot excited to see you using our API! Hope you like it and happy to hear any feedbacks you may have

I prefer coingecko to coinmarketcap as it gives better time periods for comparing crypto prices. Also it appears to be quicker to load than CMC. I use both but usually coingecko for a quick check
That is great to hear! Super happy that you believe our site to be better and faster. We continue working hard to improve CoinGecko everyday and thank you for using us in checking crypto price & data!

Hello Publish0x! CoinGecko Signing in! "To date, other than CoinGecko’s official blog and mainstream social media platforms, CoinGecko has also participated in two other blockchain based content platforms - Steem and Cent. It is interesting to see how all three platforms have significantly different implementations to the same idea and the community dynamics that resulted from it. We would like to be one of the earliest members of this platform and contribute to the growth of Publish0x. We foresee great potential for Publish0x and would not want to miss out on this platform." https://www.publish0x.com/coingecko-publish0x-blog/hello-publish0x-coingecko-signing-in-xzpyeWe are happy to play a role in Publish0x and contribute to the improvement of this ecosystem.

Is there a reason some coin prices randomly drop and then return to normal? This happens for multiple coins at once, and the same spike isn't seen in other price aggregators, so I'm wondering if there is some error in the math or something. Here is an example of what I'm talking about:
Hi MadZ, there is a minor glitch in our outlier detection and we will be pushing out a fix really soon to solve this outlier detection problem. Thanks for reporting.

First off, thanks for providing such a great service for free. I'm not a coder, but your API has inspired me to work on a little project.
2 questions
Would it be possible to add circulating_supply to /simple/price? I'm not sure if it is just due to rounding errors, but market_cap divided by price doesn't accurately calculate this number.
When querying multiple id's using /coins/markets, how is gecko_asc (or desc) sorted. Is there a valid value for the order parameter that returns the list of id's in the same order every time, regardless of fluctuations in market cap/volume. It doesn't seem to me that any of the options work this way.
Once again, am I complete noob to coding, so I hope my questions make sense.
Hi you can get the circulating supply in the /coins/{id} endpoint. Price * circulating supply will be equivalent to the market capitalization. You can read our methodology here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/methodologyFor further and more detailed guidance, feel free to email us at hello@coingecko.com. Thank you.

Here are 3 Interesting reads of the day 1. California Bill Proposes Crypto Tax Payments for Cannabis BusinessesCalifornia Assembly Bill 953 (AB-953), if passed, will allow for payment of taxes in Stablecoins. The bill defines Stablecoins as a digital asset that is pegged to the US dollar which serves as its collateral. California joins a growing list of jurisdictions introducing cryptocurrencies as a medium for taxation. https://dailyhodl.com/2019/03/01/california-bill-proposes-crypto-tax-payments-for-cannabis-businesses/2. Binance Dangles $100K in Crypto to Get Users to Test Its DEXBinance is hoping to boost the number of people testing its upcoming decentralized exchange (DEX) platform by giving away $100,000 in tokens. The initiative, he said, would help the exchange launch the mainnet, or live version, of Binance DEX more quickly. There would be 2 categories of prizes for the offering; one to see users issue and list the tokens, and the other to see how users trade and achieve returns on the DEX. https://www.coindesk.com/binance-puts-up-100000-in-tokens-to-get-users-testing-its-dex3.

It is easier to get caught in the bear sentiment when the market moves downwards in the short term, but totally agree that the market is actually still 5 to 6 times larger than what it was just a few years ago, which is relatively impressive when compared to any traditional markets

Entry strategy is rather more important than an exit strategy. If you bought in at a low price, you would not be over anxious about getting the market into bull run. Entry cost averaging might be the best entry strategy at this current market condition where you buy in a fixed amount every month regardless of the price. Then when the bull run really does come, don't be afraid to set an expected return and sell it when it hits the price. As long as you avoid being greedy thinking that it will go up forever, you should do great with a realistic expected return percentage.

In the past few months there were alot of buzz in the crypto space about STO, but that seems to have been toned down recently. Another increasingly popular topic seems to be dapps and NFT (non-fungible token) projects. What are your thoughts? Are there any other topics that is trending in market?
STO will never succeed in this market. It is certainly because STO has so many laws and is not free like the ICO. I think the trend in 2019 will be ICOs that are launched in big exchanges like BInance, Houbi, Okex the non-free effect has prevented STO from continuing successfully. maybe coins that will go into big markets like huobi and binance are needed by many people and this becomes a certainty in the midst of unstable market conditions. Totally agree that the fees and process that a project have to go through to get themselves up as an STO is sometimes not worth the effort. So cases like Bitorrent and Fetch AI is definitely the direction of where the market will be heading towards in the short term

People have very well known if those people are shillng STO just try to create marketing gimmick. ICO will still be the next trend. More than 1k dapps but there users are so low. Recently, fetch.ai has become the main topic of ico. Tokenization should be the next trend if you have watched facebook news. STO became the focus mainly due to banks and securities commissions around the world cracking down ICOs and trying to legitimize some of them through STO. Undoubtedly ICO will still be around for a while. Fetch AI market cap has just been updated on CoinGecko to $39 million, you can check it out here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/fetch-ai
