Is there a public block explorer? If so, I can add it to CoinChoose.

Great! Now just need a public block explorer!

I had this in the alternative currency sub-forum, but thought i'd also announce it here. I launched a site that shows the best crypto coin to mine at any given time, plus the best exchange rate (into BTC) for such crypto coin linked to the exchange. A 12 hour graph showing profitability is available along with an API to get all data from the site.

It is located at http://www.coinchoose.com.

Comments / suggestions / blinding flashes of insight are all welcome.

Thank you both - tips sent.

Added ByteCoin back since I can now scrap the pricing from an exchange.

Yes - at least compared to Bitcoin (see http://www.coinchoose.com).

Seems like this has stopped updating - is this the case?

Yeah - that is a problem relying on public block explorers.....I may switch to internal (as I do with a few of the other coins), if it doesn't update soon

Genius - can I send you a small tip?

- Put the orders in the buy orderbook the other way around, so the order that will be filled first is at the top (like in other exchanges), right now it's at the bottom.

Done, and also pushed some bug fixes.

I will start working on an API and graph as soon as I have some time (working on another project atm).

If you can do something quick and dirty on the API (just getting price info like https://bter.com/api/1/ticker/frc_btc) - that would be awesome so that I can get you on CoinChoose (and point some additional traffic).

I have to restrain myself heavily from saying:

this coin is the biggest piece of shit ever made

don't waste your time... fuck you occupy

If this is a ban-able offense please inform me and i will edit my post.

Not sure if it is bannable

, but specifics would be nice. Why do you dislike it?

Freicoin is now trading on Vircurex and it looks like there is an order that is really high!

Nope - just get the price. SImple scraper.

I need a quick and dirty PHP script written that scrapes the highest price for converting Bytecoin into BTC as posted here - http://exchange.bytecoin.in/.

Any takers?

It helps - but I am so bad at screen scraper stuff - I will take a look. All they need is a simple API (I have asked but nothing yet).

I purchased a few days ago and still haven't received it. I think the seller says he is working thru the orders - but just a warning....

Can you explain a bit more about feathercoin? The chart says 400% profitability but most of the calculators iv used are putting me in the whole by almost 50% after 24 hours haha.

basically when you factor in the difficulty, exchanging it to BTC would yield to 400% more satoshis than mining BTC alone. Now my pricing is based on the best exchange.

Now the most profitable exchange is the price that is used, plus that exchange is hyperlinked. Only missing Cryponit for now, but since the support is unavailable this weekend, I will wait to add it.

Now just need the new cryptos (looking at you Bytecoin and CHNCoin) to have an API enabled exchange....
