Bitcoin price widget and/or plugin

[tommarques]

Wouldn't be a great addition to the forum a tiny box with live price of bitcoin? The pair could be changed acording to the country of living for some users.

Some sort of plugin could update the price written in any post with a click. The amount of bitcoins written years ago could be calculated with today's price.

Ex:

I just want to report that I successfully traded 10,000 bitcoins [3,900,000.00 USD] for pizza.

No.

Stop focusing on bitcoins price in fiat it has value beyond that. The bounty by theymos is not pegged to fiat either, but to gold. There will be no such box here.

Bitcoin price is based on supply and demand and since Bitcointalk is not an exchange , I don't see how they are going to do it anyway (I know we can trade bitcoin but it's nothing organized) .
So they will have to use Bitstamp API or Blockchain.info or something and I don't see the point of it honestly , you could just visit an exchange or preev.com , check the price and trade .
and for "changing depends the country" , most of Bitcoiners prefer to be annonymus and they use Tor or VPNs which means that currency will be more then likely wrong .
