What is the Bitcoin price?whatisthebitcoinprice.comHi everyone, thought I would give myself a little weekend project. After looking at the current market share of MtGox declining, their price is becoming less relevant each day. So I thought there might be a better way to calculate the price of a bitcoin. The website collates all this information from all exchanges (thanks to BitcoinCharts) and produces a more accurate picture of what the price of a bitcoin is. The price takes into account latest trade, current bid/ask, how long ago the last trade was and volume.
JSON encoded data is provided for developers and merchants. It covers all the currencies and includes price, last_updated and volume.
Let me know of any bugs. Feedback is much appreciated!
Cheers!
