I build a bitcoin price checker

[itarachiu]

https://1btc.to, Nothing crazy... is says only the price. I made this for me and for one of my friend very easy to remember, today I checked the analytics and I was surprised it was visited by about 100 users per day so I decided to add more currencies.

Only bitcoin, as the site name says.

How often does it update?

Every ten minutes

How often does it update?

You must hit the refresh price button, no automatically refresh.

UPDATE:
I added more functions:

1) JavaScript price update without reloading the page. Reloading the entire page was ruining the users experience. The price is now highlighting for each price update.

2) Copy to clipboard by clicking the price + notification.

3) I added all the currencies possible:
Examples:
https://1btc.to/?currency=usd
https://1btc.to/?currency=eur
https://1btc.to/?currency=gbp
https://1btc.to/?currency=aud
https://1btc.to/?currency=cad
https://1btc.to/?currency=inr
https://1btc.to/?currency=rub
https://1btc.to/?currency=cny

... and so on. Only 4 currencies are not available.

4) Responsive design.

More than 500-600 users per month seems to use this checker so because of that I said to make it better! It was a BS before, now is better

I am a person who often uses your site. Thank you!

I added more functions:

How about: Paint the price green, if its higher than the last, or red if its lower (and black for same)? You could also add some arrows for the colorblind people:

Code:

⇑ ⇓ ⇔

⇑ ⇓ ⇔

Is this any better than Coinmarketcap?

Glad to hear that!

I don't want to bash anyone but the point of my site was to strictly display the price for 1 bitcoin and that's it, no ads, no too much crazy information that you even maybe don't wanna see it. I'm sure every other price checkers like Coinmarketcap are fine.
