How to get real time BTC price

[Little Mouse]

In blockchain.com explorer, we used to see the price of BTC when it was transacted. For example I have sent $500 now. It may increase or decrease tomorrow. How can I check what was the price when I sent it? It was possible in previous blockchain explorer but not now anymore.

You can go to Coindesk and choose your Hours , Day , week or month you wanted to know the price for !

There are so many other Websites that you can make this too , and thats just one i found when i typed it in Google!

https://www.coinbase.com/price/bitcoin   here you can do the same .

Your transaction has the right time in it just look with that on the chart.

It's amazing that someone still uses that explorer. Does it support segwit yet?

Try blockchair.com - it has point-in-time USD prices. Example of an old block:

https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/block/300000

You can toggle between USD and BTC values.

You can toggle between USD and BTC values.

I can see the current price but I can't see the price when the amount was transacted. In blockchain explorer, I used to see the current price and the price at the time of the transaction. I can't see it anymore in the new version.

Did you check the link I posted? Go to that site and put your tx id in. Does it show the USD/BTC toggle like this:

Thats what you meaning is not that what the OP wants to know !
He dont wanted to know the value of usd for the BTC .
Ha wanted to know the price that Bitcoin was at the time he has done the Transaction.

Thats what i am understanding.

[Wexnident]

Are you talking about something like this? Or are you looking for the transaction history of YOUR account/wallet? Cause if so, there's also this:



If what I understand is correct, its either of the two that you are actually looking for. The Site I used to take sc's was Binance, but I'm pretty sure any type of exchange has this type of feature. No need to get hung up in blockchain explorer so much tbh.

He has shared the correct one. It only shows the price of the transaction which I thought the current price  
I found explorer.bitcoin.com more comfortable since it shows the both. Thank you two.

I have tried almost all major block explorers. But none of them offer what you are saying in this thread.
I use Electrum where I get the value of my transacted BTC at the time it was sent.

[OmegaStarScream]

Electrum is your best bet as suggested above. If you don't have a wallet there, import your address and use the watch-only feature.

If you're a programmer, you could take a look at BitcoinAverage API. It allows you to get the price at any given timestamp.

I don't like the new design of the blockchain.com block explorer, and I especially dislike how they make you go through a prompt about which blockchain you want to search into if you search with an address, also including Bcash there... But the feature where the value at the time of transaction was included is still there. Just search the transaction hash and it should be there at the bottom. For example:

Searching for: 12a7580280a67d7da6695eb01b798100385e0e04072dd155c98cd63fadd638c5
You will see the following:

How can you say that after it's been posted that two major explorers actually show the price? Even blockchain.com itself shows it somewhere as alani123 pointed out. Looks like you didn't read the thread and didn't try anything.

Well, I read the thread and thought OP wants both the "Sent" and "current" price of the transaction. Just like EtherScan. And I use Electrum. So I can definitely say about it right? Everyone can say what they think, can't they?

This may require a bit of manual work but you can use Blockfolio to achieve what you require.
It is a mobile app where you can enter the amount of BTC or any other altcoin you transact at the given date and time and it will keep you updated with the value change and also the value of it when it was transacted in any currency fetching prices from supported exchanges.
