3 years ago The exchanges rates data are retrieved from the ECB (https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml) and https://www.mycurrency.net.
The ECB data are updated at the end of each weekday. The other data source seem to be updated more often. The exchange rates in the ECB data are however relatively stable.
Further inaccuracies are introduced when converting between the two data sets.

3 years ago Ok, so this is expected behavior. Ok then, thanks for the clarification. Do you think I should close this issue then?

6 months ago Where does the bitcoin rate come from and how often is it updated, I thought it came from Coinbase?
Right now Qalculate is showing BTC=$51k and coinbase is showing 56k.

After exchange rates update (before restart), the bitcoin rate from another source (with rate from yesterday) were used. This has now been fixed.

6 months ago Ok, thanks for the rapid fix.
Simply put, it fetches the exchange rates but none of them seem to match the values of today.
I suppose it is somehow fetching outdated data, since it's only missing the conversions by a few cents for the most important currencies (like the dollar or the Euro);
