Deprecation warning

⚠️ Since v0.3, as CoinmarketCap v1 API has been deprecated, all working sources require an API key to fetch data. The legacy free (but broken!) source coinmarketcap-free is however still available, hoping for a workaround is found (see here).

Install

pip install btc-cycles

Usage

Bitcoin price data is fetched from a set of available sources, such as:
- coinmarketcap, requires paid api_key.
- coincompare, requires free-tier api_key.
- coinmarketcap-free: free (but broken!) legacy source, available hoping for a workaround, (see here)
Cycles are computed considering past halving dates and the expected future halving date fetched from watchguru
