Thanks for the kind words and for the suggestion.
There's already an issue for this request: https://github.com/sal0max/currencies/issues/8 The opinion I expressed there didn't change much.
Also, there's this open issue with wrong exchange rates for some crypto currencies with the API provider: https://github.com/Formicka/exchangerate.host/issues/37
Maybe you can use another site for cryptocurrencies? Your app is very handy
You'd have to propose a reliable and free API, @Wjxfi .
And still... I can understand that request, but I'm still not fully convinced. Let's start with collecting reliable APIs...
https://www.f-droid.org/packages/de.cloneapps.crypto_prices/
this huge application (50+ mb) uses coingecko
coingecko is not open source, but it is better than the rest. It's also used by unstoppable wallet
'
https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.arturkowalczyk300.cryptocurrencyprices This application also uses something
That app (https://github.com/judemont/CryptoTracker/tree/main) seems to use following APIs. Both APIs aren't free.
https://developers.coinranking.com/api/
https://www.coingecko.com/en/api
The developer seems to have multiple API-Keys in his app (publically viewable!), which for sure is against the TOCs of the providers...
If I'd add one of them, I'd have to do it like I did with Open Exchangerates: Let the user create a personal key and enter it in the app.
The bigger issue is the caching mechanism, which my app embraces. Say, how up-to-date would the crypto currencies in general have to be at least?
Hello,
Very nice looking app first of all
I regularly pay some people in bitcoin and it would be a nice addon if this app would support some cryptocurrencies. maybe as an addition setting to enable support would be nice.
Kind regards, Herman
