Coin Ticker: Bitcoin & Litecoin Prices for WordPress Widget (Plugin) – Official page

coin tickerSo as part of my new Bitcoin hobby I kind of got annoyed from the fact that I couldn’t find a normal WordPress plugin to show the latest Bitcoin & Litecoin prices. It kind of surprised me also since I thought that surely there would be tons of plugins that do this….but I guess I was wrong.

After searching the web for a few days I gave up and decided to just code the plugin myself. So now you can enjoy it too. So welcome to the official Coin Ticker Ver. 2.0 (you can see the actual plugin to your right).

What does the plugin do ?

The Coin ticker WordPress Plugin allows you to add a widget to your WordPress blog that shows you a ticker of the latest Bitcoin & Litecoin prices from different exchanges.

What features does the Bitcoin Ticker WordPress Widget (plugin) have ?

  • View 5 different Bitcoin exchanges – HitBTC, BTCe, BitStamp and Bitcoin Average.
  • Choose between Bitcoin and Litecoin prices.
  • Displays a graph of the prices in the last 24 hours / 7 days / 30 days.
  • Displays bid, ask, low, high and volume values of selected exchange.
  • Fully customisable – choose which currencies, exchanges and values to display.
