Bitcoin Price Notification script

A simple script made using python.

What It Can Do?

• Tracks the bitcoin price for every _ minutes and stores it in a list.
• When the list gets filled, it will send the data to your telegram app.
• If the bitcoin price falls below a certain threshold value, then it will send an immediate telegram message.

Modifications:

Changed CoinMarketCap API endpoint to 'quote' and limited the request to only the market symbol you are interested in.

• Select cryptocurrency symbol (can also be used for other cryptocurrencies such as ETH)
• Convert quote to different FIAT currency (ie. EUR instead of hardcoded USD)

To Make It Work...

To make this script work, you will need the following:

• coinmarketcap.com api token
• A telegram bot and it's token.
• Your telegram account's chat_id
• And Python3!
