CoinStats

What is the project about?

CoinStats is a NodeJS Cryptocurrency Statistic Bot for Steemit or other Platforms. CoinStats retrieves the last 24 historical data for specified coins and generates line chart images from it. These images are uploaded directly to the LBRY Blockchain and a Markdown File is generated, which will be uploaded to Steemit.

The idea behind this project is to have an easy way of gathering and presenting the latest cryptocurrency statistics for specifics coins, without doing anything. Also I wanted to work with LBRY Blockchain and Cryptocompare's API!

Technology Stack

CoinStats is written in JavaScript and uses NodeJS for running. Also does CoinStats used Spee.ch to upload images directly to the LBRY Blockchain and Cryptocompare is used for historical coin data. Charts are generated with ChartJS Open Source Project.
