A Python package for acquiring both historical and current data of cryptocurrencies

Hi there 👋

coinsta's Issues

How to get a specific coin when there are multiple of them with the same symbol?

Some symbols have multiple coins with the same symbol, e.g. SNT. How do I reference a specific one? Basically same issue as here guptarohit/cryptoCMD#21.

Getting tags and on number of watchlists

On a coin's page, it has tags and shows how many people have the coin their watchlist. Is it possible to get this data?

Unable to scrap certain coin symbols

Some symbols such as yoyow and gxc is not recognized.

coinsta.exceptions.WrongCoinCode: 'YOYOW' is unavailable on CoinMarketCap.com. Please check the website for the right ticker information code

Converting BTC values to GBP and EUR

Hi Bernard

I'm currently using the following code which derives the current value of BTC against US Dollars:

# import the Current class
from coinsta.core import Current

# get current market information on a specified crypto
btc_current = Current.get_current('btc') # a pandas dataframe object

#print(btc_current)
btc_current_price = btc_current.loc['price'] [0]
print(btc_current_price)

However, as I live in the UK, it would be really useful to be able to derive the current value of BTC against GBP (British Pounds), and maybe even EUR (Euros)!

Best regards,
Niall

Detail of data

Hi!

Are the OHLC candles daily? I didn't understand it from readme. Is there any intent to support more detailed data, perhaps minute candles?
