CoinThru Update - Multiple Altcoin Conversion Rates - Set Amount
Instant Altcoin Conversion Rates on CoinThru
A Little Home Page Polishing First…
One thing that needed fixing was the layout and options on the main page at CoinThru. Among the updates were improved node status indicators, page layout and instant exchange donation widgets. If you feel generous enough to donate, I want to take the extra work of manually completing the process, hence the donation widgets. Any donations sent this way will automatically convert to BTC and display in the total sent to the donation address upon confirmation.

You may have noticed the planned future nodes listed at the top of the page… I am not ready to become a Steemit witness yet as I have much more to contribute to the community before I am comfortable asking for witness votes. Therefore, I will continue to develop tools, especially for Steemit, and provide helpful posts. There will probably be a Monero node introduced sooner than those listed by the way. Have to get my feet wet a little more. 🙂
Before You Trade Altcoins, Check This Out…
Now you can enter a specific quantity of coins to convert!
“It’s not whether you’re right or wrong that’s important, but how much money_you make when you’re right_ and how much you lose when you‘re wrong.”
– George Soros
Let’s say you want to get the exchange rate for 0.25 BTC in ETH,USD,XMR,VRC,UNO (which is how you type the equivalent out). Enter your amount, from symbol and to symbol(s) then hit enter.
Your results are printed out at the standard amount of 1 in blue and your specific amount in green. Your inputs will also update the widget(s) with your first pair and amount for the instant exchange rate at Changelly and ShapeShift. Not all 1400+ altcoins are supported so you may get default pairs if your first doesn’t match.
More Options, More Informed Decisions
So, the idea behind rolling out the widgets was to offer the option to convert without logging into an exchange. On top of that, the rate is printed for each widget, which may be lower than the rate from the CryptoCompare API. For details on which exchanges have the best rates, just click the CryptoCompare link at the top of the page, enter your pair and check the markets.
“If you don’t like how things are, change it! You’re not a tree.”

Quantity IS quality! In this case anyway. You don’t want to trade 1 BTC for Ethereum or Monero every time. You most likely want to complete small trades, maybe 0.017 ETH for ? ZEC or UNO; plus what would that amount translate to in US Dollars, Euros or Yen?
I Don’t Know The Ticker Symbol for Exclusive Coin!
Click on the Search Altcoins List for Ticker Symbol button to get a paginated display of 1400+ altcoins with corresponding ticker symbol at 50 per page. Save tons of time by using the search feature at the top.
Searches are case-sensitive for the time being. Which means ‘exclusive coin’ will yield no matches, while ‘Exclusive Coin’ will. Update on this coming soon with a
strtolower()function. Find your ticker symbol, click it, get your conversion rates.
I hope you find this tool useful. Either way I really do appreciate feedback and respond to comments as quickly as possible. Don’t feel like commenting, leave an up-vote or resteem if you think others may find this post informative. Thank you for all your support!
nice with a little research you can make out big between exchanges
I've been looking into that a little actually.
One goal is to create a multi-coin explorer and multi-coin pair exchange. If I can get a solid package together that streamlines altcoin exchanging, I'll release it on github for decentralized use.
Steemit will be getting more of my attention pretty soon though. I'm still working out how I want to contribute, namely user-friendliness and overall usability.
Thanks for the vote of confidence! :)
hey this is really cool! Love the feature of being able to specify any amount of a coin to get the conversion to different pairs, and comparing the rates between exchanges is also super helpful! Resteeming this post :)
Glad it's useful, that's what I was going for. I need to go ahead and finish building that ShapeShift widget off the API too. The prices listed are average market rates, while the widgets are actual instant exchange rates. Should include some market breakdowns as well.
Thanks for the feedback and the re-steem!
great info.. if we reseach something new we can earn more profit... also cut our unnecessary charges... follow this website then purchase altcoins...thanks sir
That's the idea. :) I hope to keep building on that concept, @ujjaval. Time efficiency is just as important as cost efficiency.
