Cryptocurrency prices never stop moving, as the market exists in a constant state of flux. There are instances, though, when it’s useful to be able to hit the pause button and view the price of a cryptocurrency at a fixed point in time.

Snapshot Widget Shows Crypto Prices Frozen in Time

If you’re composing an article that addresses cryptocurrency prices at a specific point in time, it may be beneficial to have a visual representation. Until recently, your options were limited to screenshotting the chart and then embedding the image into your report. Blockmodo has now created a snapshot tool that provides a cleaner, lighter and less laborious alternative. Its price widgets page provides the ability to include a snapshot price quote, accompanied by relevant market data. The code can then be embedded into your blog or website as HTML, where it will form an aesthetically pleasing miniature chart.

A snapshot widget can be particularly useful for situations where you want to be able to show context to readers. This might be because a particular digital asset has just experienced sudden volatility or passed an all-time high, for example.

A snapshot of Bitcoin Cash’s price was taken on June 17th, 2019. The price was 429.91 USD with an open price of 427.06 USD. Bitcoin Cash price quote.

Use a Streaming Widget for Real-Time Data

In addition to its snapshot widgets, Blockmodo provides more conventional streaming widgets that display the live price of a particular digital asset. Alternatively, for real-time data on BCH and BTC, Bitcoin.com provides a host of streaming widgets. Our bitcoin cash and bitcoin core widgets have recently been updated to reflect Bitcoin.com’s new branding. Available in white or black, Bitcoin.com widgets are finished in a tasteful green, and provide live updates on the state of the bitcoin markets, pegged to various fiat currencies.
