Monitor Bitcoin values and trends via Winkdex
By Mellisa Tolentino, siliconangle.com
Bitcoin enthusiasts now have a new platform they can use to track down the value of the virtual currency, and it’s all thanks to those Bitcoin-lovin’ Winklevoss Twins.
The Winklevoss Twins, Tyler and Cameron, are famous for their legal battle with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, whom they accused of stealing their idea for the world famous social network. The twins have moved on from that case, and are now known as two of the highest-profile proponents of Bitcoin, and are pushing for the mainstream adoption of the virtual currency.
Dubbed as Winkdex, obviously the name is taken from their surname, it’s a platform that uses values from six currency exchanges to get an approximation of Bitcoin’s value. It uses BitFinex, Bitstamp, BTC-e, CampBX, localBTC, and MtGox. Winkdex aims to make Bitcoin more detailed and transparent, allowing for an easier way to track the value of the virtual currency.
