1. INTRODUCTION

Cryptocurrencieshaveexpeditiouslygainedprominenceas decentralized digital assets, offering benefits like transparency and lower transaction costs. However, the intrinsical volatility of cryptocurrencies presents consequentialchallengesforinvestorsandtraderswhomust perpetually monitor and analyse price trends to make apprised decisions. A cryptocurrency price tracker is an essential implement for surmounting these challenges, providing genuine-time market data, enabling efficient portfolio management, and offering advanced analytical implements. This paper explores the design and implementation of a cryptocurrency price tracker, while additionallyexaminingpotentialadvancementsandfuture features that could further enhance its utility for users in navigatingtheinvolutionsofthecryptocurrencymarket.

Problem Definition

The cryptocurrency market operates 24/7, with prices perpetually fluctuating due to factors such as ecumenical events,marketsentiment,andtechnologicaladvancements. This constant activity makes it arduous for investors and traders to track price forms of kineticism accurately and understandemergingmarkettrends.Moreover,theabsence ofcentralizedregulationintegratesintricacytotheprocess, heightening the desideratum for dependable implements
