Finance site Marketwatch.com has a crypto section

in #bitcoin6 years ago

I haven't visited the Marketwatch.com finance site for a while and went in for a peek at the conventional stock markets the other day. Well they have a small section for cryptos now. (Top left of page, the last listing to the right)
The short list shows BTC, ETH, Ripple, BCH, LTC and Monero

When you click on Bitcoin, it takes you to a page with the price, daily chart, key data and the latest crypto news

When you click on 'chart', it takes you to a page that would typically show a stock. There are quite a few technical indicators that you can apply to the chart, similar to the tradingview site.
Below is the year to date daily chart with a 50 day moving average. MACD is below the chart.

The headlines from the news section. The Google billionaire Sergey Brin mining ETH for fun? lol

They have a related cryptos section with a few notable coins/tokens. Prices are both in USD and Euros

I'll speculate that when the crypto market completes this bear market, more conventional finance sites will list crypto news, charts and quotes. Reason being? Maybe because they want their crypto investing patrons to stay on their website instead of going to a crypto specific site for the latest quotes/news/charts.

More eyeballs and time on the site allows them to chart for ad space....$$$
