Introduction

Hi guys. My friend and I made an open-source Discord Bot that lets you quickly check cryptocurrency stats and also perform tasks such as wallet generation, currency conversion, scanning, etc. . This is our first beta release, and you can check the code at github.com/DisCrypto/DisCrypto-Discord - pull requests welcome. We'd like to share some of the features of this bot, and what we plan to do next with it.

How to Use

You can add the bot to your server with our invite link https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=411996950670344234&permissions=0&scope=bot and start interacting with it via %help

Feature Summary

  • $[coin] - you can prefix any coin symbol (i.e btc, eth, xmr) with the $ sign and it'll show you price/marketcap/volume . This is inspired by the altpocket's command if you notice the similarity :)
  • %scan [address|txid] [coin] - basically a block explorer for an account or transaction address (currently for btc, eth only)
  • %coininfo [coin]- this will show you important links for that currency such as website, block explorer, forums, bitcointalk announcement, etc.
  • %convert [amount] [from_symbol] [to_symbol]- you can easily convert from one currency to another (i.e convert 100 btc lsk)
  • %genwallet - create wallet where keys will be sent to you via DM in discord.

And of course, we also have some fun commands for entertainment

  • %flippening - check to see when eth overtakes btc
  • %shitcoin - it'll randomly generate a fake shitcoin for you that has some absurd valuations for everyone to talk shit about.

Plans for the future

  • Tipping
    We want to allow users to tip other discord users with cryptocurrency using our discord bot. You'll basically interact with the bot via DM, where you can create a tipping account, check balance, and send tips to a target user if you have sufficient balance. We're still working on implementation details, but we might start with btc/eth or nano as tipping currency. If you guys have any suggestions, feel free to let us know.
  • Steem integration
    Whenever I talk about cryptocurrency with friends, I always bring about steemit as being one of the actual dapps that already has a great adoption on an existing blockchain, and I'm really excited to be more involved with the community, help it grow and build tools for it. To start, we plan to add scan support for steem usernames. Like before, suggestions welcome!
