I'd like to ask you all another newb question, with regards to quickly being able to do the math on bitcoin price. Specifically, when you're on the exchange and you're wanting to buy/sell. I'm used to everything being priced in U.S dollars, so I'm having something of a hard time figuring out exactly how much I'm buying. Since the exchanges only deal in the price of bitcoin, and won't tell you how much you're paying in USD.
When I go to buy something and I see a price like "0.00000380 BTC" I have a hard time figuring out how much USD I'll be spending to buy x amount of that coin. How do you deal with this? Especially with the constant flux of the price of bitcoin.
Which exchange are you using? I'd be shocked if they didn't provide that conversion. Coinbase provides that conversion and does so easily and always using their website or mobile app.
Coindesk has fallen away from my use. Their mobile app is practically unusable and their pricing quotes and history takes forever to populate and calculate.
