Great site! Smiley

Any plans to add more (possibly all from site) currencies to API?

We have released API for global averages at https://api.bitcoinaverage.com/ticker/global/*. You now have all possible world currencies available in the API.
Also this explanation chart tells how all these global averages are calculated.

Is there any way to get historical data going back more than 24 hours?  I found https://api.bitcoinaverage.com/history/USD/per_minute_24h_global_average_sliding_window.csv but am really looking for data going further back (daily would be fine).

ETA: Actually, I can't make sense of the URL above.... the "USD global average" column seems to be blank unless LibreOffice messed up the CSV import...

Thanks

Hmm, I've checked that file, I see what you mean - headers are messed up, while the data itself is fine. I'll fix that soon.

Historical data - hmm, we're saving data daily, but it's not available online, only by request. I can get it for you if you need, just ask. It will be daily per-minute CSVs, but it's not going to long in the past, as we've started tracking global averages not so long ago.
