Another horrible day. It's like going all the way back to February. 
___If you're going to post 2 charts per day, why repeat 4 of the currencies?
Don't you have sources for another 4 currencies?
I was thinking something similar. ___If you're going to post 2 charts per day, why repeat 4 of the currencies?

I was thinking that any second table would be all different currencies from the first table.
So maybe the first table would be the five currencies that we traditionally have had...and then so the second table would not repeat any of the 5 currencies from the first table, and so maybe it would be preferable to have like 7 different currencies on that second table.. so that just on the face of it, we can see the difference in terms of the size of the font, etc etc. and maybe some guys would ONLY look at the first table. but then they would have the option to look at the second table...
Regarding currencies I'm of the mind that only the first table is really necessary - I consider this is about showing the big picture, i.e. "How is BTC doing across a range of major currencies?" and for that purpose 5 is more than enough.
I also think top 20 (as originally) is probably enough, though of course we'd lose some relevant info when one of the days is outside the top 20.
Of course I'm not the one doing the work!
For sure DirtyKeyboard is doing the work, and in terms of consumption, members (and the public as a whole who might look at this thread and not be a member) is going to be advantaged by more information rather than less, even though it might be more cumbersome for DK to put together and to maintain more information rather than less. Both the addition of further currencies, up to 5 and the adding of more top days from 20 to 50 and to 100 happened under dooglus in the 2017 cycle.. so the tradition has already been there, even though there had been some loss of figuring out how to keep the initial 5 going - which DK seemed to have had resolved that issue quite well and even potentially presenting us with information beyond the wildest of our expectations.... and in some sense making the project his own... .... we had a few weeks trying to figure out if we could find any member to do this... . and you never know, with more currencies, the information might start to resonate with more members, since surely bitcoin is a worldly phenomena.. yet.. in terms of getting the state of bitcoin, we might not even need to go beyond the USD/BTC pair in order to pretty much figure it out... at least generally.
It seems that when there is a choice to present more information, then one of the main things would be to present such additional information so that it does not become confusing, and so maybe in that regard, the priority surely would be the top table and even the USD/BTC pair, and so there could be ways to narrow down the data and to go back to emphasizing that - yet I doubt that any of us are really disadvantaged by having more data, and even up to 12 currencies, if DK is willing to do that, as long as the information is not confusing, and in regards to further clarification to distinguish one table from the other, there could potentially be some kind of color scheme that is added to either one or the other of the tables in order to further distinguish (at a glance) the one table from the other (like the opposite of the last line from Animal Farm).
