Cant help with a calendar but check out https://coinspectator.com/ for all the latest news and altcoin announcements in real time. You can also check out the ICO section - https://coinspectator.com/events/icos

Thanks for the feedback! I originally did have an RSS feed but it started getting abused and so had to remove. That said in the future if there is enough interest I may offer an API so that paid services can use make use of my news feed directly.

Thanks again for the kind words, had a lot of fun working on the project.

Another update.

- Added even more sources. Over 200 sources and counting
- Cleaned up the site massively, even less clutter so you can fully concentrate on the news
- Improved mobile view
- Improved page loading times and applied other performance tweaks
- Tweaked sidebar so its less obstructive
- Added an ICO section. This lists all the latest and upcoming ICO's including added resources like project websites, whitepapers, social accounts, communication channels and development channels). This allows you can check if a project is legit within seconds

- Added sponsors (donations failed miserably, hopefully with enough steady sponsors I don't have to pay out of my own pocket to maintain the website)

Let me know if you want to see anything else, have any constructive feedback etc.

Hi all, just another update.

- Add a light/dark theme now to make day/night use easier on the eyes.

Thanks for sharing, thats awesome if anyone in the group has any feedback, feature request etc feel free to say

Thanks! Glad you like it. I'm trying to keep it as simple and clutter free as possible

Hi all,

Just an update.

- Fixed a number of bugs
- Added even more sources.
- added source categorisation
- added a source filter so you can now enable/ disable sources based on your own preference
- Simplified up the UI
- made the platform more mobile friendly
- added a collapsable sidebar
- added the option to show/ hide news excerpts below headlines

Things I'm hoping to work on:

- add the option to select what coins are displayed
- Add currency options for the coins displayed (currently only USD)
- Add a light/dark theme option (day/night mode)
- ??

Keep the feedback (good or bad) coming. Seeing people actually use the site keeps me motivated to continue working on the project lol.

Thank you for your kind words!

Does anyone have any feature requests? At the moment I am going to be looking at implementing two things:

- the option to turn on/ off sources so users can personalise what news is displayed
- add an option to show a little bit of the story (maybe a sentence or two) under each headline to add context to a headline

Both of these would be opt-in features so the site will continue to work as is however gives users the option to further customise.

What are your thoughts?

Also if you can think of any good news sources to add please let me know. Hopefully as a community we can build this up in to the ultimate resource for crypto news.

Thanks

Yep, have a look it includes CoinFox.

Thanks, someone on reddit was looking for a simple balance checker so I just made it for him/ her. The cool thing about that balance checker is that you can also check multiple balances by url adding params

For example:

https://coinspectator.com/eth/balances?addresses=0xAf5cdBbabdEaA5F79Eb7dbAc4C2884A54Ba5Bc05,0xAf5cdBbabdEaA5F79Eb7dbAc4C2884A54Ba5Bc05,0xAf5cdBbabdEaA5F79Eb7dbAc4C2884A54Ba5Bc05

The above gets the balance for 3 addresses (for the example they are the same addresses repeated but of course they would all be different in a real use case). So it gets the balance for each address and then also totals them up as well.

Thanks! Glad you like it. The coin stats are taken from Coinmarketcap (https://coinmarketcap.com/). Thanks for reminding me, I need to credit them at the bottom, totally forgot.

Thanks, I really appreciate that. I want to avoid putting adverts on but not sure how I will fund this longterm because at the moment I'm just paying for it myself (which is totally fine for now). But as its getting bigger I will need to think of something. I've had about $5 worth of tips but clearly that route isn't going to work I don't think. Forget time and effort, domain and hosting alone cost me a lot more then that hehe... maybe I should run an ICO LOL ... just kidding.

Also fixed the bug now carlfebz2. It was an IE polyfill that I forgot to add   All fixed now though. Please do let me know how you get on. Also if you can update the post/ remove the broken image that would be awesome (don't want to put people off when its been fixed!).

EDIT - FIXED

Thats not good is it! A bit useless like that hehe.

It looks like the javascript areas are having some loading issues in that browser. Let me look in to this. Can I ask what browser and version you are using please

In the mean time in case you are wondering how it **should** look maybe open in Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc as it works great in them. Really sorry about this and thanks for reporting

EDIT - FIXED

I'm back! Sorry all, I didn't seem to get any initial feedback (which is understandable as I had no previous posts) so forgot about checking back up on it and randomly remembered today.

Super happy that you all approve! On reddit it also went down a treat which I'm really chuffed at. As a web developer I don't really know enough to get involved with a lot of the crypto type dev so its nice to be able to give back to the community in my own way.

I am trying to keep it extra clean and relevant so do try and carry out some spam detection. Hopefully this will keep the news quality as high as possible

If you have any constructive feedback or feature requests please do let me know.

Thanks again

Hi all,

Long time lurker here.

I just wanted to share a side project that I've built. I originally made it for myself but after seeing so many people looking for a good solution I decided to tidy it up and throw it on a domain so everyone can use it.

The aim was to come up with a way to quickly and easily keep up to date with the latest cryptocurrency news, regardless of if you're on a smartphone or desktop (and with minimal effort). Literally all I have to do is just scroll a bit and I'm up to date with the days news!

It pulls news from a wide range of sources including mainstream media, crypto specific news sites, blogs, official project sites, twitter, ICO launches, crypto announcement forums, steemit cryptocurrency, the announcements on bitcointalk and even the cryptocurrency Reddit! Over 130 sources in total (and growing).

You can check it out here:
https://coinspectator.com/

I hope this helps, it was a fun little project to hack on. If you have any requests just post and I'll see what I can do.

If you are feeling generous feel free to tip (its the only source of income to run the site - no adverts or annoying BS are displayed on the site... registration isn't even required):

Have fun!
