Choose from four styles — a full-width scrolling price ticker for your header, a single-coin card, a top-coins market list, or a crypto fiat converter. Prices update automatically in the visitor’s browser, so there is **no API key, no sign-up, and nothing to configure to get started**.

The plugin does not bundle that script or the price data; it builds an embed URL and loads them from the service. This is what keeps the plugin small and lets prices stay current without a plugin update. **What data is sent, and when** * **On every page view where the widget is displayed**, the visitor’s browser requests the widget script from `https://widget.currency.wiki/crypto/v3/script.js`, and then the price file from `https://cdn.currency.wiki/crypto/quotes.json`. The script request carries the display settings you configured (style, theme, accent color, coin list, quote currency, language) as URL parameters, plus a `source =wp` marker indicating the request came from the WordPress plugin. As with any web request, the visitor’s IP address and user agent are visible to the server. * **No personal data is collected, and no cookies are set.** Prices are public market data; nothing about your visitor is sent beyond the ordinary contents of an HTTP request. * **In the WordPress admin**, two screens show live previews from `https://widget. currency.wiki/crypto/v3/embed` (each flagged `preview=1` so it is not counted as a site using the widget), which send the same display settings listed above: the plugin’s settings screen renders a small gallery of the four styles, and the block editor renders a live preview while you configure a block. No personal data is sent from the admin; these are the same public price requests described above. **Terms and privacy** * Terms of Service: https://currency.wiki/terms-of-service * Privacy Policy: https://currency.wiki/privacy-policy ## Screenshots [⌊Scrolling price ticker — stretches full-width, perfect for headers⌉⌊Scrolling price ticker — stretches full-width, perfect for headers⌉[ Scrolling price ticker — stretches full-width, perfect for headers [⌊Coin card with live price, 24h change, market cap and volume⌉⌊Coin card with live price, 24h change, market cap and volume⌉[ Coin card with live price, 24h change, market cap and volume [⌊Market list with top coins and a crypto converter⌉⌊Market list with top coins and a crypto converter⌉[ Market list with top coins and a crypto converter [⌊Gutenberg block with live preview⌉⌊Gutenberg block with live preview⌉[ Gutenberg block with live preview [⌊Dark theme with a custom accent color⌉⌊Dark theme with a custom accent color⌉[ Dark theme with a custom accent color ## Blocks This plugin provides 1 block. * Crypto Price Ticker ## FAQ ### Do I need an API key? No. Live prices are served from a fast, globally cached CDN endpoint maintained by Currency.Wiki. There is nothing to sign up for. ### How often do prices update? Price data is refreshed on the server every 15 minutes, and each widget re-checks for new prices every few minutes in the visitor’s browser. ### Which coins are supported? Over 60 of the top cryptocurrencies by market cap, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, BNB, Dogecoin, Cardano, TRON, Chainlink, Litecoin, and more. Unknown symbols are ignored safely. ### Can I show prices in my local currency? Yes. The ticker, list, and coin card can display prices in USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, INR, BRL, RUB, TRY, or IDR. The converter also converts crypto to crypto. ### Does it slow down my site? No. The widget loads asynchronously and is only a few kilobytes. It does not block page rendering. ### Does it collect any data? No. The widget sets no cookies and collects no personal data from your visitors. ### Is this financial advice? No. Prices are informational only, aggregated from public market data, and can lag the live market. Always verify prices on an exchange before trading. ### Does it add a link to my site? Not unless you ask it to. The “Powered by Currency.Wiki” credit is **off by default**. You can turn it on under **Crypto Widget Settings**, or per embed with `branding ="1"`. The widget looks and works exactly the same either way. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Currency.Wiki Crypto Price Ticker” is open source software.
