ckandr (Crypto KA Naya Desi Rate)


ckandr is a python-based command-line application Cryptocurrency prices from popular Indian cryptocurrency exchanges. There are already some great command-line cryptocurrency price ticker tools like Coinmon and it's python port Pycoinmon. ckandr is heavily inspired by both these projects. However, both these projects get their data from CoinMarketCap's API. This is of no use to Indian investors who are investing through Indian exchanges like Koinex, ZebPay and others. ckandr aims to solve this problem by fetching prices from these sites. (and more to follow soon)

For all you non-Hindi speaking people out there, ckandr is a play on a Hindi word, Sikander, which means a "warrior" or "defender". And the pseudo-acronym of ckandr, Crypto KA Naya Desi Rate, just means the latest price of cryptocurrencies in Rupees.
