Finds the BTC values on any website and displays the live conversion to your currency.
Bitcoin Auto-Converter Extension
If a BTC value can't be found or you'd like to look up the currency for a different crypto-currency coin, then you can highlight and right-click to get a (configurable) list of alt-coin conversions.
A live BTC ticker can also be displayed in your toolbar which updates every 30 seconds along with the current volume and price change.
If you found this tool useful, please consider rating it and maybe writing a quick review for others who may also be interested.
Enjoy!
* Note:
Not all on-screen BTC values will be converted due to the way certain websites display them. For example, real-time tickers are dynamically written to the page, therefore cannot be converted in real-time. Others may use a graphical symbol in front or behind the BTC value, therefore the extension will not be able to find and convert it.
However, in these instances, you may still highlight the value and right-click to get conversions for all of the coins that you specify in the settings.
