This is cool, but I wish coincap.io was more transparent about their data sourcing. Which exchange(s) is/are they sourcing from? This data can't be coming from ShapeShift (the owners of coincap.io), since prices on coincap.io are in USD while you cannot trade in fiat whatsoever on Shapeshift.

Thanks :-) BTW you can change fiat currency in the app and on coincap's website as well.

Hm, I wonder if coincap just takes generic cryptocurrency prices and converts them at going exchange rates. I.e., the prices aren't 100% tradeable.
