To everyone’s perplexity, Google doesn’t have live price charts for Bitcoin or other recommended cryptocurrencies. He said people who frequently search for queries such as “Bitcoin price” or “Ethereum price” will notice that the chart section that was present since 2018 is gone.
This change took effect a few days ago, but it’s still unclear if this is a temporary issue or if the tech giant has decided to change this policy permanently. So far, official statements from Google have not explained why cryptocurrency price charts are no longer supported. Many believe that it could be part of the so-called trials that occur from time to time and are run by Google’s algorithms. Perhaps it may have something to do with the upcoming US election.
Cryptocurrency decoding charts have been removed, but stock and index charts will still appear in Google search results. Previously, users could easily find streams containing the current prices of popular cryptocurrencies directly from the search page without having to open other sites.
Google Finance as an alternative, but uncertainty remains in crypto price charts
For cryptocurrency enthusiasts who want to track prices, information is available on Google Finance. However, the recent flow of activity on the platform, as observed on October 7th, indicates that there may be a technical flaw in the display of real-time data of cryptocurrency prices.
Google continues to not comment on the situation, but crypto users can only wait to see if the charts return and if this becomes the new standard for providing crypto information. At the moment, users may need to visit other applications or social networks to find the latest information on cryptocurrency prices.
Cryptocurrency enthusiasts are hoping that either Google decides to restore the functionality or other alternatives will be the next choice for fast redirection of cryptocurrency prices.
