Bitverter - A simple Bitcoin conversion tool

Bitverter is a simple tool written in Rust for doing cryptocurrency conversions. The beta release supports denomination conversions only.

Work in progress, please check back or feel free to reach out with any questions or comments :)

Building, Testing, and Usage

Currently Bitverter is only built for the Linux command line. If you are even a little comfortable with this, it will be no problem to run. Please stay tuned for a GUI/Web version.

  1. Install Rust using rustup (https://rustup.rs/)
  2. Open a terminal and clone the git repo

git clone https://github.com/kn0wmad/bitverter.git

  1. Navigate to the CLI program folder

cd bitverter/bitverter_cli

  1. Run the tests (optional)

cargo test

  1. Run the program

cargo run
