Inspiration
The way technology has grown in the past couple of years and the way terms like blockchain and cryptocurrencies have attracted attention is brilliant, and it is the advancement in technology that inspires. People have started seeing cryptocurrencies as potential asset classes and a way to store their money in future. The problem with that, however, is that the crypto market and prices of cryptocurrencies are very volatile in themselves, which makes it difficult for few people to invest or trade. We wanted to create a one-stop solution for all crypto geeks or for someone who has a lot of interest and wants to keep themselves updated with the market trends.
What it does
Our project is a cryptocurrency website that uses Rapid API to fetch real-time information and deliver comprehensive insights to users. Our platform offers a user-friendly interface that allows users to explore a wide range of cryptocurrencies, tokens, and exchanges, empowering them to stay informed and make educated decisions.

How we built it
We have utilised the power of Rapid API and use the data provided with it to implement the price, graph chart, news, stats etc. For FrontEnd and to design items/components we have used React and ANT design. We have also used Netlify to host our site.
Challenges we ran into
While working on the project, the biggest challenge was to be able to implement the graph chart for cryptocurrency prices. Initially, we did run into a problem with API data, but soon we were able to implement the chart functionality, allowing users to check prices over a certain period of time.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of creating a fully functional app and implementing the basic feature within the allotted period of the hackathon. We are also happy to implement the graph chart and analysis for every cryptocurrency.
What we learned
Through this project, we have learned more about the crypto market and its insights. Making correct use of data from APIs and ensuring a smooth user-friendly experience are a couple of other learnings.
What's next for CryptBlaze
There are a couple of things that we would like to improve in the future. We want to integrate a chatbot into our website, which would help the cause of user awareness. It would also help in solving doubts or answering queries about the platform or crypto market.
