Topic: [Ann] The Price in Sats (Read 948 times)
I've finally added blogs to the site and you can read the first one here: https://thepriceinsats.com/blog/Why-does-price-in-sats-exist
Hopefully, in the coming months/year I can dig deeper into this part of the bitcoin ecosystem.
My next blog will just be a list of useful links to e.g. the whitepaper.
Let me know if you would like me to discuss any topics.

We've added HISTORICAL PRICES!
Going forward it should track the price of items against the price of bitcoin, showing a downward trend in terms of goods. As its been launched today. Its just using todays price against some historical data I pulled.
See more here: https://thepriceinsats.com/historical-prices
I need to do a freedom of information request from tesco to give me the previous prices of the 10 items over the last year. Hopefully they will play ball.
The mole is moving forward.
Thanks for your support.

I would recommend a different web crawling method, if you're getting flagged for scraping then you might have to change up how it works, are you using a headless browser with a user-agent or are you just reading html? Without disclosing exactly how it works would you be able to identify why it got you flagged?
Thanks for the input, one of the issues was how often we scraped, initially, it was set at 30minute intervals to ensure the price was recent, then I changed it to once a day. Still, I think it was too often and therefore they band us (probably just an automatic WAF rule) through resource utilisation - after all, we try and collect data on over 7k items. So we had to change the schedule to weekly and we are going to add a couple of rules, which should have been in place. Check first then update.
We're still here guys & girls.
If any of you have visited the site recently, you might have noticed the lack of items....... Well Tesco blocked our IP address so we couldn't scrape the data anymore.
Anyway, I have written to their innovations team and hopefully, we'll get whitelisted. In the interim, we'll have to perform some magic and rely on older data.
Also, we are working on a historical pricing graph so watch out for that

Maybe you used to short time interval for fetching data from their website... that could often result in IP getting banned.You could use multiple addresses for collecting information from Tesco and use longer time intervals to avoid their DDOS detection, if they don't allow whitelisting.

Hey!
I scanned your website for vulnerabilities and it checked out great! There is only one problem, your Strict-Transport-Security header is either non-existent or not working, if this is intentional, great! If its not, here is some documentation to help (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Strict-Transport-Security)

Boom! Thanks for the tip and documentation.

Oddly enough I thought today that it's a good way of tracking deflation because I have the historical prices of items like Lucky charms on March 3rd cost 4,073 $SATs now they only cost 3,237 and Illy Coffee Beans, on March 27th they cost 16,783 $SATs and now they are 14,027 SATs.
Printers go Brrrrrrr

This graph shows how many sats you can buy with one USD over time

I like your idea a lot. You have created a great website. Although there are some minor flaws in the website you can fix them later. I hope you make the website a little more interesting.
Thanks for the thumbs up, there are always improvements I want to do and areas I want to focus on. Feel free to list some things you would like to see improved. Community feedback is always welcomed and hopefully, you'll support the site and idea.

I've added the localisation feature which means that if you access from 10 jurisdictions, you will see your currency. It works ok, could be better and I needed to refresh a couple of times to clear out the cookies.
I am also going to add the Bitcoin BTC Whitepaper on my thank you's list at the bottom because well, everyone should at least read it once.

Not sure if you would eventually do this, but a proper localisation would include a different set of items for different countries.
If you have never seen the brand or item, then you don't get any benefit of seeing the price in sats.

I have been looking at stores across the oceans, that we could scrape similar to the operation with Tesco.
But I hadn't thought about localisation and showing particular items based on location, thanks for the Input
I've added a few more currencies, hopefully, once the IP localisation is done people who visit the site will see their currency.
Added: AUD, CAD, CHF, HKD & NZD (That gives 10 currencies in total)

A small update but I think an important one, you can now enter a number of SATs and get back the FIAT figure in 5 currencies. (Planning to be 10 soon)
With the increase in speed and hopefully this little change, usability is increasing.
