Do you mean something like this: http://coinmarketcap.com/?

(I don't own it or something, so don't report me for spam. I don't know whether this is allowed).

I am watching.  CoinChoose really keys off of difficulty and ability to generate the coins - what do you suggest as the potential meter to compare real currencies? Smiley

I like the idea of Coinchoose, the idea is excellent, being able to compare different coins for profitablity.

However, I think we should have one for real currencies!  Line up Euros, CAD, USD, Yen... All the major currencies, and see how they are relative to each other, same way we can see how cryptocurrencies are relative to each other.

The main use I can think this would be good for is exchanging currencies.  I know one of the great thing about bitcoins is the ease of transfering money across borders, buy turning CAD to BTC to Euro (for example).  So, if we had a comparison chart (like coinchoose!) we could see what the best exchanges would be!

I'm no programmer, so I'd have no idea how to implement this, but if the guy who runs coinchoose sees this... I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to copy the code and have it watch real currencies instead of cryptos Tongue
I like your thinking  Grin
