This is a simple Go application that calls CoinMarketCap's API to get stats on any cryptocurrency you choose. It then uses your Twilio account to send you an SMS with that information.

Please place your Twilio credentials in the credentials.conf file.

This program can be used with the -coin and -info flags.

If you do not specify flags, the defaults will be used. The default coin returned is bitcoin while the default info level is price.

Example:

./main -coin=litecoin -info=all returns the following data:
