Simple to use library that takes care of all your bitcoin conversions. Convert to and from bitcoin, satoshis and fiat.
yarn add bitcoin-conversion
npm install bitcoin-conversion
Note that all functions converting to or from fiat return a Promise
. This is because it calls the CoinDesk API for current rates.
bitcoinToFiat(amountInBtc: number | string, convertTo: SupportedCurrencies): Promise<number>;
import { bitcoinToFiat } from 'bitcoin-conversion';
const paymentInUsd = await bitcoinToFiat('0.00005', 'USD'); // needs await since calling CoinDesk API
