add current exchange rate to wallet about bitcoin-private-full-node-wallet HOT 1 OPEN

For sure, that could be a nice feature! Maybe just make a background call to API on startup or on enable/change currency and display converted value in parenthesis behind balances with $CURRENCY like

0.00 BTCP (0.00 $CURRENCY)

Here's the CMC API link to fetch BTCP/USD:

https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v2/ticker/2575/ where the response is in

[data][quotes][USD][price]

To fetch other currency it's

https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v2/ticker/2575/?convert=$CURRENCY and response is in

[data][quotes][$CURRENCY][price]

Not sure if should be enabled by default, to prevent info leak to 3rd party (API call). Maybe a little submenu

Currency Conversion
