In A Bing, Bitcoins Converted

Bing users now can access Bitcoin’s current conversion rate via the search bar.

Microsoft announced the move this week. Coinbase, a popular online wallet service, provides Bing with up-to-date pricing data.

The service is available to users in North America, some European countries and India. Microsoft expects to add functionality for more countries in the future, The Next Web reported on Feb. 11.

This development is good news for Bitcoin, which has seen a rocky start to the week after an alleged design flaw caused prices to plunge worldwide. Learn more about this ongoing story by clicking here.
