For the dataset, I used CoinDesk's API to retrive the lattest Bitcoin price. Their API returns the information in JSON as follows: http://api.coindesk.com/v1/bpi/currentprice.json

{
   "time":{
      "updated":"Mar 9, 2017 21:38:00 UTC",
      "updatedISO":"2017-03-09T21:38:00+00:00",
      "updateduk":"Mar 9, 2017 at 21:38 GMT"
   },
   "disclaimer":"This data was produced from the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index (USD). Non-USD currency data converted using hourly conversion rate from openexchangerates.org",
   "bpi":{
      "USD":{
         "code":"USD",
         "symbol":"&#36;",
         "rate":"1,201.2150",
         "description":"United States Dollar",
         "rate_float":1201.215
      },
      "GBP":{
         "code":"GBP",
         "symbol":"&pound;",
         "rate":"987.0047",
         "description":"British Pound Sterling",
         "rate_float":987.0047
      },
      "EUR":{
         "code":"EUR",
         "symbol":"&euro;",
         "rate":"1,135.1302",
         "description":"Euro",
         "rate_float":1135.1302
      }
   }
}

Using Node.js, I pull the above data every 60 seconds and insert the data to AWS's ElasticSearch (see a4.js).

Data plotted as "Bitcoin Price (in USD) v.s Time" (on left). On right is all three currencies USD, GBP, and EUR.

Data accumulated over ~15 minutes is consistent with live Bitcoin price through another platform.
