Eagle-eyed crypto observers noted over the weekend that Google Search has stopped displaying price charts for Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies in its search results.

Searching for BTC’s price no longer shows a chart in the search results. In contrast, XRP, Dogecoin, and Stellar price searches still yield charts.

Google typically provides charts showing current rates of prominent assets in the finance world, allowing users to check prices without navigating to a different platform. The search engine determines this through growing interest from a surge in searches. This feature enabled users to see real-time price charts for BTC in search results.

Among the well-known crypto community members to pinpoint the removal was Layah Heilpern. Heilperm affirmed that Google still shows pricing data for stocks, suggesting that the company was “purposely trying to suppress crypto”. “They only silence things they are afraid of. Bullish,” she added.

The decision by Google to boot Bitcoin has sparked discussions about the reasons behind the shift.

Because Trump endorsed bitcoin.

Google has also pulled down pricing data for the industry’s second-largest crypto by market capitalization, Ethereum (ETH). Additionally, chart data for Solana’s SOL is also unavailable.

Interestingly, searching for “DOGE”, “XRP”, and XLM still shows their price charts. 

Some watchers speculated that this shows XRP’s superiority when compared to the other major cryptocurrencies. “This is huge, google knows something,” one user said. However, it’s unlikely the case.

In other related news, Google Trends data indicates that the search volume for the term “Bitcoin” on Google slumped to a one-year low in the week of Oct. 13-19, 2024 as traders became less curious about movements within the crypto’s ecosystem. And by the end of the week, worldwide user interest in the search term had fallen to a score of 28. Google Trends notes that a value of 100 means “peak popularity for the term.”

However, historical data suggests a decline in Google search interest could be bullish for cryptocurrencies as it happens before a mega price pump.
