CryptoCoinsInfoBot v2

@CryptoCoinsInfoBot - enjoy it!

This is a simple version of a Telegram Bot, had been used python-telegram-bot library, you can use start_polling or webhook updates methods for recieve the messages (see cryptocoinsinfobot.py code)

For use unicode emojis had been used Emoji Library

APIs of CoinMarketCap professional API and CryptoCompare.com are used

UPD 23/01/2019: It was implemented CoinMarketCap professional API, which provide quite restricted paid plans, so the bot makes only 1 request/update CMC data per hour (to can be worked inside free BASIC plan), if you bought paid plan you should change config variable config.TIME_INTERVAL to get updated your data more often
