What is an Assistant App?

What is Ethereum?
Ethereum is a digital currency invented in 2013 — a full 4 years after the release of Bitcoin. It has since grown to be the second largest digital currency in the world by market cap — around $20 billion, compared to Bitcoin’s $40 billion. Btw, here is a short intro video I made on Bitcoin.
Ethereum uses its blockchain to record state transitions in a gigantic distributed computer. Ethereum’s corresponding digital currency, ether, is essentially a side effect of powering this massive computer. To put it another way, Ethereum is literally a computer that spans the entire world. Anyone who runs the Ethereum software on their computer is participating in the operations of this world-computer, the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Because the EVM was designed to be Turing-complete, it can do almost anything that can be expressed in a computer program.

This “Ether Info” app can be reach by saying: “OK Google, talk with Ether Info”.
You can get the current Ethereum price, market cap and the last 24h trading volume.
This is how it will look like:
The code is in this GitHub Repo, so please feel free to fork and improve it.
Btw, if you wish to learn more on Ethereum, this post could be a good start.
