[Feature Request]: Enable Search by Cryptocurrency Name

[rahmathkhasim]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Feature Description

Currently, the Crypto Price Predictor only recognizes cryptocurrency symbols (e.g., BTC, ETH) for fetching predictions. However, when a user inputs the full name of the cryptocurrency (e.g., "bitcoin" instead of "BTC"), the search doesn't return results.

Use Case

if the user tries to search with the name also he can see the predicted price

Benefits

"The user does not need to know currency abbreviations."

Priority
