Yahoo finance also has a very handy API that outputs stock data (OHLC) in csv format.
Of course csv is just plain text, so you can format the output with your favourite command line tools such as cut, tail, sed, etc... awk in particular works really well for csv files.
Not only it has data on crypto but also pretty much any stock and other assets. Only offers day level data but it does provide you with the current price. Nice if you want to plot historical prices.

nice, thanks ! ... had that on my todo list for a while
here is a line that works in my conky config and displays XMR in -uros :D
[[
$-color3- XMR $-color1- $-execpi 300 curl eur.rate.sx/xmr -grep end -awk '-print ($8)-' -
]]
(I hope i got execpi right and ping the server every 6 minutes only if not please correct me !)

Beware of the wealth transfers coming between the asset classes. They typically follow large trends across large time periods. Right now property is what everybody is buying, and I heard from someone that it'll soon switch back to precious metals PLUS cryto currencies.

Regarding cryptocurrency prices on the cli I work with ledger (the program if John Wiegley) and a small bash-script updating my prices_db. With that I not only get the prices I am interested but also my current portfolio value. All in all I can highly recommend ledger.

Do you know of any CLI crypto trackers that have, Live Price Updating/Charting ? Or maybe a CLI crypto/Stocks combo tracker app?

Yeah I'll continue to use my American Dollars since I still can't buy a bottle of milk at my grocery store with crypto yet
