Google is moving into crypto, just in a different direction than other big tech firms.

The project is a subset of Google Cloud and is harnessing big data and application program interfaces (API) to search blockchains like Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ethereum ($ETH).

BigQuery is growing and hoping to add altcoins like Litecoin ($LTC), Bitcoin Cash ($BCH), Dash ($DASH) and more.
