  To implement WebSocket functionality in a Golang program for monitoring real-time cryptocurrency prices, you can use the Gorilla WebSocket library. This library provides a simple and efficient way to handle WebSocket connections in your Golang application. You can find the library on GitHub and follow the documentation to get started. With Gorilla WebSocket, you can easily establish a WebSocket connection to a cryptocurrency exchange's WebSocket API and receive real-time price updates. Happy coding!

  If you're looking for a more beginner-friendly approach, you can also consider using the Go standard library's net/http package to handle WebSocket connections. Although it requires more manual configuration compared to using a dedicated library like Gorilla WebSocket, it can still get the job done. You can find examples and tutorials online on how to implement WebSocket functionality using the net/http package in Golang. Good luck with your project!
