@op8 sorry for the late reply, thank you very much, i still love it to watch the price on it. The M5 core is the regular black framed M5-core and the bottom is the M5GO/FIRE Battery Bottom Charging Base SKU:A014 from this M5-Stack-Shop (do not forget to buy the chargning base plate as i did, these are 2 seperate items to buy) It has the rgb-led strip built-in but it is only barely used in my code.. My Intention was to show major price movements with red/green flashing lights (and sounds) for example. Unfortunately i did not implement additional functions since then.

Hi everyboy

Yess! I made good progress with my project, a Crypto Coin Price Ticker for monitoring crypto currencies on your desktop in a nice good looking and small device.

I have modified and enhanced some existing code i found to use with our great M5Stack Device (The CORE1 Version - with 3 buttons !) .
The original core of the code was from a github users project github.com/olbed/bitcoin-ticker
I ported it to M5, added many new features and now I want to share my resutls to all of you who wants a nice price ticker on your desktop to track your favorite crypto coins easily.

Get rid of your daily routine to turn on the PC or mobile phone for nothing important and only distracting stuff... Just see your loved Crypto and "forget" ! :)
edit: btw - look at this rise in btc from march 2020 to now on the picutures

Hi, really nice to explore your project! You have really gone thought all the steps which i skipped so far on my ticker. (mobile app to config, fw updates, multiple sources, webstore) NICE and very professional.

Updated Version (minor changings):

• added cycling function: enable/disable by pressing ButtonA+ButtonC together. steps through your currencies after a certain time (default: 15sec for each currency)

• added Timezone for Singapore (UTC+8)

• code merged to one version, so there is no need to have different versions anymore

• autodetect the optional room sensor and show 12pixel high sensor panel in this case temperature unit C or F and offset is set from SD-Config and not hardcoded anymore (because the M5-Stack is heating up itself it will never be accurate and has only limited expressiveness)

@reddai
hard to predict but i experienced odd behavior with reading settings when i for example forgot to eject the sd-card on pc by control center (use checkdisk on the sd card too if you forgot).
Or maybe you have some hidden symbols from a copy paste action in your settings file or router config page. I'm not so good with ascii code but like when you see a url link with %20 for space or something. Maybe you used a complex texteditor? use simple text editor, no format options, and of course check every single sign... frustrating to not know. First i would try a fresh config file and only wifi settings. Before check your SD card. When this still fails try without space in name, if it works we have to accept that fact or better investigate that "space in name" problem of the used esp32 library
