Using Go language? Get a star from me.

Go is great for asynchronous network jobs. This app hardly makes the best use of those facilities :-)

Tempted to add the MtGox and Bitstamp websocket order book and trade feeds next, but any feature suggestions much appreciated!

Some of you might be familiar with top, htop, atop, iotop etc. in terminal world for keeping track of what your machine is doing. Was a bit bored and thought it would be cool to do something similar for bitcoin exchanges using the bitcoincharts.com API

http://bitcoincharts.com/about/markets-api/

So here it is, the first version of a sortable, filterable view of all the exchanges listed on Bitcoincharts, in a terminal window. New trades stream in, but there is a bug when a full update occurs, it might knock out the previously streamed trades. Version 0.1 :-).



Download binaries here:

https://github.com/donovanhide/btctop/releases/

or build it yourself:

All bugs, feature suggestions, data sources and ideas gratefully received!
