Tipped.

I like it, though it feels like there's a few too many decimals. Perhaps truncate it to 3 DPS?


Also, maybe change "Last:" to be the default.

Perhaps the option of not showing "Last/High/Low/etc" next to the price, and simply have the bitcoin logo? (Since we know what price to show as we select it)

Very nice!!! Something I'd find very useful indeed.

I'd happily donate a few $$$ but have a few small requests. One is a smaller font size, I want it as unobtrusive as my menumeters. Also I'm only interested in seeing 2 decimal places. The rest is a waste of space on my already packed menu bar.

Maybe if the font sized is fixed, then some way of customising the display so i can just have the number?

Hey everyone,

I've created a nice simple price ticker for Bitcoin that sits in the OSX menu bar.

It gets its data from Mt.Gox and allows for its automatic update interval to be set.
If you want to manually update its data, just click it. The data will be refreshed whenever the menu is opened.
You can also select which piece of data you want to be displayed in your menu bar.

Also, as a student I'd greatly appreciate tips if you find BTCPrice useful Smiley : 1Price4EGW8R59auccATvEwCFAhXYBML6V
