I just released a new version, which makes it possible to check current recommended Bitcoin fees right from the command line:

Code:
$ sibit fees
S: 15000sat / $1.28
M: 45000sat / $3.83
L: 50000sat / $4.26
XL: 50000sat / $4.26

I published a blog post, explaining how this small command line tool works: https://www.yegor256.com/2019/05/07/sibit-bitcoin-command-line-client.html

I just released a new version that supports --dry option. Now you don't need to worry about the correctness of your transaction before sending. Just run it with "--dry --verbose" options and see exactly what will be sent to the network.

Interesting. I was thinking of creating something similar in nodeJs as part of the hobby project. Is the build-failing though? I'm trying to install it on my Linux VPS but the download times out. Not sure if the issue is with my VPS or the remote repository. Either way, I'll create an issue if I'm unable to figure it out.

Works for me on Ubuntu and MacOS, but I can't figure out what's wrong on Windows. Will check it out later.

Please, submit an issue if you see problems.

I just released version 0.8.0, which supports --proxy option.

Now you can check your balance and send Bitcoin transactions through an HTTPS proxy.

To update, just say:

gem update sibit

Hey, I just released my simplified Bitcoin command line client: https://github.com/yegor256/sibit

It's super simple, you can create an address, check the balance, receive bitcoins and send bitcoins (works through Blockchain.info HTTP API).

Also, you can use it from inside your Ruby app.
