Welcome to crypto-ticker, a Visual Studio Code extension that allows you to keep an eye on cryptocurrency prices as you code!
The default settings provide a set of basic tickers for BTC, ETH and LTC. The current prices are displayed in USD with colors based on the 24HOUR period.
This extension uses cryptocompare.com to retrieve the current cryptocurrency prices. Please consult their documentation for a list of supported symbols, currencies and exchanges.
You can fully customize your tickers using the crypto-ticker extension settings.
