Bitstamp BTC Price: Track Bitcoin Prices

The 'Bitstamp BTC price' chrome extension provides real-time updates on Bitcoin prices from Bitstamp. It fetches price rates every 60 seconds or when clicked on the icon. It also uses different badge colors to signify if the price went up, down or remained the same. Additional features include user-configurable notifications for price thresholds. Bear in mind, this is not an official Bitstamp plugin, and may face occasional downtimes or bugs.

Extension summary

Just shows the Bitstamp BTC (Bitcoin) price/rate. It's fetched every 60 seconds or when the user clicks on the icon.

About badge background colours:

  • black - price did not change from last fetch.
  • green - price went up
  • red - price went down

So... green is good, red is bad ;)

Depending on the rate it might not fit very well. Just right click the icon, select "Options" and from there select your desired price precision.

Also added possibility to configure notifications so user gets notified when price rises over or falls below configured threshold. Once the limit is met, user is notified and the limit is set to that value - and this is repeated every time new limit is crossed. Go disable the notifications or set a new limit if you get annoyed.

You'll need to update the add-on. Since BTC went above 100K the numbers won't fit in the icon badge anymore! (That's a good thing BTW ;-p)

Works well but I would like to chance font and bg color. Because bg colors are very dark and hard to read the numbers.
