This tiny IoT ticker-meter turns your tabletop into a miniature stock, forex, and crypto market!

Posted on by




Think of the TickrMeter as a real-life widget for your real-life desktop. Equipped with an e-ink screen that doesn’t demand too much energy while still providing easy-to-read high-contrast text, the TickrMeter displays any ticker-count by connecting to the internet. If you’re a stock-market watchdog, the ticker displays any stock value you assign to it. If you’re someone who works with international currencies, you can track daily fluctuations in international currency values against your own currency… and if you’re a crypto-enthusiast, the TickrMeter can be your own personal cryptocoin value-tracker, giving you updates in realtime!

The nifty little gadget sits ambiently on your desk, giving you a real-time reflection of financial data of your choice. Configurable through the TickrMeter app, you can track stocks, currencies, or even crypto-values with an impressively low 20ms latency, giving you the latest updates AS they happen. The app allows you to configure the data in a way that benefits you the most. You can either use a single TickrMeter to display a single value, or have the same display alternate between all your portfolios, sort of like a slideshow. The data displayed on the e-ink screen is accompanied by the date and time mentioned at the top, the percentage increase/decrease at the bottom, and even your profit/loss if you input the investment amount into the app. You can even choose your own time-frame, tracking growth by the day, week, month, or year, and a small backlit color-bar on the side turns either green or red, depending on a bull or bear moment.

The mini-device is a neat addition to any tabletop, bringing the thrill of a stock market to your desktop. Its relatively rectangular design can be magnetically stacked too, allowing you to build out an entire stock market on your desk, turning you into a Wolf of WFH Street. For added effect, the app lets you even program events/alerts (causing the backlit color-strip to turn blue) when a stock hits a certain price, and the TickrMeter comes with a toggleable bell sound that chimes like the bell on Wall Street!

While the device does run on a relatively low-energy e-ink screen, the TickrMeter needs to be constantly plugged in to work (the developers are working on a battery variant that unlocks as a funding goal). For now though, each TickrMeter comes with a USB cable and if you buy multiple units, you can daisy-chain them to connect all of them to a single power source. The tickers run directly off data from the internet too, so they connect directly to your WiFi for the fastest results, instead of sending and receiving data through your phone (which can cause a significant lag). The TickrMeter receives real-time professional-grade financial data directly from the best resources, including the NASDAQ, London Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange, and Toronto Stock Exchange. For now these nifty little widgets track Stocks, Forex, and Crypto, although future updates could allow them to gather and display any sort of information – like potentially YouTube views, Spotify plays, or Instagram/TikTok followers!

The CORAZON is a high-end titanium crypto wallet that securely stores all your Dogecoin

Posted on by




Partnering with Trezor over the technology, luxury brand GRAY has recently unveiled the CORAZON, a hardware crypto wallet made from robust materials while boasting of an incredibly secure internal software that lets you store your cryptocoins offline in a practically impervious digital vault.

Named after the Spanish word for the heart, CORAZON comes almost in an abstract heart-shaped design machined from aerospace-grade 6Al4V titanium. The strategic partnership between GRAY and Trezor has allowed the product to rely on the expertise and experience of both companies. The wallet’s secure software is based on the Trezor Core Firmware of the Trezor Model T, while its components sit perfectly within a tamper-resistant outer-casing manufactured by GRAY.

The CORAZON puts the digital equivalent of Fort Knox in the palm of your hand. The CORAZON is your wallet, your security keychain, and your digital safe, with support for over a 1000 cryptocurrencies. Moreover, it also serves as a password manager for your digital accounts, and a U2F hardware token to aid in authentication requests, fulfilling the role of a hardware wallet as well as a hardware key for your digital accounts. A USB-C port on the wallet’s base allows you to connect it to a computer to have it serve as a hardware authenticator. The same USB-C port even lets you charge your CORAZON.

While being secure, Trezor’s technology is open-source and gets frequently audited by security researchers. According to CORAZON’s website, “Anybody can verify its integrity, look for vulnerabilities and suggest improvements.”

The hardware comes hermetically sealed within two robust CNC-machined titanium halves. The two halves of the wallet are first closed with a screw, before a resin is used to seal the joint. The resin is hardened with UV light, creating a device that can no longer be opened without compromising its physical integrity. The high-end materials and secure backend mean CORAZON comes with a pretty heavy price tag. The Titanium variant retails for $999, while a slightly cheaper Aluminum version of the same device costs $599. The CORAZON definitely isn’t for everyone. Although if you’re Elon Musk or one of those recent Dogecoin millionaires, you could easily grab yourself one of these without breaking a sweat.
