cryptick 1.1
A crypto price ticker for the Waveshare 1.47" ESP32-C6 boards: live prices and charts from OKX, configured via device-served web pages. Firmware supports both touch and non-touch board versions.
Install
Easiest: in your browser. Plug the board into a computer with a USB-C data cable and open the cryptick web installer in Chrome or Edge. Click Install cryptick, pick the board's port, and wait about a minute.
Or by hand, with esptool and the cryptick-1.1.bin below:
pip install esptool
esptool.py --chip esp32c6 write_flash 0x0 cryptick-1.1.binIf the board's port doesn't show up, try another cable (many carry power only), or hold BOOT while plugging it in.
Then
The ticker shows a QR code for its own Wi-Fi hotspot, CRYPTICK-XXXX. Join it with your phone, tap Sign in to network (or turn mobile data off and open http://4.3.2.1 after connecting), and add your Wi-Fi. The ticker joins your network and shows its address and panel password; afterwards the panel is at http://cryptick.local.
Updating
A ticker already running cryptick updates from its own panel: Device → Firmware update, with the same cryptick-1.1.bin. That keeps all settings. (Installing over USB starts fresh.)
Highlights
- Up to 15 coins, checked with the exchange as you add them; drag to reorder
- 1D / 7D / 30D charts: closing prices, a smooth line through each swing's highs and lows, or closes over a low-high band
- Crossfade or dip transitions, 0-15 s per coin (0 scrolls continuously), brightness and night dimming
- Touch board: swipe between coins, hold a finger to pause, picture follows the board's orientation
- Several Wi-Fi networks in order of preference; setup hotspot with QR code; firmware updates with automatic rollback; settings backup and restore
- Over-the-air firmware updates
- Device acts as a wifi hotspot to aid initial setup
