blink1-bitcoin
A tiny tool to connect your blink(1) device with Bitcoin live trades using websockets.
blink1-bitcoin connects you to the live trading API of your favorite Bitcoin exchange (currently Bitstamp and OKCoin only, see Todo) and uses your blink(1) device to flash on every occuring trade with a corresponding light. The first incoming trade sets the reference values.
