3. Tweak the settings

• Set a name
• Set Execute this script every x seconds to 60 seconds or something to avoid spaming the network
• Pick the TouchBar button color
• Set a icon by dragging a image over the Icon slot. Here are some nice icons.

4. Rince and repeat for as many coins you want.

Settings

At the top of the script there are some values you can change to set another coin, set the currency and how many numbers after the deliminator (in case the coin is worth less than a dollar).

How to find coin name
You can find the coinName from the url from coinmarketcap https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/{coinName}/

Great script, I do do often get many more numbers than 2 after the deliminator with my EOS currency (but not all the time) :) Cant spot the error though
