New MINI and MICRO Firmware, and BitcoinTreasuries.net

All the tasty data from BitcoinTreasuries.net is now available for display on your Blockclock! At the same time, we’ve updated the firmware to version 1.2.3. You don’t have to upgrade the firmware to see the new BitcoinTreasuries.net data sources, but they look slightly nicer and we fixed a few bugs plus added some fun in the new firmware version.

What is BitcoinTreasuries.net?

BitcoinTreasuries.net is a data site that lists all publicly-known Bitcoin treasuries, both in public and private companies. Bitcoin ETF’s, funds and even government holdings are being tracked as well.

For most entities on the site, we are providing these values:

  • held – Number of Bitcoins held by this company/fund/government.
  • btc_per_share – Number of BTC held divided by number of shares.
  • ngu – Percent gain (loss) based on cost basis vs. current value of BTC holdings.
  • hold_mc_share – BTC holding as % of market cap.
  • cost_basis – USD cost of all BTC held.
  • current_value – Current USD value of BTC being held.
  • market_cap – Market cap in USD.
  • share_price – Fiat value of a single share. Converted to USD, but also available, for example, as share_price.CAD for companies that report in their local fiat.

To find you favourite company, you can now search by stock ticker symbol on the Blockclock. For example, your might want to search for: MSTR or 0434.HK

Other Backend Changes

  • MINI only: Added some “mime fun” on display page. Mr. Yellow makes an appearance.
