Bitcoin price index + Nokia 5110

Saw this Hackaday article.

Thought it could be done better using MicroPython, urequests, ujson, upip and Markus Birth's PCD8544 (Nokia 5110) library.

So, here you go: https://github.com/mcauser/MicroPython- ... 10-Bitcoin

Fetches bitcoin price index using CoinDesk API as Australian dollars (AUD), refreshes every 84 seconds, coincidentally, the width in pixels of the display, for a progress bar that updates once per second :D
