DIY Cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) Ticker / Realtime Subscriber Counter

In this project, we use a Raspberry Pi Zero W, some 3D printed parts, and a couple of max7219 display units to create a realtime subscriber counter in honor of our 100k milestone. With the recent rise and fall of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies, we thought it was fitting to also make this display function as a cryptocurrency ticker. We chose a Raspberry Pi Zero W for this project because it has built-in wifi and a small form factor.
