Satova
Bitcoin Price in Your Menu Bar
Satova puts the live Bitcoin price right in your Mac menu bar. One glance, no browser tab, no app to open. Click the price for the day's move and the 24-hour high, low, and volume. Satova is deliberately simple: it shows Bitcoin in US dollars and nothing else, refreshing every few seconds from Kraken's public market data. There is no account, no sign-up, no subscription, and no data collection of any kind. Prices are for information only and are not financial advice.
Features
Live Price at a Glance
The current Bitcoin price sits in your menu bar and refreshes every few seconds, so you always know where BTC is without opening anything.
The Day's Move, Inline
Right beside the price you see the day's percentage change in green or red, so a quick look tells you which way the market is going.
24-Hour Detail on Click
Open the popover for the 24-hour high, low, and trading volume, plus how long ago the price last updated.
Just Bitcoin, Just Dollars
No coin pickers, no currency menus, no settings. Satova does one thing and does it cleanly. More coins and currencies may come in future updates.
Private by Design
No account, no analytics, no tracking, and no data collection. Satova only ever requests the Bitcoin price, and it stores nothing about you.
Light and Native
A tiny, native macOS menu bar app that sips CPU and battery. It shows a number and stays out of your way.

That Is It
No accounts, no configuration, no clutter. Satova keeps the price in front of you and stays out of the way.
