Delayed market quotes · one paid slot · every terminal
tmux-ticker
Market quotes are delayed (typically 15+ minutes), shown for informational purposes only, and are not investment advice. Quotes require a self-hosted deployment with your own market-data API key — no public feed is provided.
Delayed stock quotes in your terminal. Every quote labeled with its delay — and every fourth turn of the ticker is one message slot, priced by a decaying auction.
Install
One line wires the agent into your shell. Delayed quotes roll while markets are open, in every terminal you work in.

The quotes roll for free. The slot between them is a Dutch auction.
01 Buy credits
Top up once. Credits are the only thing you spend to claim and hold the slot.
02 Compose a styled bid
Write your message, pick the styling — bold, italic, color, rainbow — and beat the live price.
03 Ride the rotation
Your message takes every fourth turn of the ticker, on every terminal, until the decaying price is beaten and the slot hands off.
