What is Coin Peek?

Coin Peek is a free Windows and Mac desktop widget for checking your coins without switching windows. It works the same way as its stock sibling, Stock Peek.

In one sentence

A free, open-source Windows and Mac widget that shows Binance, Upbit and bitbank coin prices, a 90-day trend and profit and loss when you move the mouse to the left or right screen edge.

Features

Install and use

  1. Download: Download the latest installer from this site or GitHub Releases: .exe for Windows, .dmg for Mac.
  2. Add coins: Press +, choose Binance, Upbit or bitbank, and search by name or ticker. Optionally enter your amount and average price.
  3. Check at the edge: Move the mouse to the screen edge to open the panel. Move away and it hides.

The app is not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may warn you. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”. On Mac it is not notarized; if the first launch is blocked, click “Open Anyway” in System Settings → Privacy & Security.

Price sources and refresh

Prices come directly from the public market data APIs of Binance, Upbit and bitbank. No API key or exchange account is used. Crypto trades around the clock, so prices refresh every 3 seconds, with one request per exchange for all your coins.

The change figure differs by exchange: Binance and bitbank measure against 24 hours ago, Upbit against the previous close (00:00 KST). All charts show the last 90 days of daily closes.

Privacy and local storage

It never logs in to an exchange or places orders. Your watchlist, amounts, average prices, language and panel position are stored on your computer. Details are on the privacy page.
