The **Token Price Ticker** is an embeddable, live price display for the SoapBox ecosystem tokens, part of the SoapBox Data Hub and published at data.soapbox.community/tools/ticker.

It is designed for people who want to show current KULA and other ecosystem token prices somewhere the SoapBox Data Hub cannot be embedded directly — a forum signature, a discussion post, or a blog.

## What it shows

The ticker lists the ecosystem tokens — MELEK, PRANA, WPRANA, KULA, wVKBT, wCURE and APIS — with each token's current price expressed in PRANA, the PRANA chain's native token.

Prices come from the live KulaSwap automated-market-maker pool reserves read directly from the PRANA chain. KULA is priced from the KULA/WPRANA pool; wVKBT and wCURE are priced through their KULA pools. Tokens that have no market yet — MELEK (whose blockchain witness price feed is not live) and APIS — are shown honestly as **n/a** rather than with an invented number.

## How to use it

Three formats are offered on the embed page:
- **Forum (BBCode)** — a single [img] tag that renders a price image. It works on boards that allow images but not JavaScript, including Bitcointalk. The image is served as PNG through a public image proxy so it displays on the strictest forums.
- **Blog (HTML)** — an image tag or a small auto-refreshing widget for sites that allow HTML or JavaScript.
- **JSON** — a plain data endpoint for anyone who wants to read the prices programmatically.

Each format is copy-paste ready on the embed page; no account, key or signup is required.

## Design notes

The ticker never asks for or handles any private key, and reads only public chain data. If a pool or the chain is briefly unreachable, the affected token shows n/a and the rest of the ticker still renders — it never fails to a blank or an error.
