Title: [FREE TOOL]Cointikka: Tools for Bitcoin Holders & Bitcointalk Users
Post by: Cointikka on May 26, 2026, 03:31:45 PM
I now feel this project is complete. I have added a lot of free tools to the existing rank-up tracker for now, which will not be free in a few months. After I checked the amount of traffic I am gaining, I am planning to put this tool under a domain name. That I will do after I create an ANN page on the relevant board.

I am using the AI to tell you the USPs of my free tool. So please ignore if you are from the AI detection in-house enthusiastic users team (who use AI to detect AI content ;D ;D )

What was my original Plan?
It was simple: create a rankup tracker using vibe coding to help users who hold Jr.Member rank to Senior Member. I used the feedback given to me on this thread and created a tool that is not only for Bitcointalk users but also for Bitcoin holders and for those who plan to be part of the Bitcoin journey. Isn't that an amazing idea for a startup?

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2026/07/13/UcyK9H.jpg

I created a few tools dedicated to those who hold Bitcoin and who are paying for these features, which are free for now. I am listing those tools below.


📈 Rank & Merit Tracker
This is the heart of Cointikka. Drop in your UID and it pulls your live Activity, Merit, sMerit, and Total Posts straight off the forum — no more manually checking your profile page every hour like a paranoid Newbie. You get a visual rank ladder showing exactly where you stand between Newbie and Legendary, a Today's Checklist for quick daily wins, and a full Rank Requirements table so you always know exactly what's standing between you and your next promotion. If you've ever lost track of your Activity math, this alone will save you.

🧠 Merit Lab (inside the Tracker)
Ever stare at the "New Topic" button with zero idea what to post? Merit Lab fixes that. It gives you live regional news + CoinGecko "Market Movers" for local board discussions, plus rank-matched topic suggestions for merit-active global boards like Bitcoin Discussion or Economics — each one tagged 🟢/🟡/🔴 so you know if it's underserved or already beaten to death. There's also a built-in Merit Guide that finally explains merit → sMerit math in plain English.

📊 Merit Analytics, Rank Predictor & Goals/Streaks (inside the Tracker)
This is the part that keeps me coming back honestly. Analyze shows your raw stats and trends, Insights surfaces milestones you'd have otherwise missed, and Perspective gives you the "why keep grinding" long view based on your actual history — not generic motivational fluff. The Rank Predictor projects a realistic promotion timeline from your real posting velocity and merit pace. And streaks here are sync-verified against real Activity movement across different days, so it can't be gamed by just opening the app and closing it again.

🗳️ Signature Campaign Tracker
(unlocks at Member rank) — Built for anyone running sig campaigns. "Count Your Post" gives you This Week vs Last Week totals with board-by-board and day-by-day breakdowns, while "Check Your Post" gives you a searchable, sortable log of every individual post with a direct link, so you're never scrambling to prove your weekly count to a campaign manager again.

🎯 Merit & Bounty Opportunities (inside the Tracker)
Live-pulled straight from the forum, filterable by Signature / Bounties / Games & Rounds, so you can see what's actually open right now instead of digging through five different ANN threads.

🔍 Profile Analyzer & Forum Veteran Score (inside the Tracker)
Profile Analyzer rolls your activity, merit, and posting patterns into one Profile Health Score with personalized, actionable recommendations plus a rank-comparison table showing exactly what separates you from the next tier. Veteran Score is just for fun but it's a nice touch — a 0-100 score based purely on your synced stats, plus your "Bitcoin Era Generation" and how many halvings you've witnessed since you joined. There's even a shareable Veteran Summary Card if you want to flex it in your sig or a post.



📊 Bitcoin DCA Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Model what a recurring Bitcoin buy — daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly — would've turned into over time, fees included, using real historical prices pulled live from CoinGecko. Great for anyone in here trying to decide whether to lump-sum or stack sats steadily.

🧾 Bitcoin Tax Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Log your buys, sells, income (mining/staking/airdrops/payments), gifts, donations, and internal transfers, pick your jurisdiction and cost-basis method, and get an estimated gain/loss breakdown — all calculated and stored locally on your own device. Not a substitute for a real tax pro, but genuinely useful for keeping your own records straight instead of a messy spreadsheet.

💰 Bitcoin Profit Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Pick any purchase date back to April 2013, compare it to today (or any other date), and see what that stack would be worth now — complete with a price-journey chart and results in 160+ currencies. One-click "copy to clipboard" if you want to share your gains (or pain) in a thread.

🔎 Bitcoin Blockchain Explorer (Free, no UID needed)
A proper all-in-one explorer — look up addresses, transactions, and blocks, run conversions, track earnings, and check live fee rates, all with a top ticker showing current BTC price, latest block, mempool size, and sat/vByte fees at a glance. No need to bounce between five different sites anymore.

🕵️ Bitcoin Wallet Privacy Checker (Free, no UID needed)
Quick, no-nonsense check for whether you're reusing addresses — one of the most common (and avoidable) privacy leaks in Bitcoin. Worth running on any wallet you use regularly.

✂️ Image Cropper (Free, no UID needed)
Built specifically with avatars and signature images in mind. Drag-and-drop or paste, zoom/pan, rotate/flip, preset aspect ratios, a precision magnifier, automatic EXIF orientation fixing (so your sideways phone photos come in straight), and a batch queue if you've got a stack of images to crop in one go. It also hands off directly into BBCode Image Studio when you're ready to post.

🖼️ BBCode Image Studio (unlocks at Full Member rank)
Generates ready-to-paste BBCode for post images, topic/ANN banners, and sponsored image campaigns with custom dimensions per destination — no more hand-typing image tags or guessing at sizes. Handles multiple images at once too, so you can queue up a whole campaign's worth of banners in one sitting.



Everything above runs client-side — your stats, your tax entries, your images, all of it stays in your browser. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere. Give it a spin and let me know what you think, or what you'd want to see added next.

I appreciate you tried to create something for community, but I don't understand what's the point in having this rankup tracker?
We already have BPIP and BitList website providing more than enough information about forum profiles.
I tried using your website, but it's very confusing and I didn't find a way properly find member and change it later.

Thank you for your feedback. I understand that the user interface can be confusing, which is why I mentioned that I am still working on it. The reason I created this is to assess whether individuals who prioritize privacy are still interested in using Chromium-based extensions on an app that can be accessed on any device without compromising their privacy. [EDITED] I do not think the extension that you have mentioned can be easy and clear to understand for anyone new or trying to rank up here in this competitive and security focused enviornment.

Although we have excellent tools, such as those mentioned, I noticed that yours focuses exclusively on a single objective: tracking the ranking and measuring how much is left to reach the next one. It even includes a to-do list for this purpose. I don't think it can be compared to the others. It's interesting, and I didn't find it that complicated. I would include the option to change the colors in the light and dark styles, and in the dark style I would soften the contrast a bit, with less black (for example, the color #3B3B3B or something similar).

I think is about the way that he displays the data, there are a lot of data tools, but if someone finds a way to show that data on a nice pattern or more friendly for all and not only for high math skill guys.

I really liked the project, i know it was made with vibe coding, and it would be great if it becomes open source and you share the code with us to have fun.

Thanks for your feedback. It is still under construction. I will work on your feeback when I upgrade the tool with the next version.

Thanks for your feedback, and I trust that feedback from a known developer encourages me to work hard on my prompts and improve the logic behind the tool. As it is still work in pogress in the future if everything goes well with my planning I will make it an open source project.

Cool project. I'm curious where do you pull the stats for which board is highly watched by merit sources? Do you track this independently or do you use other sources and compile it on your own? I haven't tried using my own profile yet, but it seems like fetching the profile takes quite a while. Not sure if my internet connection affects that or not. Feels a bit too slow considering my connection is quite fast though (albeit I use VPN regularly).

I appreciate your effort to be able to build this. I also admire your passion to help newbies rank up.
The project is fine, but I feel there are a lot of information in it that could confuse some newbies. The formula is KISS (Keep It Simple and Straight). I also understand the nature of what you build demands so much explanations.

However, I have a different feelings to your project. Please don't be mad at me. I think that some of the tips or task will make newbies not to use the forum the natural way it should be used. I don't know if you understand me.

Take for instance this;
  • Post in Bitcointalk discussion
  • Reply to a Begineer’s question
  • Write 3+ paragraph post
  • Check new ANN threads
  • Review signature campaigns
  • Send sMerit to a quality post

I think it's leading users to use the forum not in their own way. I might be wrong that is my little input.


IMPORTANT NOTE

While onboarding, you will be asked to enter:
1. Username
2. UID
3. Select Local Board
4. Then fetch.
How about someone who doesn't belong to any locals, will they still proceed?

It's probably just what the AI came up with, since he mentioned that he used vibe coding to build the tool.

Yup, I agree. It does feel like you're just following pre-determined tasks instead of being a usual member. Maybe it's better if users can customize the checklist and choose what they want to do.

How about someone who doesn't belong to any locals, will they still proceed?
I tried the tool, seems like it's fine even if you don't choose a local board. It's optional, and it's main purpose is to provide you local crypto news and topic ideas.

Thanks for your feedback. You are right, the sounding of those checklists may come across too mechanical and task-oriented. I will surely refine those sections when I upgrade  the tool to the next version so the focus is mainly on healthy participation, learning, and contribution by anyone planning to use the tool for rank up.

How about someone who doesn't belong to any locals, will they still proceed?

Yes, they will still proceed. But under the Merit Lab tab, they will not get topic suggestions and local crypto news exclusively for their local board. They will only get a generic topic suggestion, and the suggestion is prioritized based on the current forum rank held by the user.

Feels a bit too slow considering my connection is quite fast though (albeit I use VPN regularly).

Thanks for the feedback. As of now, it is mostly based on the public Bitcointalk pattern and my research and observations. I am aware of which global boards merit sources are active, and that logic has been applied to the tool. The fetch speed mainly depends on the forum's response time, VPN routing, and Cloudflare delays. Sometimes there might be an issue with fetching, which is why I have also given the user the ability to manually enter the details and enter the tool.

Okay, so we can't really see the data publicly. It'd be interesting if you post such stats here. I'm sure it will lead to interesting discussion as long as it's clear how you collect and analyze the data. So it's safe to assume users internet quality has no impact on the fetching delays? I assume the CF itself is related to the server. I guess most people will end up inputting the data manually if the speed is too low anyway.

Not a single piece of data is collected by the tool or by me. I created this tool considering the fact that privacy should be the number one priority. The only data that is being collected is the UID, which is stored locally on the user's browser for fetching purposes. Yes, the internet quality does not impact on fethching of the data. If by any chance fetching fails, the user has the option to input the data manually. I am going to push an upgrade within few days which I am going to notify to the community on this thread.

Thank you for seeing reasons with me that the checklist seem to mechanical. I am looking forward to the improvement.

TBH, this will give new users a good direction as the platform is too wide and somehow not easy for newbies to comprehend.

The next update will have investigation abilities for anyone want to find the thief or the scammer. I am working on it, and if everything goes well, any user using this app will be able to identify Bounty, Signature campaign, games, and round alt accounts only by entering the UID. It is a work in progress; it will take time. Stay tuned for version 9.

Good efforts on the project @Cointikka Rankup tool looks interesting to me.
I see that you have included Local board in the best boards for merit, may be that's something you can consider.

Wow, this is going to be interesting. Kinda curious to know where you are getting info of alt accounts from.
May be you can include a scanning system from the reputation board to look for that information.

Post by: Cointikka on June 02, 2026, 05:57:32 AM
I have now pushed a new version. The earlier version was 8.1, and the new version is 8.2. A significant update has been made on the topic suggestion for the local board and global boards. Below is the list of changes in the new version.
Code:
##Live News Integration##
Topic suggestions can now use live Bitcoin and crypto news headlines.
If news data is available, the tool will use it alongside the existing topic database to generate posting ideas.

##Topic Suggestions##
Suggestions can now be generated from live headlines, market trends, and the existing topic database.
More weight is given to fresh and board-relevant topics.

##Source Tracking##
The tool now shows whether a suggestion came from live news, market movers, or the internal topic database.

##PWA / Branding##
Added favicon and Apple Touch icon support.
There may still be an issue with this feature, and I am investigating it.

##Other Changes##
Small improvements to sync/news handling.
Small improvements to streak tracking.

Please report on this thread if there is any issue. If you think another feature can be added or upgraded to the latest version, then do reply. I am always open to new suggestions. Thanks..

Great project, mate! Really interesting.
I saw that, like me, you’ve used Cloudflare Workers – what did you get on with this platform?
Did you use the free version? I’m asking because I’d like to buy the paid version but I’m looking for some feedback on it

Ok, after using your site for a couple of minutes, this is what I think. Most of these info related to ranking up is already available on Bitcointalk, so it is kind of unnecessary to me.

The opportunity section is helpful though, I can easily track signature, bounty, or raffle contests. They are live data right?

And why would you need the UID? Can't the tool fetch data using username only?

Might be missing feature: I tried looking for the settings, but didn't find any. So once a profile is fetched and stored locally, how do I delete that data and add a new one? I'm not able to check others profiles/stats...

Thanks, mate! I have hosted my tool on Cloudflare for free, but I am not using any workers for it. I am working on my investigation tool, which I will attach to this tool, and I might use a worker or GitHub repository for scraping purposes. As of now, I have not bought any services from Cloudflare. Your project is very big, and for the amount of scraping that it does I think you will need to make a purchase.

And why would you need the UID? Can't the tool fetch data using username only?

Might be missing feature: I tried looking for the settings, but didn't find any. So once a profile is fetched and stored locally, how do I delete that data and add a new one? I'm not able to check others profiles/stats...

Thanks for your feedback. UID is unique and does not change, whereas username can be similar and it can be changed, which is why I am using UID. I am going to add an exit or reset button in my future upgrade. Since the data is stored in the browser cache, you can delete the cache and start the tool. It will again start from the onboarding page.

That's right, and you're 100 per cent right. Every person is unique. There is no list here, no scheme that would allow us to step by step towards what attracted users to the forum. Most of all, the "FREE TOOL" completely kills the idea of a forum about learning about Bitcoin and turns it into the fact that the goal is to turn newcomers into legends. But this should always be a secondary achievement. The OP confused the purpose of the forum. OP, I don't care; I won't apologise. You can be offended. But your schemes will turn newbies into players who will forget why they came to the forum.

Thank you for your valuable feedback. The tool is still a work in progress, and I have already made a good number of upgrades after listening to the community. My primary goal is to help Brand New, Newbie, Jr. Member, Member, Full Member, and somewhat Sn. Member. You cannot deny the fact that this is the only forum dedicated to Bitcoin and gives the opportunity to earn Bitcoin. I mean, not everyone comes from a first-world country, and a lot of new users come here to make their name and earn Bitcoin after working in Signature Campaign. That is why I created this tool, and as I have said earlier, this is just the beginning, and it will take me nearly six months or more to make this tool perfect.

BTW.. I have pushed a small upgrade after the feedback given to me by @DYING_S0UL.

Code:
** Logout Button**

I have added this button to reset the browser cache so that you can start with the onboarding again..



Thanks for your feedback, it encourages me to make this tool more efficient and promising. Please keep supporting me with your constructive feeback.

I have now passed a new version of my app. From version 9, it has been upgraded to version 9.5. I have added three more sub-tabs. The first one is Count Your Post under the GROWTH tab. The DISCOVER tab now has Forum Veteran Score and BTC explorer. I have also added a worker for robust and instant scraping purposes. Below is a summary created using an AI about these subtabs.
Code:
## [v9.5] - 2026-06-17

### Added

- **[Count Your Post]** Users can now pick a custom start and end date for This Week. Last Week is derived automatically as the 7 days immediately preceding the selected start date, removing the need for manual calculation. Post counts are scraped directly from the user's Bitcointalk post history on Sync rather than estimated.

- **[Forum Veteran Score]** New composite scoring system (0–100) auto-populated from synced profile data. Covers account age, post history, merit, and activity. Optional login time input (self-reported from profile page) unlocks a Commitment Bonus on top of the base score. Includes Veteran Rating Badge, Bitcoin Era Generation tag, Halvings Witnessed counter, Account Age Percentile, and a shareable Veteran Summary Card.

- **[BTC Explorer]** Live Bitcoin network dashboard powered by mempool.space. Includes real-time BTC price, block height, mempool transaction count, and fast fee rate refreshed every 30 seconds. Users can look up any Bitcoin address, transaction ID, or block height. Also ships with a Sats ⇄ BTC ⇄ USD converter using live pricing, a recurring Earnings Tracker for calculating historical USD→BTC campaign payments, and a Recent Blocks and fee tier chart.

### Changed

- Version bumped from `v9` to `v9.5`.
- Count Your Post disclaimer updated to clarify that Last Week is calculated automatically and that counts are pulled after Sync, not before.
It would be great if you could use the new version and come up with feedback on this thread. I am still working on it, and I will update this thread when I again upgrade this app to v10. You can check it if you check my profile as shown in my profile.

I have now passed a new version of my app. From version 9, it has been upgraded to version 9.5.
OP, I clicked the link in your profile but the version is still v9.

https://i.bitlist.co/DFaEEazk8vww.png

Some bugs that I found:
- I noticed that the "↗ Open Local Boards on Bitcointalk" button in the Merit Lab tab, always redirect me to board 160, which is the Mining (Altcoins) board.
- And then in the Forum Veteran Score tab, my Account Age Percentile is Top 1%. There must be something wrong with the calculation.

Edit:
Thanks @Hashura and @joniboini for pointing out the local board linking issue.
No problem! I don't think I'll be using the tool moving forward, but I'm glad that I was able to help. :D

Maybe a caching issue? I checked the website and it shows 9.5 now.

I noticed that the "↗ Open Local Boards on Bitcointalk" button in the Merit Lab tab, always redirect me to board 160, which is the Mining (Altcoins) board.
Did you put your Local board when you're doing the onboarding process? If I understand it correctly you can input it manually there before you can click the link correctly. If you haven't done so then the option won't be active, CMIIW. maybe the auto-fetch fails to recognize the local board properly.

Yes, I chose Pilipinas local board. I even logged out and tested other local boards, and it still redirect me to board 160.

Thanks @Hashura and @joniboini for pointing out the local board linking issue. It has now been sorted out. While onboarding, if you select your local board, you will now get a link to correct the local board inside the Merit Lab tab.

And then in the Forum Veteran Score tab, my Account Age Percentile is Top 1%.

The calculation is done based on these factors:
1. Account Age
2. Merits
3. Activity
4. Rank
Everything is displayed in the form of cards when you check the Veteran score.

Is it only possible through that? Might be minor feature but I think it would be a good option if user can edit it after the onboarding is done. I can see it being repurposed to track other boards for example, or just switching to other local board because they know different languages.

Hello Cointikka, I have a confusion here..inside your merit lab, it says no local board is selected and that I have to select it again through setup! Where exactly is this? I'm not seeing this option.

And what should a user do if they have't got a local board yet, but they do engage in local discussions through a local thread inside the other language section? Bangladesh, Pakistan still don't have any local boards yet, but they have a decent amount of users/activity/posts....

Edit: Sorry man my bad, i didn't realize i needed to log out to access the setup box...imo, you should just should just add a seperated option for adding local board and skip this setup process. Also keeping in mind, about the local threads, you should include an option to add local thread via their link...for those who still missing out a dedicated board.

That's an interesting question. Have they tried to request one on Meta?

Adding an option with their link will change how the scrapper work I assume, but it's definitely an option. Although I'm not sure how effective it will in regard to helping people rank up effectively. Maybe tracking a dedicated thread to help gain merit is also an option.

Post by: Cointikka on June 20, 2026, 09:52:51 AM
@DYING_S0UL and @joniboini, thanks for your feedback.

During onboarding, when a user selects the local board from the dropdown menu, you will see these two options shown in the screenshot. The Other languages/locations will take you to the board ID: 11, which is where you will find those regions that do not have a dedicated local board. If a user selects Not in a local board then no local board links will be shown in the Merit lab tab.

About whether an option to change the board should be added to the same tab. I might add this feature in the future, but it is not my priority now.


I have pushed another upgrade without changing the version.
Code:
RankUp Tracker — Changelog
Topic Suggestions (Merit Lab & Merit Analytics)

Fixed: live news and Market Movers were sometimes suggesting altcoin topics (e.g. Solana, Dogecoin) for Bitcoin Discussion, where they don't belong and won't earn merit.
News headlines are now filtered for actual Bitcoin relevance — pure altcoin stories with no Bitcoin angle are excluded entirely instead of being routed to the wrong board.
Stories with an indirect Bitcoin angle (Fed/rate decisions, gold, ETF flows, institutional adoption, etc.) are now labeled as such and properly routed to Economics.
Market Movers-based suggestions now only appear when BTC itself is moving, or when there's a broad market-wide move worth a Bitcoin-angle post — isolated altcoin pumps no longer generate a suggested topic.
Topic suggestions are now routed by content type (technical → Development & Technical, mining → Mining, macro → Economics, general → Bitcoin Discussion) instead of always defaulting to one board.


Merit Analytics

Added sub-tabs (Overview / Boards & Threads / Topic Ideas), matching the Merit Lab layout, instead of one long scrolling page.

Known issue (not yet fixed)

Local Crypto News Headlines doesn't reliably surface local-language news — regional feeds are missing for several local boards, and when present they're often crowded out by global sources in the ranking. Fix planned for a future update.

Added a merit history log (btr_merit_history_v1 in localStorage) that saves a {date, merit, activity} snapshot every time you sync.
The Rank Predictor now calculates your real merit/month rate from that history and auto-fills the "Merit per month" field with it, instead of the hardcoded default of 5.
A small note under the field shows where the number came from (auto-calculated vs. manual), with a one-click toggle between the two.
Needs at least 2 synced days before it switches from default to real data; manual stat edits don't get logged, so they can't skew the rate.

Removed the Milestone goals card. Your rank milestones (Jr. Member → Legendary) are already tracked on the Dashboard and Rank Tracker pages, with more detail than this card had. It was redundant, so it's gone — Daily Goals now has the full-width card to itself.
Streak is now verified, not self-reported. Previously the streak just counted how many days in a row you clicked "Posted Today" — nothing stopped you from clicking it without actually posting. Now the app checks your synced activity score: a day only counts toward your streak if your activity figure actually went up between two real syncs. No more click-to-confirm button — just sync regularly and the streak builds itself from real evidence.

I would humbly request you to suggest local news output web services to solve the issue with Local Crypto News Headlines as I do not have any ideas of whom to go for the RSS aggregation in countries that are local to you and they publish crypto news. BTW.. I have used AI to create the changelog.

I have added an Image Cropper tool. Any user can now crop, rotate, resize, and batch-process images entirely using this tool. Nothing is uploaded to any server, and your pictures never leave your device. Below is the list of the features.
Code:
**Image Cropper** 🖼️✂️

- 📋 Paste images directly from clipboard (Ctrl+V) or drag-and-drop
- 🔍 Zoom slider (50–300%) for precision cropping
- ⌨️ Arrow-key nudging for pixel-perfect adjustments
- 🔢 Type exact X/Y/W/H values instead of dragging
- 🔄 Rotate (L/R) and Flip (H/V) built in
- ⤺ One-click "Reset Box" to start over
- 🔬 Magnifier loupe while resizing handles
- 📦 Batch mode — crop multiple images with the same settings in one go
- 🧭 Auto-fixes sideways phone photos (EXIF orientation)
- ⚠️ Warns when crop box hits minimum size
- 🖱️ Double-click/tap to snap crop to full image
- 💾 Remembers your last format/quality/ratio
- 📏 Live estimated output file size before download
- 👆 Bigger touch targets for mobile resizing
- ⚡ Smoother, lag-free dragging

Please use the tool, and as always, I am open to feedback.

@Cointikka

Does opportunity section includes all the recent games & rounds & contests & raffles or only the active ones?

I saw one contest thread that was added recently, but the winner has also been selected and thread locked, but it's still showing on the opportunity section.

Moreover what's with this message?

News headlines unavailable right now
The RSS proxy services that fetch crypto news could not be reached. This usually resolves itself — click ⟳ Refresh to try again, or check your internet connection.


FYI, refreshing did not work.



That's an interesting question. Have they tried to request one on Meta?

One of our local member did, long ago, but the thread is inactive now, due to less activity and long waiting period. Someone needs to bump it now, given these days we see a lot of other posts like "requesting to be a merit source". :P

The RSS feed fetching was being done using proxies from the frontend. I have now shifted them to the worker. It should now work properly.


EDIT: The fetching logic has been changed for Game and Round.
Code:
Threads are now sorted by their actual creation date — read from the first post of each thread — so the 5 newest threads always appear first. The onboarding process is now interactive and simplified.

I have also added a simple and yet logical onboarding process with some CSS effects. I hope you guys like it. If you want to see it then click on logout if you are already logged in. If not, then click the link (https://dry-mouse-8ee9.cointikka.workers.dev/). I am currently working on GIF image creator and then I think I should work on a MEME creator. What do you guys think?

Unfortunately I can't, I don't see it anymore under the Games and Round section. I'll let you know when I encounter it again.

Yeah the RSS feed fetching is working now, I randomly selected a user and their boards, and now it's showing news from Coindesk, Cointelegraph, Bitcoin magazine, Decrypt etc..

I do not understand this CSS effect thing. I was logged in, then logged out, but saw nothing fancy or anything.

Is this the lightning effect on the background + sounds? Honestly I don't really think it matters to me whether it exist or not. I guess I like simple things better. As long as the script doesn't require lots of processing power I guess it's fine. Not sure about the logical onboarding part though.

Yes, it is just for entertainment on the app. I would ask you for suggestions for someone who holds your rank. What kind of tools do you think will encourage Hero and Legendary rank members, as I think I have all those tools for newbie to Full Members.

I am planning to create a [talkimg.com] like image hosting tab, but it seems there are already too many apps doing it. If you can suggest some or a few ideas.
Thanks again for your feedback.

Added a new tab Campaign Tracker to the app under Tools. If you are part of a signature campaign, then you can use the tool by selecting the date range using the calendar and then clicking Sync Live Stats. It will display the number of posts created in the selected week range, as well as in the previous week. It will display the number of posts created on which boards and subboards, and the daily breakdown of them all under the Count Your Posts sub tab. Under the Check Your Posts, it will display date, thread, board, and this week and last week information. So if you have 30 posts this week and 24 posts last week, all of them will be displayed in this sub tab.

I would request the community to use this tool and write feedback about it. Thanks

Actually rankup tracker isn't needed a simple thread count solve this. Campaign tracker look somewhat useful but it gives wrong data. I didn't post in reputation within 10 days but it shows 1 post made in reputation. There should be a filter option which will filter out some boards in final post count.

Can you give me the date range for me to come up with a fix? Yes, that is a good idea. Eliminating boards using a filter before the scraping process. Thanks for using the app and suggesting an improvement.

Edit: I did a check from the date range of 20th June to 28th June and found that it does show 1 post made on the Reputation board. Did some digging and found that you did post on that board.

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2026/06/29/ULmH6Z.jpg

I still like your suggestion of creating a filter, which I will add in the next update.
Thanks for using the tool.

BTW.. It looks like the TALKIMG tool is not able to provide good dimensions for a new user like me to post a clear image that is good for the forum. They have limited dimensions, which is bad, as per my understanding. I am going to add a few codes to the image cropper tool to suggest the dimensions of an image before downloading, which could help people like me to edit the dimensions or can download the dimension-cropped image depending on where they want to post the image.

I don't know if you are aware of this or not, but TryNinja released his own image hosting service for Bitcointalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5582803.0) last month. One of its features is editing and resizing images before uploading them. Maybe you will have more luck with that tool or it will inspire you to create something even better.

Data do not lie, it isn't something that should give an inaccurate pointer. Glad you discovered that they made a single post in the reputation board, maybe they forgot.

Meanwhile, if I make an original post in the meta and it was moved to reputation, during scraping, where will the post belong.

I have used the BitList image hosting a couple times but I didn't discover the image editing and resizing function. If the images can be resized, TryNinja should then make a standard size for mobile and desktop upload. Although, images vary.

Try the new updated image cropper; I have passed a new update. The image cropper is no longer a dedicated cropping app for Bitcointalk. It can be used for everything. It is still a work in progress. In the future, I intend it to be optimized for every social media platform and Bitcointalk with BBcode recommendations.

Thanks for your feedback. I hope you continue to use the platform now and help me improve it further.

After you drag and drop an image to the service, you will see an "Edit/resize" button on the right. Click on that and do your thing. That's how it is on a desktop computer. The UI might be somewhat different on phones. I don't know.

If the images can be resized, TryNinja should then make a standard size for mobile and desktop upload. Although, images vary.
I don't agree. There shouldn't be a standard because each image is different. One size that fits all isn't going to work for everyone and for all purposes. Just resize them according to your own taste.

How should I try it, by purposely making a post in meta and then moving it to the reputation board? If so, it's not something I can do. It will be an overkill to quench curiosity ;D

Your words persuaded me to take a thorough look at your project again. You honestly did a great work. This is just one tool that comprises many functions. I had fun surfing your project;

I looked at the different generations and saw that I belonged to the ETF era and I was also reminded that I haven't witnessed any halfing ;D

I am 64% close to my next rank, which is not bad.

Most importantly, I used the DCA calculator from last month to May 2030, the data was fetched, stating how many buys and how much of my investment but I was longing to see some kind of percentage project of price. I didn't know if it was the 20+% I saw. That would be poor for 4 years, unless I missed the peak of 2030 bull run.

i gave +1 merit and I will explore the more here.

Hey! I am happy to see that you enjoyed the tool. I never expected such good feedback, which made my day. I appreciate your merit, but I would appreciate it more if you promoted the tool to your community. Especially those of your rank, as this tool, with a few drawbacks compared to existing tools, does 70 percent of the job. A must-try is the image cropper tool; it is compatible with any kind of mobile device and mobile OS.

I am in the process of creating a tool that is a one-stop to everything a Member to Hero rank holder needs. I am presently working on the future features. Which I am sure you will like them. Thanks again for using the too and I hope you keep using it as I pass updates every 3 days. So keep coming. ;)

I now feel this project is complete. I have added a lot of free tools to the existing rank-up tracker for now, which will not be free in a few months. After I checked the amount of traffic I am gaining, I am planning to put this tool under a domain name. That I will do after I create an ANN page on the relevant board.

I am using the AI to tell you the USPs of my free tool. So please ignore if you are from the AI detection in-house enthusiastic users team (who use AI to detect AI content ;D ;D )

What was my original Plan?
It was simple: create a rankup tracker using vibe coding to help users who hold Jr.Member rank to Senior Member. I used the feedback given to me on this thread and created a tool that is not only for Bitcointalk users but also for Bitcoin holders and for those who plan to be part of the Bitcoin journey. Isn't that an amazing idea for a startup?

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2026/07/13/UcyK9H.jpg

I created a few tools dedicated to those who hold Bitcoin and who are paying for these features, which are free for now. I am listing those tools below.


📈 Rank & Merit Tracker
This is the heart of Cointikka. Drop in your UID and it pulls your live Activity, Merit, sMerit, and Total Posts straight off the forum — no more manually checking your profile page every hour like a paranoid Newbie. You get a visual rank ladder showing exactly where you stand between Newbie and Legendary, a Today's Checklist for quick daily wins, and a full Rank Requirements table so you always know exactly what's standing between you and your next promotion. If you've ever lost track of your Activity math, this alone will save you.

🧠 Merit Lab (inside the Tracker)
Ever stare at the "New Topic" button with zero idea what to post? Merit Lab fixes that. It gives you live regional news + CoinGecko "Market Movers" for local board discussions, plus rank-matched topic suggestions for merit-active global boards like Bitcoin Discussion or Economics — each one tagged 🟢/🟡/🔴 so you know if it's underserved or already beaten to death. There's also a built-in Merit Guide that finally explains merit → sMerit math in plain English.

📊 Merit Analytics, Rank Predictor & Goals/Streaks (inside the Tracker)
This is the part that keeps me coming back honestly. Analyze shows your raw stats and trends, Insights surfaces milestones you'd have otherwise missed, and Perspective gives you the "why keep grinding" long view based on your actual history — not generic motivational fluff. The Rank Predictor projects a realistic promotion timeline from your real posting velocity and merit pace. And streaks here are sync-verified against real Activity movement across different days, so it can't be gamed by just opening the app and closing it again.

🗳️ Signature Campaign Tracker
(unlocks at Member rank) — Built for anyone running sig campaigns. "Count Your Post" gives you This Week vs Last Week totals with board-by-board and day-by-day breakdowns, while "Check Your Post" gives you a searchable, sortable log of every individual post with a direct link, so you're never scrambling to prove your weekly count to a campaign manager again.

🎯 Merit & Bounty Opportunities (inside the Tracker)
Live-pulled straight from the forum, filterable by Signature / Bounties / Games & Rounds, so you can see what's actually open right now instead of digging through five different ANN threads.

🔍 Profile Analyzer & Forum Veteran Score (inside the Tracker)
Profile Analyzer rolls your activity, merit, and posting patterns into one Profile Health Score with personalized, actionable recommendations plus a rank-comparison table showing exactly what separates you from the next tier. Veteran Score is just for fun but it's a nice touch — a 0-100 score based purely on your synced stats, plus your "Bitcoin Era Generation" and how many halvings you've witnessed since you joined. There's even a shareable Veteran Summary Card if you want to flex it in your sig or a post.



📊 Bitcoin DCA Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Model what a recurring Bitcoin buy — daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly — would've turned into over time, fees included, using real historical prices pulled live from CoinGecko. Great for anyone in here trying to decide whether to lump-sum or stack sats steadily.

🧾 Bitcoin Tax Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Log your buys, sells, income (mining/staking/airdrops/payments), gifts, donations, and internal transfers, pick your jurisdiction and cost-basis method, and get an estimated gain/loss breakdown — all calculated and stored locally on your own device. Not a substitute for a real tax pro, but genuinely useful for keeping your own records straight instead of a messy spreadsheet.

💰 Bitcoin Profit Calculator (Free, no UID needed)
Pick any purchase date back to April 2013, compare it to today (or any other date), and see what that stack would be worth now — complete with a price-journey chart and results in 160+ currencies. One-click "copy to clipboard" if you want to share your gains (or pain) in a thread.

🔎 Bitcoin Blockchain Explorer (Free, no UID needed)
A proper all-in-one explorer — look up addresses, transactions, and blocks, run conversions, track earnings, and check live fee rates, all with a top ticker showing current BTC price, latest block, mempool size, and sat/vByte fees at a glance. No need to bounce between five different sites anymore.

🕵️ Bitcoin Wallet Privacy Checker (Free, no UID needed)
Quick, no-nonsense check for whether you're reusing addresses — one of the most common (and avoidable) privacy leaks in Bitcoin. Worth running on any wallet you use regularly.

✂️ Image Cropper (Free, no UID needed)
Built specifically with avatars and signature images in mind. Drag-and-drop or paste, zoom/pan, rotate/flip, preset aspect ratios, a precision magnifier, automatic EXIF orientation fixing (so your sideways phone photos come in straight), and a batch queue if you've got a stack of images to crop in one go. It also hands off directly into BBCode Image Studio when you're ready to post.

🖼️ BBCode Image Studio (unlocks at Full Member rank)
Generates ready-to-paste BBCode for post images, topic/ANN banners, and sponsored image campaigns with custom dimensions per destination — no more hand-typing image tags or guessing at sizes. Handles multiple images at once too, so you can queue up a whole campaign's worth of banners in one sitting.



Everything above runs client-side — your stats, your tax entries, your images, all of it stays in your browser. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere. Give it a spin and let me know what you think, or what you'd want to see added next.

Bump

If anyone is seeing any errors, please report. I have now put the tool on the domain  🔗cointikka.net  (https://cointikka.net/). I am still working on it. And still, the tool gives me 50 to 100 views daily. I do not have any detailed or in-depth information; the tool gives me pages, as the tool holds everything on a single page. I am currently working on distributing the tools on standalone pages for every tool.

I hope you understand my problems, as I am still developing my skills as a vibe coder without any coding language. I still know how the architecture works from my experience as a blogger, SEO expert, and social media analyst. I will be updating the new update shortly, most probably by next Sunday this week.
