-KDE Plasma 5 widget die de bitcoinprijs in EUR toont, opgehaald bij de
+KDE Plasma 5 widget that shows the bitcoin price in EUR, fetched from the
 [CoinGecko API](https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/simple/price?ids=bitcoin&vs_currencies=eur).
 
-## Weergave
+## Display styles
 
-| Situatie | Weergave |
+Three display styles, configurable in the settings dialog:
+
+| Style | Description |
 |---|---|
-| Prijs gestegen t.o.v. vorige meting | groen |
+| *Plain text* | Trend-colored text (green/red/grey) |
-| Prijs gedaald t.o.v. vorige meting | rood |
+| *Split-flap board* | Airport board: white digit flaps, white € sign in the default font, cascading flip animation on price changes (configurable duration), trend LED |
-| Prijs gelijk gebleven (of eerste meting) | grijs |
+| *Nixie tubes* | Retro amber glowing digits in glass tubes with configurable random flicker, white € sign in the default font, trend LED |
-| API-fout (netwerkfout, 4xx/5xx, rate limit 429) | `--` |
 
-Formaat: `₿ 68.969 €` — duizendtallen volgens de systeemlocale, afgerond op hele euro's.
+In the split-flap and nixie styles the digits keep their display color and the
+trend (up/down/unchanged) is shown on a small LED next to the display.
+Display style changes apply immediately, without restarting the shell.
 
-## Configuratie
+| Situation | Plain text color | Trend LED |
+|---|---|---|
+| Price up | green | green |
+| Price down | red | red |
+| Price unchanged / first reading | grey | grey |
+| API failure (network error, 4xx/5xx, rate limit 429) | `--` | grey |
 
-- **Vernieuwinterval (minuten)** — standaard 5, minimaal **5**, maximaal 1440.
+Format: `68,969 €` (thousands separators follow the system locale, rounded to

+whole euros) preceded by the bundled Bitcoin icon in the compact and full
+representations.
 
-Instelbaar via rechtsklik op de widget → *Configureer Bitcoin-prijs* → *Algemeen*.
+## Configuration
 
-## Installatie
+- **Refresh interval (minutes)** — default 5, minimum **5**, maximum 1440.
+  The 5-minute floor exists because the CoinGecko API allows one request per
+  5 minutes. A hint text in the config dialog explains this.
+- **Split-flap cascade (seconds)** — default 3, range 1–15. Spreads the flip
+  animation of a price change evenly over this many seconds (applies to the
+  split-flap display style). Only shown when that style is selected.
+- **Nixie flicker (0 = off)** — default 40, range 0–100. Random cathode-dropout
+  flicker of the nixie tubes; 0 disables it, higher values flicker more often
+  and deeper. Only shown when the nixie style is selected.
 
-### Grafisch
+Configurable via right-click on the widget → *Configure Bitcoin Price…* → *General*.
-Dubbelklik op `dist/bitcoin-price-1.0.0.plasmoid` in Dolphin (Plasma installeert
+
-dan automatisch naar `~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/`).
+## Installation
+
+### Graphical
+Double-click `bitcoin-price-1.3.0.plasmoid` in Dolphin (Plasma installs it to
+`~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/` automatically). The latest build is attached
+to the [v1.3.0 release](../../releases/tag/v1.2.0).
 
 ### Terminal
 ```bash
-kpackagetool5 --type Plasma/Applet --install dist/bitcoin-price-1.0.0.plasmoid
+kpackagetool5 --type Plasma/Applet --upgrade bitcoin-price-1.3.0.plasmoid
-# widget toevoegen via Add Widgets; bij twijfel plasma herladen:
+# Then restart the shell if needed:
 plasmashell --replace &
 ```
 
-Verwijderen:
+Upgrading an already-installed widget requires `--upgrade` (`--install` fails
+when the plugin id already exists).
+
+Uninstall:
 ```bash
 kpackagetool5 --type Plasma/Applet --remove nl.a14r.bitcoinprice
 ```

-## Repository-layout
+## Debugging
+
+The widget logs to the plasmashell journal:
+
+```bash
+journalctl --user -u plasma-plasmashell.service | grep bitcoinprice
+```
+
+Expected lines: `started, refresh interval: N minutes`, `fetched EUR <price>`,
+or `fetch failed, HTTP status: <code>`.
