We're launching www.coined.com in a few weeks. It will provide real-time tracking of altcoins across 100+ exchanges.

I realize from time to time we probably all want to see how an altcoin we have invested in is doing compared to Bitcoin. But in your daily or regular routine of checking the prices of altcoins you follow or are invested in, is the BTC value something you look at: never, rarely, often, or always?

For me more important of course Fiat. I look at this value when I'm going to calculate the possible or profit. I do not understand why you need to compare with bitcoin, now it's just pointless

I consider more often in Fiat, because I'm not interested in making a profit only in bitcoins. I am interested in having the opportunity to sell altcoins for real money in the future

I follow the price of altcoins comparing to $ and to BTC or ETH depending on which altcoin it is. It is important to
know price movements  how they behave in comparison to the market. It is important when trading and for investment
decisions as well.

From general observation, people (80%) tends to check pair price in both fiat and BTC and most of the exchange platform pairs is in both. I always check mine in BTC because from experience have come to learn that BTC pair is more real than fiat. take for instance a friend of mine made a trade which he checked the price using Fiat and encountered a great loss because the price was staged. I think i will stick with Pair in BTC

I think knowing the price of the token in SATs is a lot more better than in fiat
Because literally, the price is usd is mostly fake as compared to real prices on exchange rate

Always look vividly the sat value and not depend on usd price
Basically, as a trader, the main reason I trade altcoins is to increase my bitcoin stash, no offense to altcoin fans, as I see altcoins more as a short term thing anyway, and in that case, I basically look at their pairs compared to bitcoin. Nonetheless, this does not change the fact that there are some few altcoins that I believe in their long term usage and growth, which most definitely there is no harm in at least holding some of them for the long term as the case may be, and in that case, I can at least be checking their value when compared to fiat as well as btc.

Comparison of Altcoins with Bitcoins sometimes occurs, while with Fiat regularly. Thank you.
It is actually the two that comes into mind most of the time, and most of the exchanges anyway when it comes to trading most fiat, has a lot to do with bitcoin pairs and few fiat pairs. This is not a bad service at all and will be a good thing to see it come into play. I check bitcoin and fiat value, so if in a way the platform can integrate both system of checking altcoins with fiat and with bitcoin, it won't be a bad idea at all. It depends on the market I am holding anyway that would determine if I am checking fiat pair or btc pair.

Definitely, I count with fiat because that's what from which I can accumulate my profit/loss. BTC value can't fix my profit or loss. If BTC price decreases, definitely I will not be happy with the same price I had bought my alt.
Counting in either fiat ($) or btc (satoshi) have both advantages and disadvantages, but counting in satoshi is better, most especially for traders. A trader would always consider price in satoshi, because his trades will always be measured by that per unit of the coin or token he ius buying or selling.

The value in bitcoin is what I care about, after all when I invest in an altcoin I am investing bitcoins not fiat, and also I am not interested that much in multiplying the amount of fiat that I'm holding, I'm really worried about multiplying the amount of bitcoin instead because I know that in the future it is going to be one of the main currencies around the world and I want to have a lot of it.

I know that it is more correct to count the amount in bitcoin, but recently I Count also  the dollar ( in the case when I invest in the short term or medium term). If i count in bitcoin, then my investments made a year and a half ago in a big minus. However, converting into dollar equivalent - I'm in profit. One thing I know for sure - if I was smarter at that time , I would leave 70-80% of investments in bitcoin, not 20%.

It is more convenient and practical to view the price of altcoins in ordinary currency, in this case it can be stable coins like USDT, TUSD and others. Comparing the price of altcoins with a bitcoin does little in practice, well, we get a figure in which there will be six zeros after the comma and then other numbers, and what it gives us. Vseravno, to understand its value, this figure must be carried out in a common currency.

I always share the investment. I like to invest in both altcoins and bitcoins.

I lost a lot of money on Ethereum and am waiting for my investments to start generating revenue.

BTC moves on its own, if anyone wants to control BTC it is impossible. BTC is the father of our coins, which is clear that all altcoins face BTC

Yes, we feel the urge to see our portfolio from time to time but I think there are already some apps and websites which does the job well like blockfolio app and delta app.

And also the exchanges like binance and kucoin have their dedicated apps so we can use them too for convenience.

I bet this would be like the apps I use, I use Coinlib, Coinstats and CoinGecko, although CoinGecko is a website but others has their mobile apps... I prefer seeing my prices in fiat especially in my local currency, Coinlib offers this service and that is why it is one of my favourite coin tracking apps. I can view the value of any coin or token in my local currency.

I personally see the daily price of altcoin is only based on btc, I only use the fiat pair if I want to sell crypto assets to fiat or cash money for living needs, that is also the altcoin I have to swap into btc, then to fiat. I hope the OP can immediately release coined, so that we can use and feel the benefits of the products that they make.

It depends on what are you doing with alt coins: invest or trade and in which pair, blockfolio is a good one for this aim.

To be able to see the value of altcoins with fiat, it follows coinmarketcap and other exchanges that can provide information on the price of each coin. By monitoring market information we can find out the prices and volumes that are being heard.

I prefer dollars. I am not invested in this stuff to make more money or get rich to be honest. I am invested in crypto world because I want to retire earlier than I need to. I don't know how that will be, maybe I will buy couple shops and retire thank to rent, maybe I will put it in a bank, maybe I will get a lot of stocks from a company.

I don't know how it will be but my end needs to be me sitting at home collecting cash which means I need dollars for now. If bitcoin gets big enough to be accepted everywhere in the world than I can care about bitcoin prices of the altcoins but until that day I need my dollar amount to increase. Now I know thats wrong thinking and I should focus on bitcoin adoption instead of getting rich but at this point I am tired of yelling the same thing to people so I may just give up.

the strategies that people use are different.
on one hand we have altcoin bag holder newbies who are buying a ton of altcoins and they care about the fiat value of it because they are looking for becoming rich this way. these people lose money and give up so they won't last in the long run.
on another hand we have day traders who invest their bitcoin and increase it, these people don't need some application to keep track of value of altcoins they own because they don't hold them that long! they sell and move on to another to make more profit and do it constantly instead of staying idle.

I usually see or monitor altcoin prices and others at Coinmarketcap. That's all I can find. But maybe there is something else here? The faster the drilling is compared to the coinmarketcap.

Well obviously investors will like to know the price both in terms of bitcoin and fiat, recently eth based token trend has also been on the rise so i think mentioning the value in terms of eth is also in demand now so best would be to offer the price in all these three.

I prefer to know the price in bitcoin or Etherum trade unit
It’s more convenient trading in that way

But it’s better to have a fixed price alert on your phone such as blockfolio so you can get instant alert directly

there are alot of service that offers data about the prices but i dont think they update their data every second, it might be good if your service offer real time tracking like refreshing every second unlike coinmarketcap that updates every 1 minute or 2, you should make a android/ios app because they are some people love looking at prices on their phone if they are away from their computer.

I've two categories of investment, fiat to alt and btc to alt. And keeping a track of same price won't let me know my profit and loss.
But mostly my portfolio is based on BTC as I'm not interested in selling off the coins sooner and want to know my trading profit or loss in bitcoins.

Personally, i deal more with altcoins, because that is where i get my profit from. The reason for this is that, you cannot rely so much on the price of most altcoins. Just as easily as some would pump, so also they can dump easily, which makes one to constantly monitor.
Most times, traders and investors do this and it is more common to traders.
As for monitoring, bitcoin, i also do it, but not often.

I always see prices from various aspects. I always pay attention to FIAT calculations and I also see Altcoin prices with the basic calculation of Bitcoin. In my opinion that when we can read more data then we can do analysis better. That will help the investment we have and we will be able to make the best decisions.

Believe that when we analyze and read data more and more we will get closer to success in our lives !!

I like to check the CMC or Blockfolio every day. But it is getting harder and harder to see my portfolio decreasing for the last ten, eleven months. I want finally to look at my portfolio and to see X2 in one day.

So do I, i prefer check the progress of btc and altcoins's price in coinmarketcap because in my opinion that website can be trusted. I always check the price of altcoins in fiat and btc because i want to compare both of them to choose what is the best choice to change my altcoin in fiat or invest it in btc.

I use another site to check the movement of prices, as well as commissions for exchanges translated into Fiat, but very rarely I look at bitcoin movements, knowing that my investment does not depend on it exactly.
