I am not having any apps or website to track the portfolio. I would just put everything in the MEW so that I can check them out on the etherscan itself. That's the most easier way to keep track of your tokens. Also it gives you total estimate of the account in single view. It's dynamic scanner so the values are always updated.

All right, just came back to say I tried out Blockfolio after seeing it being recommended here. My 3-year old Asus (Android) has probably been due an upgrade for a long time but this app doesn't handle quickly enough for me. I thought it'd be light but maybe light today doesn't match with an old phone. I'd liked to have been able to modify the news feed though, I get enough of the sources and would like to add a few of my own within the app.

Does anyone know a good desktop app to use? Google shows me a few, but I wonder what everyone else uses?

With "precision"? Blockfolio is horrible, their prices are always outdated by more than 15 seconds of delay, that is why Delta is much more better.

Anyway, i am usually checking my delta app more than 3 times a day, but not more than that.

And taking a look over them during bearish days is like a poison, lmao..


15 seconds is nothing, I don't need to act immediately as I'm more interested in management features rather than trading tools. But I'll look at Delta later and give that a try. And yeah, checking them daily is seriously bad for your (mental) health. I've really cut down on constant price checking (and I'm a holder!).

I am using blockfolio for more than 3 months and found it enough to track my crypto portfolio with precision. They provide all tools and features needed to track your daily and all time profit loss with individual coin. As well as you can add alert for different price ranges for almost all alts.

For some people keeping track of their portfolio is quite easy if they only have Bitcoin and keep it in their wallet - this means they only have to multiply current price with the amount of coins they own, but when people start getting into alts and multiple exchanges, things become more complicated. The easiest method is to use spreadsheets, but they still require a lot of input if you can't get the price automatically. Then there are apps that can be linked to your exchange accounts.

1. What portfolio tracking tools do you use?

2. What features do you want to see in apps? Do you want to connect them to your exchange accounts or also have an option to input your portfolio? Do you want to have a desktop version?
I'm old school, I know there are apps for almost anything you can imagine, but when it comes to keep track of huge amount of numbers and make fast calculations nothing beats excel or their equivalents, just create a spreadsheet and create the formulas and you can easily compare anytime period between your investments, it is a little bit of work of course, but you can decide which stats you are interested in seeing and you are not dependent on the developer of some app.

Simple portfolio tracking tools might not be that accurate due to a pretty simple reason that prices of various coins are largely varied over various exchanges. While the second option is just highly risky. You can't even think of connecting all your exchanges to a central platform. I hold a  hell lot of alts and its almost impossible for me to predict the inventory at a certain time. Because price is too largely fluctuating and decimals create much larger problems.

But yes now I really want a spreadsheet of  my own which could pick up all my values automatically from the exchanges. Everyone could have such a customized sheet where you could just fill the number of coins you hold and the value can be calculated automatically.

1. I mostly used BLOCKFOLIO app. Im using this app for several months now. Interface is good and user friendly. You must check it out to see if it will be fit to your criteria.

2. Desktop version is optional. It's quiet more convenient to track portfolios on mobile app so that anywhere you can accessed it.

There are times that a certain coin isn't listed on Blockfolio. So for this, I manually searched for it on Coinmarketcap via Google search (Token name + Coinmarketcap) and checking it regularly especially if I have a hoard coins of it. If still, it's not available on CMC then no choice but to go directly in their exchange market link (e.g Bitcoinstake Yobit).

Good old spreadsheets plus notepad for me. Some tools within exchanges are pretty decent, but since I have many accounts across several exchanges, it does get pretty difficult to stick to them. I don't do heavy trading so I guess that helps. And from mid last year, I basically stopped wasting time on scores of alts, my portfolio pretty much stands at around 15 currencies including Bitcoin. I do live to regret at least one of the casualties from my spring cleaning... Raiblocks I'm talking about. Simply deleted the entire wallet and info, and I distinctly recall having over 100. But I suppose the time freed up from all that mindless maintenance makes up for it.

Thanks for recommending blockfolio, some of you. Certainly going to check it out. I might consider adding considerably to my trading activity this year, seems like the last few years if not the final year we can take advantage of mooning coins.

I am using an app called blockfolio. Its very convenient, easy to track and has an alert when want to buy or sell some coins. There are also features that can help you like graphs, buy and sell volume and news.

Some of the hodlers are using Blockfolio you can download it in playstore,but sometimes the prices of the token are not accurate so i prefer to check in coinmarketcap then use calculator.If you are just holding erc20 you can just also check it in http://deltabalances.github.io/.

Thank you guys for your feedback!
Now, I'm interested to hear more about what kind of input in portfolio tracking apps do you prefer - connecting your exchange accounts or filling out the form for every coin by hand? The reason why I'm asking is because I'm planning to develop my own app, so I want to now what users actually want. I also plan to implement charts for net worth and some local currencies. Also, feel free to suggest any other features you might want to see.

Keeping tabs on altcoins could be a difficult task if one does not know how to go about it. I have a list of all coins I have and the one I intend to buy in the future. There are a number of applications I use to track this coins . I used blockfolio, I etherscan if they are listed on etherdelta and I also used cryptofolio and coinmarketcap.  I used all this applications because no one application contain all the tokens and also for price comparison.

For tracking the estimated value of my coins i'm using blockfolio application in my android phone and for tracking the most pump and dump coins within the day i'm using coinmarketcap app. When i am using my laptop, i usually use cryptocompare.com for tracking some altcoins.

Regarding the #2, it will be very risky if you plan to connect your exchange to an app that allows them to collect data from your exchange. It better to use an application in your cellular phone which you track its price. Mostly, blockfolio is the popular app that many traders are using today rather than a desktop application which are usually uses a lot of date for a live update of your portfolio.

I'm using the phone on my phone. For me, the main parameters are important: the chart, the price change for the last day, the overall change in the portfolio price, and others.

I use blockfolio like everyone else but as you said it can be hard to manage and update your portfolio daily what i did instead was i separated coins for long term hold and added them in blockfolio for short term trading i updated my btc or alt balance every week.

I'm happy with all the features but i would surely protest the idea of connecting your exchange account to a portfolio tracker it is highly risky.

There is an excellent site 3commas.io There you can connect both exchange wallets, and any number of wallets from MEV. So far not all the coins are displayed, and some coins are displayed incorrectly, but the approximate price of your tokens can be seen.

I'm currently using blockfolio for tracking my portfolio. As for trackins the prices in the market, I'm using coinmarket cap app. That would be better if I could link my exchange accounts on my apps for a faster and more convenient transactions.

Since I've started investing in ICOs and cryptocurrencies in the market, I have used Blockfolio to keep track all of my assets. Alternatively, I have checked my Etherscan or Ethplorer regarding the new tokens arrived to my Ether wallet address.

However, in Blockfolio, there are some coins/tokens that were already in the market that are not yet available in their platform. However, there were some who are not yet available in the market, but already included in the Blockfolio platform.

Cryptofolio is a joke, they haven't been listing coins in there for more than a month, i prefer Delta.
Blockfolio and Cryptofolio. Both of them are just trackers for me and I dont rely on the price because sometimes price that they use is delayed. Not all coins/tokens are in Cryptofolio
Anyway, blockfolio and Delta are not following the prices at the same time, they are always in a little difference of 1 cent, or two cents at the same time.

1. What portfolio tracking tools do you use?
I'm currently using blockfolio and spreadsheet(it fetches price automatically every hour or so) to keep track of my portfolio.
if you're interested in tracking portfolio on a spreadsheet, try this(https://github.com/bradjasper/CryptocurrencySpreadsheetUtils).

2. What features do you want to see in apps? Do you want to connect them to your exchange accounts or also have an option to input your portfolio? Do you want to have a desktop version?
I'm pretty happy with my current app/script, spreadsheet works pretty good on desktop. Wink i however would like if i could import my holdings by just inputting addresses in spreadsheet.

Not all coins/tokens are in Cryptofolio and I dont think I see Binance in the list or I just didnt search thoroughly. And I have my spreadsheet ready to check the coins I am following. Just to see if its a good time to buy.

I used to use cryptofolio.info but deleted my portfolio because I was getting tired of it, the layout is pretty simple and straightforward but I got bored and now im trying alternatives.

I really hate having to wait for people to vote a coin for it to get listed, I would like to get any coin I want tracked without having to wait for the votes. I need to track all bitcoin forks instantly and not wait for them to get listed for example.

My favorite service is https://www.cryptocompare.com/portfolio/
I heard there are others, but I did not even try them. Simply cryptocompare for me so convenient that there is no need to compare with others.

I use DELTA app on my ios to track my portfolio and to monitor it. I think better its better than blockflio. Sometimes blockfolio loads too long.


2. What features do you want to see in apps? Do you want to connect them to your exchange accounts or also have an option to input your portfolio? Do you want to have a desktop version?

I already see an app that you can connect your exchange accounts into it. Its nae is TABTRADER you can link your exchchange acount into that and you can start trading on that app after you put your account.

Yeah ! I wish there is also a desktop version, think its cool.
