Hello,
i want to do bookkeeping / accounting for my bitcoin transactions.
I would like to know what people are doing for calculating how much they spend in their fiat currency for bitcoin, etc.

Right now i am buying bitcoin from bitcoinlocal, and after every transaction, finding out how much $1 in my currency equals to how much bitcoin i just got.
Then when i purchase goods online, i can use that as a reference to figure out how much fiat currency i spent.
But im sure there is a better way? Any programs / wallets / spreadsheets available that do this calculating automatically for you??
All transactions are in the blockchain. Most bitcoin wallets have a transaction log.



These walles have an option to show how much these transactions are worth in $.  You can export them into excel or some small database file which you can easily convert into an excel file.

It's a good idea to show how much they are worth in $, but remember that it may change over time. It's like keeping tracking of your transactions in pounds and saving its value in dollars, over time that may have very different outcomes so I'd only use this as a reference of the spending at the time because the value doesn't remain the same.

You dont need to do manual keeping of records of your transaction since there is a transaction history on every wallet online now so you can look over your previous transctions so no need to audit it manually

I use a small tool "sentinel" installed on my android phone. I imported all my xpub's from my HD wallets and all of my commonly-used other addresses.
The tool keeps track of all incoming/outgoing transactions, and calculates the total worth of my bitcoin holdings whenever i want based on the current localbitcoins price (IIRC, to lazy to pick up my phone right now  Grin).

It's not the complete answer to your question, merely a step in the "right" direction.
And that is working for smoothly in android? seems like a good way for me to try that.
Wow I never knew that you could do that. I am gonna start tonight. Hopefully it works as well as your's did. Thanks for the tips.

If you want to see all your transactions, you can just search up you Bitcoin address on Blockchain and that will show all the transactions from your account. Bitcoin received and given.

Try to use single bitcoin address to receive and send from so that you can use any explorer like blockchain.info to check total sent and total recevied bitcoin and you can also view those bitcoin in fiat converted on the current market price.

Altough this is a good idear for some people, it does reduce the privacy of the enduser. If you don't mind being tracked, it's the perfect sollution tough.

view transaction history Chain-block is the public records of all Bitcoin transactions, in chronological order, are shared between all users of Bitcoin, Bitcoin transactions recorded database used to verify permanent Bitcoin transactions and to prevent double-spending,can be audited by searching the entire recording transactions.
That's right but the another way can using block trail for showing all of your transaction and histories.

you don't need to do that because bitcoin already does this for you you just need to see the total transactions that have been carried out.
