- You are wondering what the best tools in the market are and how can you trust people
The Journey
How do you come to the conclusion that you need a crypto portfolio tracking app? Here are a few realizations that you might feel familiar with:
- You have at least 2 wallets and 2 exchanges
- You have no clue how much money you have in your entire portfolio
- You are holding and trading more than 5 different cryptocurrencies
- You have received a bunch of airdrops
- You worry about the amount of taxes you need to pay but you have 0 clues about the tax laws in your country regarding cryptocurrency
We understand you quite well. That was us a few years back. So we did the research and we realized that this is the journey most of our users go through (ourselves included):
Research Portfolio Tracking Tools
DYOR. That’s something everyone will tell you in every crypto blog, Twitter account or sub-Reddit. There’s a lot of truth in that. So here are some quick tips for you to start your research process:
- Visit trustworthy crypto sites. Make sure that they have a decent UI/UX. Design is just a great filter to see if someone cares about their platform
- Go to different news sites. They will give you a perspective of the different features a tool might have. Take the information with a grain of salt as some of these “reviews” can be biased.
- Don’t get frustrated. You’ll quickly realize that you might end up a little bit more confused than before.
Compare Portfolio Tracking Tools
So currently you feel annoyed and confused and very skeptical about the information you’ve gathered thus far. You’ve come to the conclusion that you must take this matter under your own hands so you do your own analysis to compare the pros and cons of the current offering in the market. You focus on the following:
- Price & Market Information
- Personal Data Representation
- Information Input
- Alert
- UI/UX Design

Ask Friends and Family for References
You probably have that one cousin or friend who got into crypto early and it’s some sort of modern Nostradamus. She/he is the one who told you which coins you should buy in 2017, what the best wallet is and which exchange offered the best fees. She/he probably had you in his best interest.
However, it is still important to have several references. In crypto, whether it’s a token, wallet or exchange, everyone will have a say on things, but it’s up to you to make a conscious and thoughtful decision. Your portfolio tracking tool shouldn’t be any different. Who knows, maybe you’ll be the one now teaching your family and friends how to properly track their portfolio and get insights out of it.
Download the Apps and Test them Out
So you’ve come a long way already:
- You’ve done your research
- You’ve compared the different tools
- You’ve asked your family and friends
