If you are still using spreadsheets or something like Blockfolio to track your crypto assets, this post is for you.

For the longest time, that was me. I was trading cryptocurrencies and lost my mind trying to keep track of what the heck was going on. How much fiat have I invested in this? What is my cost basis? How am I going to do my taxes? If I have to manually enter one more trade I’m going to lose it.

How was there not a better, free way to keep track of my crypto assets? I couldn’t take it anymore so I started working on CoinTracker. It started with the goal of making it easy to track your crypto assets, and has grown from there.

Unified Dashboard
For starters, we make a very simple user experience. No confusing frills — just the high-level information you need at a glance:

Performance Metrics
Of course power users can also drill down into their metrics when they want to:

Cost Basis
And we show you how each trade is performing, what the realized capital gain/loss is:

Capital gains calculated per trade; transfers automatically detected

Auto-syncing
Perhaps best of all, this is all powered by a secure framework of view-only access to your various wallets and exchanges so that you never have to enter another transaction again:

13 of the top exchanges are already supported on CoinTracker

Pricing
And underlying all of this is all the good old cryptocurrency information that you expect from any tracker:

Follow the top 100 cryptocurrencies at all times

And it’s all free (we plan to monetize with some premium subscription features down the road, but the tracking functionality remains free). At the end of the day, I just want folks to be able to easily manage their funds. So stop settling for anything less than the gold standard in tracking! Looking forward to your thoughts, suggestions, and criticisms at feedback@cointracker.io.
