Simple crypto portfolio tracker website

[guns_cryptorollcall]

I've created this website which is a crypto currency tracker and portfolio manager.
http://www.cryptorollcall.com

With so many altcoins, and assets across so many exchanges, this is a 1 stop site, where you can get an instant view of what your portfolio is worth, and how its doing.
There's no signup, so no data is collected from the user.
It has definitely been useful for me and my friends, and would love to hear some feedback from all of you.

well, it's what I really need.
it uses cookies to store my "coins" right?
any chance to have the ssl on this project?

[guns_cryptorollcall]

Hi Pablito
It uses localStorage, which provides a bit more storage than cookies.
I have been looking into setting up SSL, and just reading up on how to do it.
I should probably get it done by the end of this month, or early Feb.

There are a lot of portfolio tracker and yet you decided to create one also. Say how does yours differ from others? Surely there are a lot of portfolio trackers out there that offers a lot more features than yours and far more convenient.

P.S. I didn't bother to check it. You see, I don't really expect anything new when I do.

Hi SoulBargain

I decided to create one for the following reasons :
1. I didn't want to sign up and provide my email address to any site/app. ( although now there are many that do exist)
2. I wanted simpler visualizations on the coins i held.
3. I wanted a simpler user interface. Most trackers I had seen felt complex, and probably catered to traders or people already familiar with such interfaces.

I felt I addressed my concerns, when i developed the website.
Of course, I also learnt a ton of things about coding/deployment in general, which is always a plus for me.

Completely agree with you, there are a lot of trackers out there which are bigger and better than my website, but there are hardly any ideas that are "new" these days. Someone, somewhere has already implemented what we think is a novel idea.

Thank you for your reply, it definitely tells me that in order to be noticed, I need to differentiate myself from the crowd.

Thank you for your reply, it definitely tells me that in order to be noticed, I need to differentiate myself from the crowd.

Glad you get my point. Do you have any plans to have a mobile app too? Also, can you please specify it further? And what are these "new" ideas that you're planning to implement?

All those 3 reasons you had shared, the app that I've been using contains all of it. And the market users are both those who are newbies or just want to keep track of all their holdings and those who are into their trading career.

I don't mean to discourage you. Think of this as a help.

[guns_cryptorollcall]

Yes, I am planning to do that, although the progress on that is slow, since I am learning android/swift development.

The features on my roadmap are
-supporting optional user signup, since right now the portfolio is tightly coupled with the device/browser
-supporting multiple profiles/portfolios
-supporting translation into different global currencies like EUR, AUD etc.
-curated content from twitter/news regarding the coins the user is interested in
-notifications for price changes
-automatic sync with the exchanges

Thanks for the honest feedback. Those are the features I had been thinking about, but I'll invest some time into thinking what I can do to truly differentiate my product.

Hi,
Thankyou. i was looking for something like this. Lite and fast.

One of my major concern about all these portfolio apps are security risk.

Maybe right now it doesn't seem as much, but in near future if the database is hacked of certain app where you need to register with some details, that could posses a security risk for a person irl.

I dont think every person is a computer savvy that they would try to hide/mask their identity in everything. Its almost too easy to link and find people.

Looking forward to this what you are making.

P.S. if you need any graphics like UI elements, just PM me and i might be able to help.

[guns_cryptorollcall]

Hi aizzaku

Thank you for the feedback!
You are right, if the db is compromised, then it's a big loss.

At the moment, I am working on supporting multiple portfolios, which would involve setting up a DB.
I'll probably have a security review, once I am close to finishing.

Thank you so much for the offer to help with the UI elements, I'll definitely reach out to you.

Hey aizzaku
It seems I can't PM you, since I am a newbie and I don't have enough points. :-(

[BilalHIMITE]

I like the website!
I would definitely use it.

Since I'm a web dev, I can help you with the design. If you're interested PM me.

[guns_cryptorollcall]
