What are you using to track your BTC balance over different services?

[ripper234]

When your assets are distributed among different services, tracking it all becomes an issue.

Posted the question to Quora, copy-pasted here for convenience:

Is there a good solution for tracking your balance across multiple wallets/services?

E.g. it should cover multiple different wallets (blockchain.info, offline wallet, std client), exchanges (Mt. Gox), various investments on GLBSE, interest-bearing bonds...

Naturally, the solution is not expected to integrate with these services, but rather to provide the user with the correct framework to manage his balances. It should support at least BTC & USD balances.

I'm currently using a Google Doc for this, but it's a bit lame and error prone, so I'm looking for something more dedicated.

I'm using a excel spreadsheet, but it's equally lame and prone to error :/

[Akka]

I used Excel too, but thanks to Glbse and the hundreds of stocks this isn't manually hand-able anymore. Looking for a different solution, too.

Sounds like this would be a useful feature for grandma's Open Transactions client to include, though maybe filed under "advanced features" in the menu...

I trust all these services. And visit them once a week to refresh total balance in my mind.

Non-Grouver-Sockpuppet here, I use btcbalance.net as well.

If you have all the addresses, you can use the iOS app I wrote to keep track:

I use this for android:

For Windows, you can check my new Deep Space Vagabond - it supports drag and drop of multi-address files for quick balance checking (check the forum thread for the exact file format).

Note that it is still in beta but has proven extremely stable so far.

blockchain.info watch only addresses with labels

[philipmicklon]

Just spent 2 minutes and wrote up some simple code I can run from localhost to keep track of my addresses.

Anyone want to take this code and add some TLC to make a nice open-source script for everyone? Maybe we should throw it on github...

Code:

<?php
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US');
$bal_total=0; $bal_total_usd=0;

$json = file_get_contents('https://coinbase.com/api/v1/prices/buy');
$obj = json_decode($json);
$price = $obj->amount;

function get_balance($address){
	$balance = file_get_contents('https://blockchain.info/q/addressbalance/'.$address) / 100000000;
	return $balance;
}

$addresses =
	[
	"1Ht9qJsZgcN7f8pkd1RdbHvHVm3EAXZauA",
	"1LzZttK9wgX2aoatudknVtPYTn51d46BrR"
	];

echo "<table>";

foreach ($addresses as $address){
	$add_bal = get_balance($address);
	$bal_usd = $add_bal*$price;
	$bal_total += $add_bal; 	$bal_total_usd += $bal_usd;
	
	echo "<tr><td>".$address."</td><td align=right width=200px>". money_format('%(#10n', $bal_usd)."</td><td width=150px align=right>".number_format($add_bal,3)."</td></tr>";
}
echo "<tr><td>Total:</td><td align=right>".money_format('%(#10n', $bal_total_usd)."</td><td align=right>$bal_total</td></tr>";
echo "</table>";

?>

http://www.mint.com now includes bitcoin balances but I am not sure how they are doing it. I used to use Mint.com to follow my fiat.

+1

I just add to watch only, Infact this is the only way I use blockchain.info these days.
I used to have to store hot coins there before I sold my iPhone.

They use the coinbase API.

+1 to "in my mind" place!
That's what I do!

I even memorized my private keys so whenever I need to spend BTC I import one spend and then delete!

Thanks for the php scrip. I will use it in feature.

I use Gnucash (not only but also for tracking Bitcoin wallets and balances).  It doesn't yet support Bitcoin, unfortunately (at least not the version in Debian Wheezy), but has a special currency XXX to mean "something else" which works ok for me.  Hopefully they will include Bitcoin at some point in the future (or one could trivially patch the code, but I've not yet come around to that).  For keeping track of BTC vs Fiat trades on exchanges, I've written some simple scripts to interpret CSV exports.
