How Often Do You Check Your Bitcoin Wallet Balance?

I've got Sentinel installed on my android phone. I loaded all my xpubs (eletrum,ledger HW.1, old adresses, vanity adresses,...) and i open this application at least a dozen times each day.

I don't check my wallet often,
Normally I login to my wallet when there is a transaction, I mean when I receive any payment....
E-mail notification is a good thing, which helps me not to login much often to check payment came or not...

I also do this, I think that check it often is not necessary to be honest because the amount stays the same right.
I only are in my wallet when I spend something or I add bitcoins to it.

i check my cold wallets maybe one or two times per month. i have a round number of coins in my wallet so it is easy for me to know the total value.

Not really often but I think around 3times a day because sometime I was worried of my balance especially when there is someone sharing on this forum about hacked/stolen btc.

I can not count how often I look for the wallet. Because I trade, I had to check the market price and that I also opened the wallet. thank you

I try to not check it too much because I become addicted to it, it's like constantly checking your WhatsApp on the smartphone, it's just a stupid act that is a very repetitive pattern that takes away time to be productive. So I know how much BTC I own in my mind, I don't need to constantly double check if it's still there, when the point of Bitcoin is, it's the safest way to store wealth ever. I still check bitcoinwisdom way too much tho.

It's rare for me to check it, maybe 1-2 times a week, I have the Blockchain.info text messaging service to alert me of incoming payments.

I only check my wallet only whenever I receive payment to my address, just to confirm that I'd receive it or not and I'll frequently check until I got a confirmation.

I voted other, because I don't really care what's in it because I know it's safely hidden in my encrypted paper wallet. I do check the price often, but the balance I don't. I'm concerned on the daily price movements. Idk why but it has been my routine to check it once or twice daily.

Usually once a day, but I don not kind if I miss to check it few days. I mostly check it more often if I know a transaction is coming in.

How Often Do You Check Your Bitcoin Wallet Balance?

Me i always check it hourly because sometimes my friends that loaned at me they pay so im always checking so that i know if my friend pay me or not. And sometimes i check it because my investment in many hyip are hourly paying so i need to check my balance if they are paying.

Only to check when I'm receiving and spending. Is there any other reason to do it? I guess some people like to gloat over their riches. I don't got any.

I do it once a day, and I also have honey traps { Bitcoin addresses with small amounts, I stored on my computer... to trip hackers and to alert me, if someone has accessed my pc. } You never know,

who is looking over your shoulder. I use my Trezor {hardware wallet} for online purchases and I keep small amunts on exchanges to trade. I check my paper wallets, once a week... just to see if it

is still there.. {always paranoid} Best practice - Do it at least 3 times a week.   Roll Eyes

why check ?

use a separate computer ... with no strangers on it.

and a hot wallet in the phone.  Grin (like physical wallet in your pocket)
