This year, I decided to actually get serious about my finances. Not just holding Bitcoin, but the whole picture. Budgeting, tracking, knowing where I stood. I started using Rocket Money. It was solid for what it did, pulling in bank accounts and cards and showing me where my money was going.
But my Bitcoin wasn't in it. There was no way to add it. So every time I pulled up my dashboard, the asset I cared about most just wasn't there. And after a while, out of sight really does mean out of mind. I started paying less attention to it.
The other thing I noticed was that looking at everything in dollars was making me numb. A dollar figure just stops registering after a while. But when I started thinking about my stack in sats and pricing my everyday life in sats, something clicked. That coffee isn't $5, it's 500 sats. That car payment isn't $600, it's 60,000 sats. I started actually feeling the cost of things again and caring more about what I was keeping.
I wanted an app that gave me that perspective every day and put my Bitcoin in the same view as the rest of my life. Nothing existed that felt right so I built it.
Compass shows your balance in Bitcoin and your local currency side by side. You can connect your wallet with an xpub key for automatic syncing, or if you're not there yet, just enter your balance manually and update it when you want. Either way works. Nothing is custodied, nothing can be moved. It's been changing my psychology the way that I view money now and I feel less like a mindless consumer. I've been stacking more sats because of it. I would love you guys to try it out and give me thoughts.
The main goals are the following:
- See daily spending in Bitcoin
- Have accurate syncing of net worth with Bitcoin and other assets
- Secure, non KYC
