What is Blockfolio
I have done a review of Blockfolio long ago here if you are not familiar its an app which allows you to track prices of chosen coins and has almost all altcoins you can imagine.
But it also has another neat option - you can add there amounts of coisn you have, price you bought at and it will constantly show you how much your whole coin portfolio is worth, you can check stats of all coins you have and more.
The app looks and works amazing. No doubt in this.
Blockfolio Tracks All Your Moves and Coins
While i knew this app is great i have only used it to track prices, i have never put there single info about my orders or amouns of what i own. Due to years online and 7th year in cryptocurrency (omg.. im so old) ive expected abuse to happen.
I hate tracking of any kind and imagine here you give full info on your net worth to randoms.
Due to todays findin it gets even better - they have over 100 000 downloads and can fully track move of everyone to not only track people but track and predict moves on markets.
The Finds
Website BitcoinErrorLog went by code and all homecalls in the app and found some sneaky things there.
But as i said - its nothing surprising. Possibly after this went public app owners will stop this or mangle it more..
Either way its never good to use such 3rd party apps that track you and trusting them with your money.
How to Stay Safe in Crypto World
- Obviously - if you dont have key to your coins, they are not yours. Never trust exchanges or webwallets.
- In Bitcoin a like coins - often change wallets, use new addresses for deposits.
- Have backups of your keys for coins also outside home.
- Use VPN and change IPs on it often, i currently use Traceless.
- Never share your keys with anyone on internet.
- Add 2FA on exchanges, if they dont have this option.. Dont even use them.
This are the basics to get you started.

The data provided to them is completely unreliable, anyone could enter $100m in some random coin and completely skew the data. The data is also after trades have been completed, this sort of data would be fairly hard to game.

I agree. I wouldn't necessarily let it worry me. But to be cautious, don't input all details on your blockfolio app. For example, I don't change what exchange I use to what's on my blockfolio that way there is less tracking, in a sense.

Are you saying that the data wouldn't be stored in a database on a centralized server anyway? B/c, if so, API calls don't mean anything. You'd be far better to data mine with SQL queries than send some kind of API call from the app itself.

I would defiantly stay clear from Blockfolio. Burpsuite is a tool used for commonly used for web application penetration testing/hacking activities. A massive red flag
What alternative would you recommended for portfolio management? https://www.cryptocompare.com has a nice one but its not encrypted :(
I would also recommend using a unique password for everything markets, wallets, est. This can all be managed securely with password managers. Also think about running AV scans and auditing the machine you use. Cant be using a insecure machine :P

Surely by using Google Sheets, you are making your financial data available to Google and possibly others? As the sheet is linked to your Google account, then you are personally identifiable, whereas with Blockfolio you are not. Seems a strange choice if you are worried about privacy.

Perhaps, but I trust Google with that more than some shady app developers. If i log into an exchange using Chrome I'm trusting them with that too, having a few numbers on a sheet isn't the greatest of my concern.

That's the problem i have with most exchanges. There is no wallet for all these coins. Most popular wallets like Exodus or hardware one's like Trezor only allow you to store 5-6 of the most popular coins. So when you want to buy coins that are not included in these wallets you are forced to hold them on exchanges. That's when problems can happen. Myself had a few issues with some exchange, Poloniex not to name it. When it's time to withdraw those alt-coins you ran into problems. I don't know if you ever had to deal with customer service on a site like poloniex but let me tell you, you don't want to have to deal with them. Just go on Reddit and looks for Poloniex and you'll see the true picture. Anyway the point is, keep your coins safe. It's like silver, if you don't hold it, you don't have it.
