Blockfolio Review: Manage & Track your Crypto Portfolio

In this Blockfolio review, I’ll explain how to use Blockfolio the most popular cryptocurrency tracking app. Since their acquisition from FTX in 2020, they have expanded the range of features available on their app. I will explain how you can buy and sell cryptocurrencies, stocks, and now NFTs. This is in addition to Blockfolio’s well-known features for managing and tracking your crypto portfolio.

What is Blockfolio?

Blockfolio which launched in 2014, is a well-known place where over 6 million people currently track their cryptocurrency portfolios. This is all done via a mobile app which is available from the App Store or Google Play.

Users can track the price of various cryptos and the performance of their holdings whilst getting the latest news and team updates.

Since its acquisition by FTX, Blockfolio has also added trading to its app. Where you can trade crypto, tokenized stocks, NFTs and FIAT currencies. Not only that, but you’ll earn a  free coin for every trade over $10.

FTX Acquires Blockfolio

In August 2020, Blockfolio announced that they were joining forces with FTX as part of a $150 million deal. At the time they also hinted at launching a retail trading experience, powered by FTX. True to their word, in January 2021, Blockfolio released an update to include “Trading” giving users the ability to trade crypto and stocks at zero fees.

FTX launched in 2019 and is a Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency derivatives exchange which they state was built by traders, for traders. FTX users can trade in a wide variety of markets which include spot, futures, stocks, leveraged tokens, volatility, prediction and FIAT.

How to Sync Exchanges with Blockfolio

Tokens can be manually entered into Blockfolio to be added to your portfolio for tracking. However, you can also set this to sync automatically with an exchange such as Binance, or Kraken.

To connect, you’ll need the API keys from the exchange that you want to connect. With each exchange, the process will be slightly different and there will be different options you’ll need to select to ensure your synchronisation is successful. So, it’s worth checking out the FTX “How-to-guides” for each exchange.

How to Sync Binance Exchange to Blockfolio

  • Within Binance, under your “Profile”, choose “API Management”
  • From here you can “Create New Key” where you’ll be provided with API Key, Secret Phrase and associated QR code.
  • You’ll need to make sure that the options at the bottom of the screen are ONLY set to read-only permission. If you select anything other than this, the synchronisation will fail.
  • Copy and Paste the API Keys (or QR code) from Binance into Blockfolio.
  • Allow for 10+ minutes for the connection to establish.

  1. Hi!
    I love your videos, very helpful and engaging. I recently downloaded the blockfolio app to track my crypto without spreadsheets using your link, but the referral didn’t work. Do you have a code I can manually input?
    Keep up the great work!
