Performance
How your money actually did — value, profit and loss, time-weighted return, your result against ETH and BTC, what would have happened if you had bought only ETH or BTC, gains by day, week or month, money in and out, and which coins drove the result.
Performance answers the question every holder asks and few tools answer properly: how did my money actually do?
It rebuilds what your wallets held on every single day, values it at that day's prices, and separates the money you put in from what that money earned. Adding $10,000 to a wallet makes its value jump, but it is not a gain — Performance does not count it as one.
Period
1W, 1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y or ALL, at the top right. Every figure and chart on the page follows the period.
The five figures
| Figure | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Value now | What the holdings measured here are worth today, and how much that value changed since the start of the period — including money you added or took out |
| Profit / loss | What you actually earned or lost: the change in value, minus the money you put in, plus the money you took out. The percentage is measured on the value at the start plus what you added |
| Time-weighted return | Your return with the timing of deposits and withdrawals removed. This is the figure to compare with anything else |
| vs ETH | Your time-weighted return minus Ether's return over the same days, in percentage points |
| vs BTC | The same against Bitcoin |
Why the time-weighted return matters. If you add a lot of money just before a fall, your profit in dollars looks worse than your decisions were; add it just before a rise and it looks better. The time-weighted return removes that effect and measures only how your holdings performed. It is the standard way funds report their results, and the only fair way to compare yourself with ETH or BTC.
vs ETH and vs BTC tell you whether your choices beat simply holding one of the two largest coins. A positive number means you did better; a negative one means holding ETH or BTC would have done more for you.
The main chart
Four views, with the buttons above the chart:
Value — what your wallets were worth each day. The dotted line is the money you put in, net of what you took out. When the value line is above the dotted line you are in profit; below it, at a loss.
Profit & loss — what you have earned or lost since the start of the period, with deposits and withdrawals taken out. Green above zero, red below.
vs ETH & BTC — your return, Ether's and Bitcoin's, all starting from 0% on the first day. Deposits and withdrawals do not move your line, so the three can be compared directly.
What if — the same money, added and withdrawn on the same days, as if it had all gone into ETH, or all into BTC. It shows what your portfolio would be worth today if you had kept it simple.
Move the cursor over the chart to read every line on any day. In the Value view it also shows your profit on that day.
Notes about the data
If something affects the figures, it is said under the chart. The most important notes are always visible; the rest are behind a notes about this data button. They cover things such as:
- The share of your portfolio that is measured, when some holdings are on networks whose history is not available
- Networks whose history is still being read for the first time
- Coins with no price history, which are left out
- Bridge transfers between networks, which are not counted as money in or out
- Missing older history, which makes the earliest values approximate
Gains and losses by period
A bar chart of what you earned or lost in each Day, Week or Month, with money in and out taken out. Switch between $ and % — the percentage is measured against the value at the start of each bar.
Under the chart: how many of those periods were in profit, and the best and worst one.
How to use it: a year that ended up 30% can be one great month and eleven flat ones, or steady gains all year. This chart tells you which.
Money in and out
Where your result came from, as a sum that adds up:
| Row | What it is |
|---|---|
| Value at the start | What the wallets were worth on the first day of the period |
| Money you put in | Transfers from people, exchanges or your other wallets, plus any native coin received |
| Money you took out | Coins sent away without anything coming back in the same transaction |
| Received for free | Airdrops and rewards sent to you by a contract. They count as gains, not as money you put in |
| Fees paid | The network fees you paid on your transactions |
| Profit / loss | What your money earned |
| Value now | What it is worth today |
Value now = value at the start + money in − money out + profit or loss.
Swaps, bridges and transfers between your own wallets are neither money in nor money out: the money stays yours, only its form or place changes.
What moved your result
Every coin's contribution to your profit or loss in the period, in two columns:
- Drove it up — the coins that gained you money
- Held it back — the coins that cost you money
Each shows its value at the start and at the end of the period, and its profit or loss with deposits and withdrawals into that coin taken out. Click a coin to open it.
How to use it: this is where you find out which decisions actually worked. A coin you think of as a winner may have made less than you remember; a small position may have cost more than it looked.
When there is nothing to show
- "There's no history to measure for this selection yet" — the wallet is new, or its history is still being read
- "Not enough points to draw this period" — choose a longer period
Performance measures the wallets in My portfolio or the one you choose in the selector. See Overview.
