To clarify, does this automatically fetch updated crypto/stock/etc prices so that I can see my exposure changing over time, or do I have to manually update the amount of money in each holding?

#12Earlier quoted context omitted.
All the info is stored either on the device itself or synced via Blockstack if you wish to do so. The project is also entirely open-source - https://github.com/lannister-capital
I understand your intention, but you have a bit of an uphill battle. Users have to trust you on many levels: 1) The app running on your phone is powered by the software on github. 2) This will not change. The only way I would use an app like this would be if it were offered by a financial institution that holds my assets. If your app caused me to lose money, I would be SOL. If their's did, they would be required to a…

As far as I could see there is no way to add certain stocks/crypto/funds etc. basically just a slightly better spreadsheet, you have to enter all by yourself. That’s a pitty, I would like to have one where I just enter which stock I bought and when and it shows me the win/loss over time.

#16I am not wild about that name. The Lannisters are the bad guys throughout the run of the GoT story and by later seasons it is revealed that their wealth has mostly wasted away. They are only able to keep up appearances of wealth through taking on large amounts of debt and by looting their enemies. Yes, the single primary characteristic you would assign to the Lannisters is wealth. I am just not sure that is worth associating your product with all their secondary traits like deceit, fraud, selfishness, and ruthlessness.

#20The app is closed-source; everything is locally stored.
It allows me to track my bank accounts, including portfolios, etc. from most German and Dutch banks, credit cards, etc..
Additionally it can track BTC, ETH wallets, connect to Coinbase and a few other exchanges and membership programs.
I would never use a wealth management app requiring manual entry. That`s just slightly better than a spreadsheet. Keep up the work!
Caveat: Only supported in Germany and the Netherlands at the moment (IIRK).
Edit: A similar offering I just remembered: https://www.numbrs.com/en_uk/. Might be some good inspiration as well.
