AssetDash calls itself an operating system, but it basically serves as an asset portfolio tracking platform. Unlike other asset trackers that require your personal information, AssetDash was designed by privacy-focused traders, investors and cybersecurity professionals who made the platform accessible to traders and investors anonymously by default. As a result, the AssetDash sign-up process is unusually quick and easy, requiring only a valid email address and a password to get started using the platform. You can get set up quickly, review your investment performance, pull multiple investment portfolios together and keep an eye on the big picture.

You can get access to the software via AssetDash’s web-based platform, or you can download the mobile app and begin using it immediately on your chosen device without giving away your personal information, unlike most other crypto portfolio trackers and financial tracking software. Keep in mind that you will still need to enter your financial account information to link them and start importing information to the portfolio tracker software. 


AssetDash caters primarily to investors who invest in multiple-assets; NFT and cryptocurrency traders; and investors who would otherwise need to use several tracking apps to keep tabs on their positions. AssetDash also allows investors to track their stocks, mutual funds and bank balances. It is especially helpful for traders and investors who have crypto assets stored on multiple networks and blockchains, as well as investments in NFTs.

AssetDash supports hundreds of apps covering various different financial markets. You can link your crypto exchange addresses, track NFTs and decentralized financial (DeFi) assets and link your stock brokerage and bank accounts.

One of the most valuable advantages of the AssetDash platform is its NFT portfolio tracker, which supports the highest number of NFTs across multiple blockchains and has earned a top ranking among asset tracker apps. AssetDash tracks NEAR protocol, Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) NFTs, which could otherwise require several portfolio trackers to monitor. AssetDash has the broadest NFT support on the mobile market.  

While some people consider decentralization a big selling point for cryptocurrencies, this characteristic often makes for a more complicated digital asset tracking process, which could in turn discourage new retail crypto investors and traders from getting involved in those markets.

AssetDash helps you easily get past this problem by allowing you to monitor all your crypto investments in real time. You can use AssetDash to track crypto assets on over 100 of the most prestigious custodial digital asset platforms including the popular Binance, Robinhood, Coinbase, FTX platforms and many other brokerage accounts, giving you access to real-time data.

AssetDash Customer Service

AssetDash’s web interface and mobile app have a customer service area in the Settings menu. After opening the menu, you fill in a form where you can leave a message. The customer service department responds via email, normally in less than an hour.

AssetDash does not act as a broker executing transactions, and it provides a valuable service to investors and traders free of charge. As a result, its message-only customer service method will probably not make a significant difference to its overall utility for most users.   

You can also reach AssetDash via its social media links on Twitter, TikTok and Instagram. In addition, the platform has a YouTube channel linked here

AssetDash Mobile App

AssetDash’s mobile app is available for iOS and Android-based smartphones and tablets, and it seems very intuitive and easy to use. Once you download the app, you can enter all your crypto addresses and link your brokerage, bank and other financial accounts to the AssetDash dashboard via the platform’s Settings menu.

The process of downloading the app and inputting your financial account information takes only a few minutes in most cases, although the amount of time it takes to link all your accounts and assets will depend on how many you wish to monitor. 

This easy setup process lets you quickly begin tracking your investments and net worth in real time. The onboarding process does not require the customary Know Your Customer (KYC) protocol, and users are only required to provide a valid email address to access the platform’s features.    

AssetDash Security

AssetDash protects your privacy and personal information on its platform by designing it to be used anonymously by default since the platform does not provide brokerage or execution services in any market.

You can use AssetDash securely via a web browser or the mobile app with just an email address and password, although keep in mind that you will be providing personal information if you decide to link any financial accounts. 

AssetDash Pricing & Fees

One of the best features of AssetDash is that it’s free of charge, so that justifies the unusually high rating for customer pricing given in this review. Since you do not have to provide any payment information to use AssetDash, that feature substantially improves your level of anonymity when using the software.

Other cryptocurrency trackers can cost you a pretty penny, from $179 to $399 per year for most trackers. For example, TokenTax, which supports all crypto exchanges, NFTs and DeFi can set you back $799 per year for the Pro Plan, and as much as $3,500 per year for the Gold Plan.   

AssetDash User Benefits

The most obvious user benefit of AssetDash is the ability to centralize your digital and non-digital assets on one platform. By consolidating the tracking of your crypto assets, the platform also considerably facilitates its management and real-time valuation. 

This feature notably reduces the complexity of crypto trading by aggregating your digital investments into a single platform. Such a useful feature will probably result in this platform attracting more people to get involved in the digital asset market.

While no educational resources can be found on the platform outside of the tutorials on specific items on the platform, AssetDash periodically hosts podcasts on its YouTube and Spotify channels. In addition, you can access crypto and other financial information via the platform’s blog. AssetDash can’t tell you to buy certain growth stocks, but its powerful tools centralize your finances, pulling back the curtain on financial issues that might have plagued you for many years in the past.

AssetDash User Experience

The AssetDash app is easy to use even for new and inexperienced traders and investors. To use it, you first input your assets via the “Link assets” submenu on the platform’s Settings page. Once you’ve linked your holdings, you’ll then see convenient buttons for the platform’s Dashboard, Markets, Discover and Settings pages at the bottom of the app’s display. 

The app’s Dashboard page shows you your net worth right at the top in real time. You can also view your investment returns in real time and for future time horizons of one day, one week, one month, three months and one year from the present day. 

Immediately below that, you will see displayed the value of your biggest position and the change in the value of the top gainer among your investments. Further down the page, you can find the total value of your investments, as well as the amount of private equity you’ve allocated to your portfolio. 

The Markets page shows you highlights from the crypto, stock, NFT, meme and DeFi markets, as well as their current price and percentage change on the day. The menu at the top of the Markets page also includes a Watchlist that lets you add any assets you’re monitoring, as well as a news feed with highlights from Reuters, Benzinga and other top financial news providers. 

The Discover page lets you see what its users are buying and selling. You can elect to display the assets with the largest holder changes over one day, one week and 30-day time frames. You can also select a ranked list for all assets or for specific asset classes, including cryptos, stocks, equities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), derivatives, metals, mutual funds, currencies and NFTs. The page then displays what percentage of AssetDash users are holding an asset, the daily change in those holdings, the asset’s recent price and the daily change in its price. 

AssetDash vs. Competitors

Most portfolio tracking apps have a limited number of cryptocurrency exchanges and decentralized wallets and might have a monthly or yearly subscription cost. AssetDash mainly overshadows its competitors with respect to its NFT tracking capabilities and lack of a price tag. 

Competing portfolio trackers like Toro’s Delta platform can also track your cryptocurrency and other investments and may offer powerful features, like advanced charting, but only at a price. To help you decide, Benzinga has compiled a list of portfolio tracking platforms similar to AssetDash in the chart below that you can use to compare their features. 

AssetDash Overall

AssetDash gets a high rating of 4.5 stars for being available free of charge and for providing valuable NFT tracking services not available with most other crypto portfolio trackers. AssetDash’s website and mobile app also have accessible and easy-to-use interfaces that make the platform ideal for traders and investors of any experience level.

Also, the fact that AssetDash's platform lets you track all your investments on multiple blockchains and exchanges makes it an excellent free resource you can use to keep track of and value your asset portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

What is the most valuable asset in the world?

A

The world’s most valuable asset depends at least in part on how unique the item is and how you measure that value. Very unique assets like rare artwork and desirable real estate often have high individual assessed asset values in the millions or even billions of dollars. When it comes to fungible assets that can be readily exchanged with another identical item, then the world’s most valuable asset by far when determined using market capitalization as the measure of value is currently gold, followed distantly by the stocks of companies like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), Saudi Arabian Oil Co. (SARSE: 2222.SR), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN). Digital cryptocurrency assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) presently rank 16th and 86th respectively in terms of their market cap compared to other fungible assets. 

Q

How do portfolio trackers work?

A

Portfolio tracker software typically helps you keep abreast of your investment accounts and assets and lets you assess how well your portfolio performs compared to the general market. You might use a mobile app, a website or a spreadsheet you’ve made to track the status of your investment holdings, although painstakingly entering your asset positions into a spreadsheet might not be the best use of your time. A decent readymade portfolio tracker service like AssetDash, for example, will let you enter, view and manage asset holdings, check your current asset allocation and estimate how well your portfolio will help you achieve your long-term investment goals.
