Rotki

Rotki deals with the privacy concerns of cryptocurrency portfolio tracking, where centralized services gather detailed financial information like holdings, trading patterns, and wallet addresses. This data could be valuable to hackers, sold to data brokers, or exposed due to security breaches. By processing data locally and never transmitting portfolio information to external servers, Rotki offers the analytics capabilities users need, all while upholding the privacy principles that initially attracted many to cryptocurrency.

Common Use Cases

Crypto investors can track their portfolios, which are spread across various exchanges and wallets, all within a single, unified dashboard. Here, they can view total holdings, performance over time, and asset allocation without having to manually check each platform. Tax reporting becomes much easier as Rotki generates detailed reports of trades, income, and taxable events, formatted specifically for accountants or for import into tax software. DeFi users can monitor their positions across lending protocols, liquidity pools, and staking services, with automatic detection of yields, rewards, and impermanent loss. Traders can analyze historical performance, identify profitable strategies, and calculate actual returns, including fees and slippage, which exchange interfaces often tend to obscure.

Why deploy Rotki on Hostinger VPS

Running Rotki on a Hostinger VPS combines the privacy advantages of self-hosting with the convenience of browser-based access from any device. Unlike running Rotki on a personal computer, which is only available when powered on and connected, VPS deployment offers always-available access to portfolio tracking without exposing your home network.

The isolated environment protects sensitive API keys and wallet tracking data on infrastructure you control rather than trusting cloud-based portfolio services. For users with significant crypto holdings, the security of self-hosted tracking justifies the modest VPS cost compared to the risk of exposing financial data to third parties.

The persistent storage ensures portfolio history and imported data survive across sessions without local backup concerns. VPS hosting also enables secure access from mobile devices while traveling, allowing portfolio monitoring from anywhere without storing sensitive financial data on phones that could be lost or compromised.
