Read-only tracking

Cardano portfolio tracker

Chain Glance tracks Cardano from a stake address or an account public key, resolving every payment address that account derives, so one entry covers a wallet instead of one address at a time.

What Chain Glance reads on Cardano

ADA balances and transaction history. Accepts a stake address or an account public key, which resolves every address the account derives.

ADA balances

Your ADA balance across every payment address the account controls, valued in your display currency.

Native tokens

Multi-asset native tokens held on those addresses, listed by quantity and symbol.

Transaction history

Sends, receives and the counterparty on each transaction, back through the account history.

Fees

Transaction fees attributed to your wallet when it was the side that spent the inputs.

ADA is valued in your display currency. Native tokens on Cardano are listed by quantity and symbol without a value, because reliable price coverage for them is thin. We would rather show no number than a wrong one.

What can you paste in?

Any of these identifies your holdings on Cardano. The first covers the most in one go.

1

Account public key

A 128-character hex key, the watch-only equivalent of a Bitcoin xpub. Chain Glance derives the stake address from it and then resolves the whole wallet.

2

Stake address

A stake1… address covers the whole wallet. Chain Glance resolves every payment address registered to it and treats them as one holding.

3

Single payment address

An addr1… address works on its own if you only want to watch that one address rather than a whole account.

Why Cardano needs its own handling

Cardano wallets do not have one address. A single wallet spreads across many payment addresses, and a new one can appear whenever you receive funds. Paste one addr1… into most trackers and you see a fraction of what you hold, with no indication that the rest exists.

Chain Glance takes the account instead. Give it a stake address, or the account public key your wallet exports for watch-only use, and it resolves the payment addresses that account controls and reports them as one wallet. This is the same idea as an extended public key on Bitcoin, and no other chain Chain Glance supports works this way.

Cardano also uses an extended UTXO model rather than account balances, so a transaction consumes and creates outputs rather than debiting a number. Fees are attributed to you only when your wallet spent the inputs, which keeps a received payment from looking like it cost you something.

Cardano questions

What is an account public key, and where do I get it?
It is a 128-character hex key your wallet can export for watch-only use. It lets software see the addresses an account derives without being able to spend from them. Wallets differ in what they call it, and some do not expose it at all, in which case use your stake address.
Can Chain Glance spend my ADA?
No. A stake address and an account public key are both watch-only. Neither can authorise a transaction, and Chain Glance never asks for a seed phrase or a signing key.
Why do my Cardano native tokens show no value?
Price coverage for Cardano native tokens is thin, so they are listed by quantity and symbol rather than given a value that would probably be wrong. ADA itself is valued normally.
Do I need to add each Cardano address separately?
Not if you add the stake address or the account public key. Either one resolves the payment addresses the account controls. Adding a single addr1… address tracks only that address, which is occasionally what you want.
Does Cardano appear alongside my other chains?
Yes. It sits in the same portfolio as your EVM addresses, Bitcoin and Solana, and moving ADA between accounts you own is matched as a transfer. How transfer matching works
