If you hold crypto in more than one wallet, checking balances turns into a routine of opening apps, switching networks and scrolling. A lot of tools that promise to make it easier want you to connect your wallet or sign something. You don't need to do either just to see what you hold.
Public addresses are public for a reason
Every wallet has a public address. It's the one you share when someone sends you funds. Anyone can look it up on a block explorer and see the balance and transactions. That means a display can show your holdings using only that address, with no access to the wallet itself.
What you should never hand over
Your private key and your seed phrase are what actually control your funds. No price tracker, ticker or dashboard needs them to show a balance. If a tool asks for either one just to display your holdings, walk away.
How Crabby does it
Crabby is read-only. You add a wallet by pasting its public address, and that's all it ever stores. It can't sign transactions and it can't move funds. It's a display, not a wallet.
- Track up to 7 wallets
- Across 15 chains
- Auto-rotating on screen alongside your prices
- Prices refresh every 60 seconds
A few good habits
- Keep your seed phrase offline and never type it into any website or device that doesn't need it to sign.
- Double check you copied the full public address before adding it anywhere.
- Use a separate wallet for trying out new tokens, so your main holdings stay out of reach of anything risky.
Watching your wallets should feel calm, not risky. A read-only display lets you glance at your desk and know where you stand without opening a single app.
