Disclosure: I built something similar called HODLings.
Fungible's architecture (local data, no vendor cloud) is the right answer for
the crypto ecosystem too (arguably even more so).
Which is why I built HODLings: manual holdings entry (no exchange
keys, no wallet-address pasting), live prices from CoinGecko,
allocation and history charts, multi-fiat display. Same minimal-
tracker shape Fungible has, but scoped to crypto.
Main failure mode is forgetting to export the backup before a browser
wipe. Set a calendar reminder.
In essence, it runs on your mobile device and stores all your data locally. It only connects to the freely available CoinGecko API (for latest prices) and GitHub (for reference and historical data). A background job updates GitHub ref data hourly. There's no login, no cloud, no ads, etc.
It may or it may not - time will tell. However, atm, I think they're competing for attention and investments, which is why they make such bomb she'll claims
Yes, AI tools rarely push back and tend to agree with the human. So if the human is spitting racist/misogynistic/homophobic etc crap, they'll find in AI a friend to validate and encourage them ...
- It wouldn't quite work on mobile devices. Many ppl wouldn't like to download 4GB on their iPhone;
- Many use cases involve real-time data - e.g. summary of the latest news and events. That would require the LLM to be updated often and be able to perform actions like Google searches;
- Switching devices will lose the history, created artefacts, etc.
While I think there're use cases, IMHO, they would be mostly for tech experts and not the wider audience.
