Auditing your transactions is a good practice to ensure all transactions are properly displayed in your wallet. This also gives you the peace of mind that your wallet balance is exact, and up to date.
When auditing your wallet, all calculations need to be done using the amount of crypto you are evaluating and NOT the fiat value. This is because the fiat value fluctuates depending on market conditions.
For example, if you are auditing your Bitcoin wallet, you count all of your Bitcoin deposits and withdrawals to get your final Bitcoin balance.
Your transactions can be audited by following these steps:
Before you start the audit, be sure you refresh your wallet to make sure your Exodus wallet has all the latest information.
Export your Exodus transaction history. You can either export the transaction history for a single asset, or for all of your assets. Please follow this guide: How do I export my transaction history?
Open the CSV file from Step 2 into a spreadsheet program such as Google Sheets, Numbers (on Mac), LibreOffice, or Microsoft Excel. This will allow you to open the spreadsheet of all your transactions and allow you to start your audit.
At this point, you will need to look at your transactions and make sure that all of your transactions are accounted for. You can cross-check the spreadsheet with a block explorer.
Finally, take your total deposits and subtract your total withdrawals (including the fees), include any exchanges and this final number will be your final balance.
