Crypto platform Kryptos has connected portfolios to ChatGPT, letting users ask about value, cost basis and gains, pulled directly from the wallets and exchanges they've linked to the service. The app cannot move funds, and requires a paid ChatGPT plan.
ChatGPT can be extended with third-party apps that connect the assistant to data and services users already have accounts with. Kryptos, a company that tracks crypto holdings and calculates tax across wallets and exchanges, has now made such a connection available to its users. Founder Sukesh Kumar Tedla announced the news in a LinkedIn post this week.
Once Kryptos is connected in ChatGPT, users can ask questions like "what is my crypto portfolio worth right now" and get holdings, cost basis and gains in one reply, pulled from the wallets and exchanges linked to the account. "We spent years on the boring part, getting 5,500+ integrations into one clean record. This is the fun part," Tedla writes in the post.
The connection is read-only. Kryptos cannot move money on the user's behalf, and the service requires a paid ChatGPT plan. To use it, users open "Plugins" in the ChatGPT sidebar, search for Kryptos and install the app, according to Tedla.
Tedla points to a different question he says users should ask before checking portfolio value: which transactions are missing prices or purchase history. A single missing price can throw off the gain calculation on that trade, and most people only find out at tax time, he writes.
Kryptos' ChatGPT connection arrives the same week Bitpanda and Danish Coop Bank opened investment accounts to AI assistants. Bitpanda made itself available as a read-only app in ChatGPT's plugin directory, while Coop Bank Investering let customers connect their investment account to ChatGPT or Claude. Both, like Kryptos, drew a clear line between answering questions and executing trades or moving money.
The pattern points in the same direction: financial companies are increasingly letting customers ask about their own holdings directly through AI assistants, without the assistant itself being able to act on the user's behalf.
