How do you keep track of your wallets and on chain transactions? (and keep your privacy) (self.ethereum)

Using Ethereum, it's just natural to have multiple wallets. I was wondering how are you keeping track of all these wallets, balances, and transaction you've made?

I'm aware of apps specialized for taxing and some fancy apps (like debank and zapper etc.) but I'm looking a more privacy-friendly way.

Using bare Excel sheets can be very verbose.

Ethereum is a privacy nightmare to be fair. But what is possible to do. Use different wallets with different IP, do not interact with the same dapps with different addresses do not send anything between you own addresses which are meant to be unlinked. Track assets manually with explorers and spreadsheets, oh yes. And this is far from enough.

Agreed. The sad thing is that the slightest mistake can ruin everything.

Track assets manually with explorers and spreadsheets

My main question is this part. As simple as it seems, it's not always straightforward to do. How can a user keep track of which addresses are liked to which exchange/on ramp, for example? How can you easily label and keep track of this history. Are there any solutions or even general tips for these?

Mostly manually, I assume. One need to remember or to write down a wallet purpose somewhere.
