Topic: Leave Bitcoin in Exchange? - page 4. (Read 1194 times)
If you can afford a hardware wallet and you are going to buy more BTC then buy it. Hardware wallets allow you to keep your private keys encrypted and never exposed to the computer which means that you can use it even on infected computer (you can check wallet screen if the receiving address haven't changed). If you don't want to spend extra money, download Electrum and encrypt your private keys. Make sure to make a few copies of them!
The only reason to leave anything in an exchange is if you're a super active traders. And even the very best traders will only leave a small amount of their overall net worth on an exchange if they have any sense.
If you have no need or plans to trade within the next hour then you're doing yourself a disservice by leaving it on there. Even if the exchange itself is fine, it's possible someone might get your login details and empty it.

Some people says that the wrost thing to do is leave your bitcoins in some exchange.
Yes, because the exchange you stored your bitcoins can be hacked and that's we are trying to avoid and help people telling it that way. And you don't own the keys there.

Any amount that you want to keep your bitcoins safe must be transferred to a wallet that you hold the seeds or keys. And electrum is a good choice, it will your keys and seeds so you are the one who's controlling your bitcoins.

It's always better to keep in control your coins, If you have the control, you don't need to pay extra fees for the services, the time to make transactions is fastest than using a third party wallet, and the hackers are always aiming to sites like Payeer or exchanges rather than people.
What a bad idea! I left some bitcoins on Poloniex when they had a very big issue on August 2nd, i was so afraid to lose them since i had 1.2 btc in my polo wallet. I felt that i was going to lose them because that issue.. So soon as they fixed that, i bought an offline wallet and i am now storing my bitcoins in there, i think that is the most safest way to store my coins.

I was keeping my coins on (ex) btc-e and then suddenly they gone down when I needed my coins most.
I am happy that I got my coins back.
Now, I keep my coins on my secured wallet with backup on my USB pen.
Also, do not keep your backups on some cloud drive as some crackers may have it easy.
I advise you to use a windows / mac wallet, it is much safer than a wallet online, it allows you to sleep quietly without worrying about your bitcoin
I would hold it in the exchange because 200 us dollars is a small amount, I can double it by trading an altcoin these days easily. No need to worry about it moving to another wallet. but choice is yours

200 bucks is hardly anything to be worried over. Most computer programmers make than every 2 hours. But the answer is "you should never keep your property on someone else's property".

Replace some with EVERYBODY with a brain.
Bitcoinica, gox, mint, btce, inputs...how many of those need people to experience on their own skin before they realize that when you deposit coins on an exchange you basically lend them with no contract and no real way of getting them back legally if something bad or a "hack" happens.
Do you even know where this payeer is located? Who they are?
A LLC limited liability company based in Georgia (the country). Nice.

Leaving all funds in an exchange is risky as they are more prone to hack as they have to deal with a greater number of hack attempt than usual.I have 200 usd of btcs in Payeer, it is a online wallet but it also has a exchange.

And a single successful attempt can cause huge loss of funds to them as well as you.
Hell yes move it. If you do not have exclusive control of your private keys then you don't have bitcoin. When I use an exchange I only leave coins for a few minutes tops. Consider that you don't know these people and have zero ability to recover your BTC if they decide to take them.
