Short: No.
However, I tend to keep only about 0.2btc in an exchange at any given time.

I would trust Coinbase more than anyone else. I don't see any reason to keep all of your crypto holdings in an online wallet though, especially if they are significantly large.
What I personally do : I own about 30 btc, and I let them sit on Kraken.
I keep them there for several reasons :
- I dont trust myself to keep a paper wallet safe for a long time.
- I mostly trust Kraken, in particular because they have automated audits.
- I want to be ready to sell quickly in case of a huge crash.

They are pretty good. I like their exchange.

Do I trust them? No, why would I?
Do I do it? Yes, I'm an idiot

Why are u giving a surveymonkey poll while we have the poll feature in the forum itself ? That way, u dont need to update the result too... we can see it ourselves.
I used a surveymonkey poll because I also posted this poll elsewhere, and I want to centralize all results in one place.
I changed the settings of the poll so that you can see the results right after you answered it.
There's no sense in holding ALL the bitcoin savings into an exchange but if I would be forced I'll deposit mine into BitStamp,
the only one I trust.
Offline wallets + paperwallets + online wallets (small amount to trade) to be secure and have some fun.

We all know Bitcoin is made so that you can be your own bank, and if handled properly, it's the only way for your money to be really secure.
Nevertheless, I'm sure many of us still have a significant amount of bitcoins on an exchange, for various reasons (because we trade a lot, or because we trust an exchange more than a paper wallet).
