Avoid holding your coins on an exchange

in crypto •  3 years ago 

Last week #BitMart exchange was hacked and it lost $200 million of users funds.

Today, the AscendEX exchange was also hacked for $78 million.

This is why "storing" or holding your coins on an exchange is not a good idea.

Though some exchanges promise to reimburse you if you suffer a loss due to these hacks, what if they can't or refuse to?

What if they're hacked beyond what they have in their insurance fund?

Your coins should be in your wallet because you are your own bank. That's what crypto is all about.
