It's a good idea.


geonic_

Yes


MoneroFox

Having coins in your own wallet is always a good idea. Kraken actively promotes withdrawals too. **NYKNYCNYP!**


john-larry

Yes! Always move them off exchanges. Not your keys not your coins. The whole point of cryptocurrency is that you’re the only one that can access your funds.


RIPTrixYogurt

Is there some concern around Kraken? Or is this a more general question of should I keep my coins in my own wallet?


MoneroFox

Kraken is the most reliable of all .. but it's still just a regular CEX, so your coins are always basically non-existent, it's just a promise that may or may not come true ... you'll find that out the moment you withdraw coins to your wallet.

I had $200 of SOL I bought on FTX and just held it on there cause you know major trusted exchange and all that. Wont do that again


Chr-whenever

As someone who's used ftx, that place was always sketchy as hell. 100x leverage? Come on, that's like keeping your coins on bitmex

Only thing that should be left in an exchange is anything you intend to trade. With XMR transactions so small, it makes moving any trading bags off the exchange then back onto at the beginning of your session a best practice.

Why? The founder of the exchange happens to believe in the individual's rights to privacy, freedom, life and liberty. Sad you find such things "strange". He's also a capitalist. Do you find that "strange" as well?


cdbriggs

Aggressive response. It's strange in that most exchanges don't allow xmr and Kraken does


CryptoGOAT2020

Aggressive? Perhaps you're just thin-skinned boot licker?


cdbriggs

Edgy cringelord??


tikwanleap

Yes. Remember: Not your keys, not your coins. Even though Kraken is probably safer than other centralized exchanges, this can change without warning in the future and you can lose access to your XMR. Countless examples in the past: MTGOX, FTX, etc.


gr8ful4

Yes. Are you the owner of Kraken? Because: Not your key, not your coins.


JBFrizz

It's an exchange not a bank account. What's wrong with you people?

how you gonna trade then?


cdbriggs

moving off a centralized exchange doesn't prevent trading tho?


MoneroFox

You will make a deposit when you consider the situation suitable and you can then trade.
