Considering the safety of your coins and the simplicity of staking process, do you stake in centralized exchanges or you consider using crypto wallets that supports staking like imtoken, trust and atomic wallet.

Where do you stake?

Wallets were created for storing purpose, so if you are going to store your token or coin then pick the right wallet which gives you private keys.

Exchanges are meant for trading only, if you are going to use them for staking then you are in risk of losing funds.

Of course inside our own wallet, many things happened with the exchanges these years and more importantly they are a target of the hacker. The probability for them to screw you is bigger than holding it on your own, I do not have any trust left.
Remember what people said, you do not have the keys that mean you do not own the coins.

I prefer staking BNB on binance, which means staking at exchange is my option.

You’re wrong at this point, there’s a lot of exhange that give you bonuses or rewards for staking specific coins at their platform. And if staking at exchanges means a risk of losing funds, then there’s also risk for trading there. Risk can be found if there’s a risky situation made by the exchange. Ex : Th exchange has bad issues regarding trust. There’s few of them, but issue stays issue. But regarding funds, issue needs to be taken seriously.

Its always riskier to stake in exchanges. However I am staking my TRON in Binance. Till now it works for staking as well as all airdrops. But I do have bad experience as well with exchange staking. That exchanged is closed for ever now.

I prefer to keep it in a personal wallet like a hardware wallet or have a private key to access the assets that I have. there is no safe place, but we must be more careful in taking steps, I remember with the words of someone that evil never sleeps. Even what happened lately many crypto exchanges are hacked, especially in Korea. If you want to trade, prioritize looking for exchanges that have strong security and large volumes. Long-term hold is not recommended to store on the exchange, it is better to be stored in a personal wallet / hardware wallet.

Even exchange with good reputation can happen so we might have chance of losing all our funds.If you want those bonus you can keep the tokens on exchange but its not safe to store that is my point.

I'm safer storing my assets in a personal wallet although there are in some exchanges but for the long term I have locked the assets in the wallet and the key has also been stored in a place was never reached for old age

Best answer is our wallet because we still have control but in exchanges no, sometimes system got error and we loss without can recover. Some exchanges already have stake program but if you keep in exchanges it will use to manipulate others members. So the right answer is wallet and I believe no one will stop you to stake in there.

Using an exchange is too risky, ofcourse there are big exchanges like Binance where you can stake. I prefer using a wallet and stake my alts because I have access to my private key.  On Big exchange you do not. The most important thing in cryptocurrency is your Private key.

it is advisable to keep and stake your coin in your wallet because you have full control over your wallet. just recently we heard about a hack and an exit scam attempt from upbit and idax, what will happen to your coin if the exchange that you choose to hold it goes wrong just like upbit and idax?
this is why you need to hold it in your wallet.

I think the safest exchange to stake on may be Coinbase but even then, I wouldn't put my whole stash into one pot on a centralized exchange ever. Another exchange that offeres a much wider staking option for on exchange staking is Binance.
    I think the single best and safest option for staking would be in a wallet where you and only you have access to the private keys. An exchange, whether centralized or not, can still be hacked, jeopardizing your coins.

Well it is a simple question, if you are prioritizing your own safety then you must consider to stake them on your own wallet because you hold the private keys unlike exchange, the management holds it and if the exchange got hacked your funds will be stolen as well. And to take note that other teams runaway and do exit scam.

for simplicity, I prefer exchange. in my opinion as secure, our assets will not be stolen. risking our money on the exchange will make it easier for us if you will later buy coins or save them. while the wallet is for storing only.

Considering the simplies method and the safety of your asset then you must go on staking on your own wallet rather than staking on any exchange site, but I have some altcoin like xlm, algo & trx that I staking on Binance exchange site that I can get free altcoin every month not too large but this is okay for me.

I don't consider staking in centralized exchange for the safetiness of my coins. For storing my coins, I prefer to use hardware wallet; nothing else. In terms of using centralized exchanges, I tend to use it for the purpose of trading in which I'm always watching because it's more vulnerable from being stolen.

right, exchange can be shuted down any time. it's much safer to hold funds on some cold wallets

Users that stake their coins put them into a wallet that is connected to the blockchain.  By staking your cryptocurrencies you help to secure the blockchain and keep it going. We should stake in wallet because it can help the project.

I do that too for the only NEO token since binance is also distributing GAS. Though its not recommended to store on exchanges, its just that I wanna get it ready for disposal. Back when the price was $13 I bought some of it on June, it dropped but I kept it since I know I'd be receiving GAS. The beauty of haivng it there is that I can trade these NEO when it spike and buy back. I'd still just store NEO there but probably with ETH I'm going to stake using my wallet.

I put my Bitcoin in coinbase, the ERC 20 tokens I put in my IMTOKEN wallet application. Where my money depends on my investment strategy of long-term investment assets I will put them in the wallet I mentioned above. Short-term investments in just a few weeks or months I will put them on a wallet because maybe someone will pump up the price and I can sell them on time. Withdrawals and deposits will not be quick in the execution of the sell order.

I preferred using a wallet on my computer and i feel much safer and stsking is much in realtime i think which gives me more shares than staking on exchange and i cam encrypt my wallet and only do staking which is very secured cannot be hacked easily.

But the only problem using a wallet on pc is the confirmation when making a transaction and needs to fully synchronize on the server for app to go online.

I usually staking at exchange Binance because of its high profit. Although staking on an exchange would be a real risk, I think the Binance exchange will not be so bad as IDAX. Although it is the same country, I think Binance can still live because they have too large network and give China a higher GDP index every year.
Given all these factors, I think staking is still quite safe for large exchanges. Besides, the benefits are quite obvious when you will get interest rates higher than the bank to 6% a year.

If I personally risk it more in the form of a wallet than an exchange, because I am more confident in the security of the wallet than there is security on the exchange, although I also have risked it into the exchange, but that is only a little and not in the long run.

It is fine to stake with Binance as I know that they are more safe than other exchange and if someone hacked their exchange there is nothing to worry about because I know that they have insurance and can still pay the fund that I lost, as they are after their reputation too and not only blaming users that they shouldn't hold their assets on exchange which for me is not good.

you do wrong comparison, the comparison must be staking in exchange AND staking in wallet. NOT staking in exchange AND trading.
of course staking in wallet is safer than staking in exchange. many exchanges already being scam and stole investor money. the last incident was IDAX and upbit
Centralized exchange is very risky to safe our money, they can be scam anytime

I am not a fan of putting a huge funds in exchanges because some exchanges there are still passing hackers. so it give me a hard time to think that exchanges is still not the safest thing to hold our funds. as of now my wallet are not failing me to place my asset there. hoping that they improve more their securities to feel safe all users to their funds.

I haven't staked yet and I'm waiting for Eth's 2.0 staking which will be my best staked coins so far. And if that happens, of course as part of requirement I'll choose the eligible wallet that will be required by the devs.

Staking now made easier by the exchanges but I'll be careful with them.

I use a wallet to store my coins, and an exchange to trade my coins. Isn't that the only right way? Using the exchange to store coins is too dangerous.

the op's ask for staking a coin and not just simply storing a coin   . still you still have a plus point here because that is also what i think about . i think staking on a wallet or simply storing a coin on a wallet is more safer than putting it on any exchange because an exchange can collapse or hacked but wallets ?  you have a full control on your wallet as long as it gives you your private key's    . the only difference would be the rate's   . i think exchange has a gooder rate's compare to a wallet staking .

After losing my coins on Cryptopia, I only used exchange wallet for trading and never for storing, I am very careful in securing my private key and I don't want to rely upon to exchange when securing my coins, we have seen how they are targetted by hackers, if your wallet is not exposed you are not likely to be targetted, hackers are now very good, they will benefit more if they target exchange than wallets.

Anywhere you have the private keys of your wallet will be a safe place to store your coins, but most of the centralized exchange offers bonus when you stake a coin which means you are not in control of your funds you just trust the exchange reputation which may goes wrong any time.Exchange hacks over years are the proof why staking in an exchange is riskier.

All wallets are of course vulnerable to being hacked but all security is returned to the wallet owner if we can store the security key properly from any wallet it will be safe to use, and at this time I am still using a wallet from ethereum to store erc20 token assets but for other assets like xlm and tokens other than erc then I prefer to use a wallet of each coin for storage.
For staking coins it would take the risk of having a very large one I would rather not use that option.

too risky if staking coins in an exchange wallet.
it is better to store coins in your own wallet that you can store your private key, many variants of options for the wallet you want to use, depending on the type and needs. atomic wallet is also good, can store private keys.

Stay away from exchanges. Wallets will be your best choice to keep your money safer in every respect.
WOW. Is not 50% too much for 90 days? While others are 7-10% per year, this is suspicious. I have done some research about Sero, but I have not seen any major problems with complaints apart from bounty hunters. Volume is also around 6 million bucks, but I still recommend you to be careful.

I am not too worried about the staking coins method on popular exchanges, I can quickly sell at the best price at that time if it has passed the monthly unlock period.

For some other PoS coins, they have an unobtrusive exchange and reputation, but still profitable, this is where personal wallets are needed to prevent the worst possible, just a little complicated in synchronizing data and transaction models.

An offer that big would look like its going to end like a scam. This project if I remember did n IEO on gate exchange, it quickly gain after it but slowly dumped as well. Maybe because of this 50% growth too.

Staking ETH later might just be a good idea too unless there will be a pool like this one that might cause the dump. Better avoid staking on exchange and the tokens that allow exchange staking.

For longterm storage of token I prefer a wallet that I have access to its private keys. Anything can happen in a year for an exchange especially in this era where exchange COO can just run away with its staff, so what happens to my coin. Exchange and coin project team can have misunderstanding and delist such project, exchange is not a reliable position for any coin for longterm staking. Top exchanges are more reliable but 3-6 month is the best I can go on them

If asked to choose I prefer to exchange, because if I feel the wallet more vulnerable to irresponsible principals.

None of those. I prefer staking using official wallet or mostly delegate my coins and claim reward/interest. It's better to stake on your own than rely on third party service or wallet.

It seems to me that you should not trust the wallet that stores your keys, it’s not known where, because they may fall into the hands of just as unknown and your funds will go in an unknown direction, because there have already been so many different situations where people have stolen funds from the wallet and there were not return, I think it's better to resort to hardware wallets. I use ledger and there is no limit to my joy, as this is the best you could think of for a cryptocurrency.

I think before binance everything did made sense to keep it on your own wallet and stake, or something like a virtual pc VPS type of deal where you can keep it (with protections and backups of course) but after binance I started to feel like maybe the best way to keep your money could be binance?

I am not really entirely sure and I haven't moved my money there just yet but I feel like binance is such a huge place that they could not only help you get faster payments on your staking (the amounts are same but bigger amount gets paid faster so when all of us combined we get the same money but faster and smaller instead of bigger and longer) but also might start on masternodes as well.

For example, one dash masternode was around 1000 dash if I am not wrong which is not something everyone can do, but if 1000 people get together it becomes much easier.

Obviously staking in compatible wallets with good reputation is safer than staking on centralised exchanges comparatively. However, some coins do not have personal wallet support for staking especially  on mobile, and you know most people make use of mobile devices presently, hence people tend to use supported exchanges in this situation.

Imtoken is the best mobile wallet I've ever used.
never had any trouble in lost money or something like that. so I use it all the way since then.
I don't really trust the exchanges wallet though, just transfer coins when I want to sell only

I prefer NRG/Energi with their core wallet. It's looks cool for me
I prefer this because their core wallet is safe I think and minimum for staking just 1 NRG

I don’t participate in staking at all because the reward is very low. I prefer to trade these coins. before the staking is paid, the price usually falls, because after payments people sell their rewards

most of my tokens are now in binance's wallet.
I trust big exchange only. if there's any lost, I would claim and make refund. that's would never happen when using my own wallet.
but remember, big exchage only

Both, some exchanges do not support particular tokens, or exchanges are just trustless. The majority of my coins is placed on different wallets, but I am also holding stacking coins on exchanges like Binance or Huobi.

Never ever trust exchanges to stake. Firstly you will never know if the taking some off the top since there is compounding interest. Secondly, there is the possibility the exchange will run an exit strategy or something happens and they go offline you lose everything. If you do not have the privatekey with you in your wallet then you do not own the coins. The privatekey is with the exchange and you are at their mercy. 
There only reason people use exchanges is mostly for staking with masternodes since they are very expensive.


What are you talking about? It certainly is not trustless.

As technology is evolving, exchanges has become one of the easiest and fastest way to stake coin and earn profit. So if you are holding any such POS cryptocurrencies, then I think you should know how to start earning dividends by staking them in the right wallets as another option.

Both, I have some coins in wallets, official wallets, and I have some tokens from different exchanges, they are sitting there and generating some income over the time. Staking is a good way for generating passive income, its hard to start, to invest in first coins, to set up everything, but after that you do nothing and money is coming.

If you are conscious to the tokens security then you wouldn't think of staking your tokens in the exchanges as its just suppose to be where you trade. Some people may really wanna do store the coins on the exchange but these are the type of people who might just dump the coins later on when opportunity is there like if the coin is pumped.

That is true, but man I had better luck staking just a small amount of pivx on kucoin than I did in the pivx staking wallet.  Didn't do it for long, tho because I'm very aware of the risk of keeping crypto on an exchange.  Kucoin is a good exchange, but that doesn't mean I would trust them not to get hacked or to pull some kind of exit scam.  It seems like that has happened to most of the exchanges that have ever existed thus far.  That's sad.

So I would have to vote for keeping your staking coins in a staking wallet and *not* on an exchange, especially if you have a lot of coins or if they're worth a lot of money.  It was okay for me to play around with pivx because it wasn't worth much but if I had even $50 or more I would have kept it in my own wallet.

And they were a big exchange and a reputable one at that.  That's my point.  You just can't tell whether the exchange that you're putting your faith in is going to disappear overnight.

Personally, I am not a fan of staking and this is because of the penchant for projects to be increasingly unstable. CEOs and project team members can have disagreements that will hamper the project and whatever staking plans you have engaged in. It's a risk I am not willing to take personally.

i stake in on exchange and on my wallet. for wallet, i staked waves and LTO while on exchange, i stake XRP, TRON, NEO and ferrum. they might be shit coin i guess but that what i can offer. i love their ROI and it is annually. still looking out for nice staking platform out there if you might share any, i will be delightful.

Majorly depends on how the project is designed but it most cases that I have tried like that of veil privacy coin. Staking is done in the Veil wallet. All you need do is leave the wallet open. Generally, it's relative to platform in most cases besides wallets are safer too

I prefer stake in the wallet compared to exchangers because my funds are safer if they are stored on the wall even though exchangers that provide staking offer a big bonus but i don't want to keep the crypto assets too long there

Some wallets allow you to stake but mostly if the wallet is just for storing purposes then its not possible for that to happen. I don’t stake always because of the value is too low and it might put my coin on risk, centralized exchange is safe to stake especially if its a good one. You have to choose the best for staking and make sure that its worth the risk.

Me, I will think twice before to stake and I will choose the best and the most trusted exchange like Binance, And I don't know yet what wallet can start an staking. We can use google to search if what is the safest exchange. Beware to all scam exchange like IDAX. Simple technique and clean modus of exit scam exchange. take care of your funds people.

Of course people here have already read the news about the two exchanges that were hacked recently, IDAX and Upbit, now with the recent hacking, will you still consider storing your coins to exchanges, people never learn that exchange wallet are only for trading, if you are holding for long term get a cold wallet or a ledger, or keep your private key the safest place you've had.

It depends on the coins that my stake is listed on whether or not the exchange is good because an exchange that I don't like will not do it there. The imToken wallet only supports stake for tokens so I don't use it because I only stake on coins. So I prefer to stake in exchange

Staking on centralized exchange is not bad but still not 100% safe because anything can happen to the exchange and not all exchange will be able to refund users so its safer to stake coins in your own personal wallet

80% of my stake are held by local exchanger. although some opinions say it's dangerous, but believe me, I've lost a lot of assets in several online wallets. so because of this, I chose to keep the assets that I have at a local exchanger, and have a clear office. but, I'm thinking of storing it on the hardwallet in the future.

I stake my coin on exchange market and not save on wallet, I think there are not possible for staking coin on wallet. You have many exchange market support and available for staking coin like Binance, Upbit, Bittrex and you can stake your coin with Kucoin exchange wallet, look which one coin have stable price and give bigger allocation for staking every month.

This one is possible to happen thats why i prefer to stake it in my personal wallet. You are not so safe In terms of hacking or exit scam that possible to happen in any exchange you want to stake your coins .

which one do you like wallet or exchange? i think both unsafe.. but if i have to choose i prefer to local exchange.. because when any problem i can come to the office and fix problem as soon as posibble... save your stake in wallet so high risk, many phising anywhere, can't fixed the problem asap and many other things makes me not choose the wallet

Does the trust wallet have a staking program? as far as I can see most of the staking programs launched by exchange platform projects such as BCNEX, Beaxy etc.,
there is one application that I know of that is Waves, in that application has a leasing feature, just like the staking program

Exactly that’s why I encourage people to store their coins in wallets that they have access to their private keys. You only use exchanges to trade cryptocurrencies and not to use it as storage. There are news of people who lost their money in exchanges and they can’t do anything about it which is quiet sad and infuriating. Also, if you want to trade then better pick trusted exchange. If you want to be more secure you can buy a cold wallet.

Considering the safety of my money and the simplicity of the betting process, I am involved in quite a few centralized exchanges, I am very confident in cryptocurrencies and exchanges.

I am staking some coins in the trusted websites which offer to share with you the staking profits. I know it is not the safest method, but it is also very hard to download and run all these wallets in order to stake some coins and receive a little daily reward.

If you are true crypto believer than you should stake only in your wallet from which you have private key. But for many retail investors and also for insitutional investors it is more easy and comfortable to use custody services like Coinbase for staking.  8)

 If for me. I will choose the stake in the exchange because if the price of the coin in stake suddenly drops I will be able to sell it right away, there is no need to send it from a private wallet. But if for security concerns I choose a personal wallet

Im not into staking yet but im planning to go all in once real coins like eth will switch to pos algorithm that will secure the network via nodes i think it is very similar to mining but in a less expensive and a more eco friendly way. I will look about where i should store my eth to receive stake rewards once it is launched but definitely i will prefer some safe wallet rather than an exchange.

I used to stake using my wallet but it was hard to keep it all up to date when you have more than 2 different altcoins.

There are services that I'm testing like staked.us and mycointainer.com which allow you to stack multiple coins at the same time.
The downside is centralization but the upside is they are updating everything for you.

I keep my coins in exchange because I'm trading. Currently there are my coins in Binance and in the local exchange in my country. Until now it was safe. There are even other coins that I keep in other exchanges besides the exchanges I mentioned above. And for some bitcoin stored in my wallet because I will not sell it for a long time. Later I will send it to the trading market if the price is good and rises.

I don't see a difference between the two. It's all about your personal preference. But I think it's better to stake in the exchange. But I may be mistaken in this view.
It makes more sense to choose which cryptocurrency gives the most interest on an annual basis, and you can follow the recommendation of your invested cryptocurrency.

Most people are using decentralized wallets as I also used trust wallets or core wallets for staking,it's a little hassle but safe way of staking coins, you can also use exchanges but I suggest only the top 10 Exchanges.

so far safe with an exchange wallet, I mean for a truly credible exchange. Staking events are also frequently updated along with other promotional programs. so I can do 3 options at once, trading, staking, and investing (IEO, etc.), my funds are not too much, but I can maximize one option at a time with additional profit derived from other options.

Although everyone says that nothing should be kept on the exchanges, it is sometimes impossible to do differently, especially if you trade. In this case, you'll to choose choose the most secure platforms. For my part I keep my assets on various wallets (some desktops and a hardware one).

Safety factor is the most important thing in protecting all the assets that we have today, to ensure that I don't lose the assets that I have, I prefer to keep them in a trusted exchange because even if there is a hack on the exchange, surely they will return the assets we are lost, as has happened to several large exchanges that have been hacked

many people save their coin on exchange, main reason is its too simple if you want to do something with your coin. no need to transfer because its already on exchanger. but, it safer if you store on wallet, because it created to save your coin. i store in my waller, but i have in my exchanger, i need to buy or sell, or the other need

Staking your coins in centralized exchanges is risky because they are the main target of hackers and sometimes they create a drama for their exit scam so I will only stake my coins on a wallet in which I own the private keys to be safe.

I stake mostly on Exchanges than others as I prefer it and it's more easier to me. So certain Exchanges are better to me for staking and some already got all needed with good ROI.

I prefer to use Imtoken or trust wallet to hold my coin for longer because it is safer than in exchange or other market exchanges. I fear if it happens like an upbit and some markets are losing their funds. If you can return yes good Kalo not? Yes, we lose.

Honestly, if you want to do staking on the Exchange it is rather risky because we do not have full control of the wallet and there is a possibility of being hacked. Therefore you should be able to consider and have a trustworthy Exchange in this case, Binance can be one of the best choices. I would advise you to do it on a private wallet that supports this feature.

It's generally best to stake yourself using your own wallet and hardware provided you have a secure platform, but you can now stake a select number of top ranked assets on reputable exchanges like Coinbase that offer 5% for staking Tezos on their exchange and use custody to ensure customer funds are safe and insured

until now there are still so many people who store their assets in the exchanger, the reason is that they believe in the exchanger, and it is an easy way to trade. some people store their assets on hardwallets such as nano ledger, and others. so far, I still have assets that I have on an exchanger, and I have the same reasons as them. I just hope that the team from the exchanger is responsible if something unexpected happens.

Stake in your wallets, i know some big exchanges allow staking on their platform with good returns but its risky since its all out of your reach anything can still happen

To be honest, even considering to store your asset in centralized exchange that you don't have control is a pretty stupid idea much more if you plan to stake in it. Even Binance, one of the leading exchange in the world, could still get hacked so I think I'll stick with my own wallet. The gas isn't that expensive to transfer anyway. Don't want to risk my funds getting stolen.

Exactly, but there are wallets like trust and atomic wallet with DEX where you can trade coins too. Although trading on CEX might look easier but security should be paramount.

obviously security takes precedence, so I prefer personal wallet like mew which is 100% over our own control. but actually we can choose the exchange as long as we are ready with all the risks that might occur

I don't recommend staking your assets in any exchanges this is definitely high risky. You can but for a couple of months not long term. I wanna prefer trustworthy wallet for staking your assets i think it's a huge safety for short term or long term both will be secure. My some closest friend prefer me to store in the Binance but i opposed this method because i feel uncomfortable.

In recent time, we have faced a drastic problem for this issue, this is really an alarming issue that when an exchange could be hacked then your data could have also hacked, not only that but also your information might be leaked, in this way, your personal saving also could be hacked, so both storing systems are not secure, but for me, better exchange could be a safe place for storing for the future, but you have to choose the best exchange for this purpose because of every exchange is the main target of the hacker.

more as developer works on decision with the feature on system the tasks as qualifying different scheme on moderation helps as might with chance on completion to gives as preparing with one on option with the service to helps as improving returns with denomination.

Me either, the fate of your assets should be in your hands, placing your assets and stake it inside the exchange might face a big risk once the
exchange being attack by the hackers, everything will be taken away from your hands whenever the business disclose information about the
issues, unlike hen you are staking your assets inside your trusted wallets you are in-charge to anything that ill harmed your investment.

You have no full access to your fund if you are staking on anywhere else apart from your wallet, its really not a good and reliable way of staking, accounts can get hacked, exchange security can get breached so find yourself POS coins you can stake in your wallet

Stock is indeed one of the important sawer for investments, both in the short and long term. Because the investment is capable of generating more prices and able to advance more valuable assets. The stocks I recommend are wallets. Both in terms of security and comfort I prefer a wallet for stocks that I hold. Maybe it can produce inspiration for you in choosing and sorting.

I use wallet hardware to store assets, but also still use exchanges like BINANCE in this case security is still preferred for me so I thought why should I use others who do not have excessive trust

It depends on your goal. If you are going to stake for long term as a form of passive income then you should store your cryptocurrency or tokens inside a wallet, a secured wallet, so you will have nothing to worry about. On the other hand, it is a good idea to stake your cryptocurrencies inside an exchange if you are just aiming for short term gains.

Its better in the wallet, same points...better to hold your private than losing your funds. Staking in websites is very risky and not recommended. Once the site is offline or unavailable so are your funds, I hope someone is taking note of this.

There is no security on the Binance. this exchange has already been hacked. it is not a good idea to store a lot of your money on it. it’s best to hold there only the money which you use for trading

It is more user friendly to use custody services for staking because you can stake diffrent coins at one place. While when you stake in private wallets there is a risk that you forget about that and you will loose your cryptocurrencies, especially when you holding more low market cap staking coins.

Binance already hacked one time i don't know exactly how much hacked before. As a biggest exchange they recover users assets by SAFU fund this is really positive and professionalism. But i'm not trust any centralized exchange for staking because i have no control it's a big fact. In that case i'm strongly agree with you.

Wallets and exchanges both are safe for keeping assets as long as the holder is a smart person. First of all, he should choose a renowned, trustworthy exchange or wallet that is supported by million of users. Binance can be trusted blindly as it also takes responsibility of compromise. The user must be careful with his credentials. As it is said that, the weakest link in security is human because he can be fooled.

indeed, saving it to the exchange will be more risky, for me, I prefer to save it in a personal wallet, because it is our own fault if our wallet is hacked. different from exchange, many hackers will attack it. and even the best exchange can still be hacked, luckily yesterday the exchange was fully responsible

prefer to stake on my own wallet, whole point of crypto is to cut out the middleman

Usually when an exchange gets hacked and they didn't just running away from their responsibility but instead reimburse their users. that mean they are dead serious about growing their exchange and the security hole is probably already fixed and in the future will improve their security but no system is safe. i didn't really trust these exchange but to stake a little amount there is quite okay for me. just don't stake too much.

Different opinion about this. But I stake my tokens and coins on premium exchange. It's not that I dot trust them but the convenient is very appealing. It's like you can store tokens and coins of different type in one place. Particularly binance and citex I like these two although citex is a bit new exchange.

Few exchanges are reliable for staking but i won't be able to sleep comfortable at night no matter how big the exchange is  ;D i would rather find other coins i can stake in my wallet that i have its private keys with me

See from the type of coin and security wallet/exchange where the stake.
If the Roinya is higher I prefer to do the stake there, but ensure its security, I will not do the stake on the exchange that does not have a good reputation, although it offers a great advantage. Security that should be prioritizing.

If we really want to staking in a centralized exchanger, it's better to choose an exchanger who already has a good reputation. But it will be safer if we choose staking in our own wallet because we are in control of the coins we have

Agree, it's safer for us as coin owners to staking in the wallet that we have control of the private key. Now some mobile wallets have started staking and I think it's safer to save coins in a mobile wallet because exchangers are more vulnerable to hacking

With the rate which exchange are closing and running with people's funds, I think that staking in exchange will be at a very big risk so I personally and will always use wallets

I am keeping my assets mostly at Binance, because I trade them everyday, every minute. As a wallet, I am using Atomic Wallet if I want to hold something like BNB or BEP2 tokens. Other than that I prefer using MyEtherWallet to store my ERC-20 tokens. I think they are enough.

well if you have your own laptop or desktop it is better to stake on your own wallet
its not a good idea to leave and trust some new platform
there a possibility that you will lose all your coin instead of earning small amount of stake

Don't really trust exchanges to hold my tokens there constantly, prefer other ways, which I can control. THe risks are too high, witnessed some sad cases during my crypto life :)
