Like everyone has already said you don't actually house and control your own money. Coinbase does. This is OK for smalltime stuff while you are getting to know the ropes. It is kinda like going to the casino and handing them a $20. You walk around trading that 20 in and out of various slots getting a piece of paper each time telling you what you have value wise. Some point you need to go to a cashier and cash it out and put that money in your WALLET. (If you have any left LOL) ... I would really suggest getting an Exodus wallet myself. It is a NON KYC (know your customer) . They have great customer support and videos. That is a great wallet to HODL (hold for long term). You can search most of this stuff and learn about. Just be sure when sending from CB to the receive address in your wallet whichever you choose , make damn sure everything is correct before sending because you can loose it all if the address is incorrect. READ UP ON THAT WELL!! It's a little scary honestly but I'm only a few months into crypto and I have come a LONG way already i think. It's amazing ... especially BIT[Suspicious link removed]D LUCK and enjoy!
