is our coin safe in etherdelta?

[daplun]

hi the masters in bitcointalk

most every altcoin works with ETH wallet, and we get the coin through our ETH address. if we sell the coin in Etherdelta market. in etherdelta we are told to import our ETH address and Privat key from our ETH address.

The question of whether the coin coin at our own ETH address will be safe, because directly the privatkey of our ETH address is already on the Etherdelta site?

If you hold the private key of your EtherDelta account, then yes, it's safe. However, I do not suggest leaving your tokens on any exchanges because there are instances where some people reported losing their coins when they have left it on an exchange site. It's best to just store your tokens on your ETH wallet, e.g. MEW, and just move or transfer it to EtherDelta when you need to trade it.

I don't think it's perfect secure, because your information is still on the exchange

Yes it is safe as long as you have your private key in safe, and etherdelta would keep your private information in safe and if there's any problem report it emmediately for immediate sulotion. And check your coins regularly.

To be safe, it is better to create a brand new wallet and send the coin you want to trade to the wallet.

Another way is to use Ledger wallet with Etherdelta, private key will not be known in the browser.

I dont trust etherdelta at all cause i lost some of my coins when i tried to trade there.
and its not even a user friendly site, im having hard time to trade on that site.

I think it's safe, if you keep your private key, if you want more secure you can use metamask, do not use on various devices otherwise you can be hacked. and be careful it is now a lot of pishing links to get into etherdelta, such as via email, etherdelta never send any email, so do not ever click any links from sources that are not trusted

[Ratash]

yes its safe i use it for a long time but  you just have to disconnect by removing the private key once you use other than your computer

[h0lybyte]

Well, some members do mistakenly share or get traced their sensitive data which they have save in their notepads.
They even don't have clues how their private keys gets shared. Etherdelta is a largest exchange, they never access client's wallets.
You should never save private keys in notepad. Etherdelta is safe as far as you don't share your keys elsewhere

[sweerty1]

Etherdelta is pretty much safe website that you can trust to use. But for security I wouldn't suggest you to put private key there. It is better to open brand new account and operate over it.

I'm sure it's safe, because I often leave my alt in eth accounts that I've import into etherdelta, but for a large amount of assets, I keep them in different eth accounts, because we do not know what's going to happen in the future.

Better do it that way because we never know for sure what will happen if our coins are in etherdelta and because the private key is already provided then maybe there is a small possibility that someone would be able to access it. As what they say, we should not put all our eggs in one basket so it is applicable in the coins as well. Maybe you hold many tokens in your wallet so you better separate others in another wallet and then if possible if you don't trade it in etherdelta then you just withdraw your tokens and store it in your wallet.

Etherdelta is safe thats why there are plenty users who are using it... and also ti assure your tokens are safe at etherdelta just maje sure that you keep your private key safe
Becarefull because most of complains about etherdelta are cause by pishing site, better double check your url before logging in your private key

[QFT]

I'm using it without any issues.
But when my tokens are getting more valuable I usually start dealing with smaller amounts or separate wallets.

Yeah this thing will do especially if you have a lot of coins. Just make a new wallet then transfer your coin that you'll use for trading or if you don't wanna make a new one, just click the forget account in the upper right corner after you're done trading.
Etherdelta is safe because it's a decentralized one but we should be better more cautious in securing our coins. After all it's better be safe than sorry.

How could you lose some of your coins while trading at etherdelta? Mind to share it in more details? I'm using them but never lost any coins so far, and I hope I wont lose anything in the future. So far, etherdelta is trusted and maybe it is the most used site by bounty hunters where they are going to sell their coins. You need to try using opera browser, I have no issues while accessing or placing trades at etherdelta using opera browser.

[omorfi]

It is decentralized that makes It very safe i think. By the way you need to keep your private keys safe. And do not hold your coins in etherdelta transfer it from mew to etherdelta when you want to trade.

[tanghere02]

Actually it is safe in Etherdelta most especially if you hold your private keys and only you know your private keys as well then no one will be able to access the coins stored in the site. I have a couple of coins stored in there and kept them for a couple of months already, though I check it from time to time because of these negative feedbacks I read sometimes but luckily they are all there and so I trust Etherdelta.

This one is right, storing your altcoin in myetherwallet is the safest things wallet you can do for now. It is proven and tested already who testified by many of the community here in this industry.

Etherdelta is a decentralized exchange which means they dont have the information that you have putted on the site.Even you input your privatekeys on there it is guaranteed safe as long you are the ones who are using that browser on that time.This is the goodness of using decentralized exchange which you can directly import your mew account details and trade up directly on the coin you do like to trade.The thing here is that when you are still a newbie you would really be confused on how this exchange works specially on selling and buying stuff on here.
