Yeah, more and more coins/tokens of exchange have been stolen recently.
So if it is not to be traded right away, it's better to mention you to take the coins to your wallet.
And put your wallet, you can force yourself to hold the coins for a long time.

Keeping coins in wallets is safer. All of us many times heard and breaking of exchanges, about abduction of all money by owners of exchanges

Right. I think wallets are much safety. Though which wallet us the safest one. Sure not taking into account Hard wallets. But combining wallet and scanner like coinmonkey would do a greater job

It is batter to keep your Coins in a wallet instead of exchange. Because you have to keep extra record if you keep your coins on trading exchange. Most exchange does not provide summery of your holdings.

The best way is to either use a nano ledger or a desktop/mobile wallet on a device that you don't use for anything else. I have seen people getting hacked by infected softwares that hacks the desktop or mobile wallet by accessing the sensitive information and also people getting hacked because of crashing or hacking of an exchange. Only keep that much amount on exchanges that you require for trade. Coins that you are holding for long term, should be kept safely in a different device or hardware/paper wallet.

Very simple;
Exchange: You don't have the private key. Not safe.
Wallet : Safe forever , because you can control that coins.

Use Exchange for trading only.

I have a question.
What is better? To keep your coins on some Exchange site or to open wallets for each coin?
I would like to hear some advice.  What are pros & cons of each option?
Thanks
Many advise not to keep your coins on exchange and that's right, but there are examples for example related to the need to store 10, 15, 20 different coins and for this it is difficult to create cold wallets on your computer. Therefore, if the amount is not large and if the coin was bought not for long-term storage, then it is easier to keep it on exchange. And in the event that you plan to store for a long time, then you definitely need to create a cool wallet on your computer and be careful with viruses, otherwise you can lose everything even having a cold wallet.

Keeping private keys is better bc you don't have to worry about the exchange being hacked, being gone the next day because you are in control of your security. An alternative to using an exchange that holds private keys for you is keeping control over the private keys yourself and using a trading platform. Here is a company that is doing just that.

better to keep your coins on your own wallet that you have control on private key than keeping it on exchange. unless you are a day trader that trades coin for profit.

You are really right, because many users who were stored in the form of a coin on purses exchangers, very cool regret about it. There are times when you will simply lose me, And if you used this address in Bounty companies, you may not get your earned coins.

Holding for long term then use your own wallet.
Trading for profit use exchange wallet.

pros of own wallet is you have control on its private key
cons is it takes time and effort if you want to trade your coins for instance.

My advise is do not store your cryptocurrencies in exchangers. It is still safe if you will keep your cryptocurrencies in trusted wallets. Exchangers are not wallets, there are many exchangers that were been hacked by the hackers. You can ensure that your coins are safe if you will keep it in trusted wallets.

Saving all the coins in one exchange for me is not very recommended, because saving in exchange is very risky. If you want to save on an exchange, better keep it on a reputable exchange but you should still review it every day to keep funds safe there. I would recommend saving funds on a wallet.

The huge advantage is, that most of the tokens are created on the ERC-20 platform and are provided by one wallet. I recommend to buy a hardware-wallet, which allowes to store several dozens of tokens at one place. Exotic tokens in small quantities may be stored at popular exchanges. Only don't forget about 2FA  Wink

It may be hard for novice users to understand this principle, but a cryptocurrency wallet is not like a bank account. With a bank account, you rely on a third-party service provider to safeguard your funds. That is exactly what exchange wallets are, yet they do not let users spend their funds as they want. You always need “permission” from the exchange wallet service provider to move funds around, which is both annoying and risky.

I prefer to keep my coins in my wallet, I can secure it effectively, but with exchange, there is a chance of hacking, I only keep a portion of the coins that I am going to trade, there's a lot of hacking going on exchanges and you will have no control once it is hack.

If I wanna to hold for long term.  I to keep private keys somewhere safe. Keeping your holdings in exchange can be big threat against your expectations regarding selling them for profit after some time

Actually about the security of wallet store cryptocurrency, I think core wallet is enough to help we have a safe wallet. It just depends on how to you using which device you used to store crypto. Secure that device careful, you do not have risk about stolen your coin.

If you are daily trader then exchanges are the good option but there is possibilities of hacking the coins any time by hackers on particular exchange.
But if you are not a daily trader or you want to hold your coins for long term for good return then wallet is the best option because in this offline wallet you are safe from hackers.

I trust the wallet rather than the exchanger. because with the wallet we can use our own control and can keep our assets until whenever and more secure. different from unsafe exchanger and have been exposed to fraudulent indications from various exchangers.
