Anything online can be hack, look at those big exchanges they had been a victim of the hackers too even they have a secured website. For me, I prefer desktop wallet to kept my altcoins, be safe keeping your private keys.
storing our token or coins in offline wallet will maximize its security. no one access it through internet except someone have an access to our computer.they can steal it.

in my opinion, quite the contrary. because in exchange everyone could even access. and when hackers find out, then it could be taken by the hackers. So should stand first in the wallet. To actually find the right market to sell.

Yes, I think everyone has the risk of storing coins in stock.
I prefer to keep a coin in MEY before I sell coins to the exchanges.
And so far it's very secure and not easily stolen.

I think IO has a very high risk because IO gives your money to the founder of ASo and you can get tokens but not necessarily the token is very useful and can make a price increase or not so that investment in ICO also has a risk.

I don't think it is safe to keep coins on the exchange for a long time, because the exchange will be hacked. The correct way is to have a personal wallet.

Generally as they will lose business if a news of hack comes out. Split your crypto if possible.
Also enable 2FA always.

I think it will still be safe, even if your assets are already in the ad exchange. Indeed most people would choose their assets remain in the purse and put them on the Exchange when they just want to sell it.

For short term, such as selling tokens / coins to the exchange is still fairly safe, but if for long term it's better to save it in your qt / web wallet wallet. because after all saving not in place will have a bad impact someday. I have experienced this from an exchange that recently experienced an exit scam which eventually lost all coins in that exchange. beware guys

If you think I am certainly safe. because an exchanger, let alone the large and already have a name. Of course it will not be easy accessed by hackers. They also must have a good protection system. So not to worry.

I feel keeping our coins in exchanges, mininize the risk of loosing our coins to wallet hackers.

do not save your money in exchange, if you want to save it in your wallet. You know that not a few times ago many people lost money when they saved it in exchange, because exchange was easy to hack and not to store coins or tokens.

Exchange sites are always under attacks due to the huge sums of money deposited there every time. Exchanges were made purposely for temporary holding of coins that are to be traded and once that is accomplished, withdrawn back to their original wallet. In the events where the security of an exchange site is breached, users holding their coins on them for long term are susceptible to fall victims to the attack.

Yes, I think that it is a safe thing to keep your coins in exchanges. While everyone thinks that it might get hacked, there is also a possibility of wallets getting hacked. Just keep your personal info private and don't share with anyone and I think that you are good to go. I leave my coins in the exchanges and I don't have anything to worry about.

I think that coins kept in exchanges are safe, as far as you keep your login info safe and personal and also activate the 2 factor authentication system.

I think it depends on the exchange in question, but in all, nothing beats a hard wallet. Get one for yourself and say no to hacks.

I think the coins that kept for exchange are still safe because I can’t see any valid reason that they are not
because they are doing the business transactions in a good way in this business.

It's not safe to save your coins in exchange. All exchanges are not created equal and people can still lose exchange money because exchanges are hacked or closed due to government regulations or other reasons.

I feel keeping our coins in exchanges, mininize the risk of loosing our coins to wallet hackers.
its better to, hide your tokens on a hardware wallet. if you really avoiding getting hacked.
or be very extra careful and vigilant on storing your wallet.
but i think, with hiding your coins on exchange. might help you feel secure.
but it is possible, that exchanges are not that invulnerable from hacks either.
not to mention restrictions from the government and technical issues.
so i guess its really up to you. where do you feel it that safe.
