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

Much safer than keeping them on a constantly used wallet. Also depends on the exchange. If the exchange is from the top 10, the security level is high, if exchange is new and unknown, then the security level is low. It is better to keep coins in a cold wallet.

Well it depends on what exchange you are using like bittrex and mercatox where you can only login by using 2FA and confirming your login in your google accounts which is good . But its best to also used private wallets so only you can access it

keeping in exchange is not good idea. because those kind of wallet accounts using in exchanger is hackable hot wallets. if you don't trade altcoins on any exchange its better if you keep it to your cold wallets.

As long as you use 2fa and you use top exchanger you are safe. You keep your coins on exchanger because you trade them all. At the end its your choice.

for me,Every saving the crypto will have the risks of losing them because of hacks and other factors. But, i also have some coins on exchanges and still keep them there. So far, it is good enough and no problems exactly. however, I must be also more careful in managing the coins and account,if you have condition i think ledger nano is best tool to use!

It is safe if you trust the exchange, if it is an exchange with a huge turnover of money, if you have a strong password and two-factor authentication is enabled.

I’m sure that it is not secure because of lack of honest among almost all exchanges. I have some bad experience related to Bittrex who deleted my account for unknown reasons taking not so big sum of money but leaving bad impression towards this platform. The most ridiculous thing that they continue to sent advertisements for me, last one was related to trades in USD.

For me your coins in any exchanges are not safe. Unless you enable some other security features. Such as 2fa code.

Don't keep your tokens in exchanges. Even though you enabled 2 FA, it is very risky because now a days exchanges itself are vulnerable to hacking and attacks. So please keep your tokens of coins in cold wallets after completion of trade.

I think that it is quite safe to store coins on the exchange, the main thing is to store your coins or tokens on a reliable exchange, but still the wallet is more secure, especially if you use a hardware wallet.

Yeah to an extend, but sometimes the exchanger can also be  hacked. And that will lead to maximum lose. I will advise the use of hardware wallet

Depends what exchange and now credible the exchange is. If its a sketchy exchange with poor security you could be subject to lose funds.

I can say with 100% certainty that the coins are not safe at the exchange.  They are constantly screwing up and making bogus rules to hijack your funds.  Huobi hijacked my tokens for over a year because of an unwritten rule.  Hold your funds yourself.

I have a different way of thinking from you, to save my coin / wallet, I just log in to a quiet place or not on my PC, log in via my cellphone, and I am quite helpful.

Let me tell you one thing coins are not safe anywhere nowadays. Hackers have found new ways to attack you and steal your hard earned money. Many scams have also happened due to exchange lapses.

Well, it seems like happenings with the most reliable exchanges and their failures hadn't touch you. There is no anyone, who fully deserves your trust. Manage your storage according this conviction.

You want to avoid wallet hackers, but honestly storing coins on the exchange is also not safe. the exchange also has the threat of hacking, and also the risk of closing the exchange due to government regulations. the safest way is to keep the coins in the wallet, and don't open the wallet carelessly.
