Hello guys,

question is in headline. I know that it is always better to have your own wallet on mobile or desktop but I cant find good (with excellent rate) Android wallet that support btc eth and ltc. So Coinbase or multiple wallets (one for each cryptocurrency)?
 
Eh, I would say coinbase is the safest exchange to keep it on, but don't do it. I keep small amounts on coinbase, but all my puppies are sitting between 2 nano s ledgers that locked up at a bank :)
 
Not at all.Even though coinbase is a safest exchange among all other exchanges, but it's never been a good idea to store all of your currency in an exchange.No guarantee for an exchange.They could even steal your BTC.Consider a hardware or a desktop wallet.

By the way I read a thread in Bitcoin forum about Male domination in crypto world.But whenever I see posts about crypto here on BHW, I always see comments with girls names and images.
 
I treated myself to .05 BTC (nothing major, as I wasn't really serious about BTC at that time) for a birthday present to myself, 3 years ago, and purchased on coinbase. Since then, I've had multiple new computers, and have since lost all of my wallet.dat files. However, 1 of the only two places I still have BTC as I recently got back interested in it, was coinbase! So they're good, in my book. They kept a better vault than I did. But again, I wasn't too serious about digital currency, back then. Now, however, I'm kicking the **** outta myself!
 
We can only guess. There is no guarantee of reliability.
 
An exchange is what it sounds like , to exchange your coins. So do not ever store large sums of coins there. If you're looking to 'trade' coins then storing on an exchange sounds okay but always assume there's a substantial risk when your coins are not on your own wallets.
 
totally agree with @https://www.blackhatworld.com/members/virtualpurity.512723/
Only hardware wallet can secure your coins for long term. all web base or mobile app wallets can be hacked. and exchanging sites more easily. And Coinbase is an exchange
