RE: Why I finally bought cryptocurrency (like Bitcoin, Ethereum) and you should too.

in #technology7 years ago

Welcome to the crypto community. I do not know if it was a mistake but you shouldn't refer to Coinbase as a wallet. Yes it's somewhat secure and you have a loose insurance backing but anything online can be hacked. Also keep in mind they will only back your money if they get hacked on their end. I recommend a true wallet like Trezor and Ledger or any of the others that are on the market. You can even make cold storage paper wallets which I'm sure you know of. A non-issue but since you're somewhat "new" I thought I bring it up. Great article nonetheless.

Thanks for the critique and comment. I wanted to keep the article very simple and thought mentioning other wallets and sites might start confusing someone new, but I agree with your points. I'll update the article a bit to reflect them.
