RE: Ledger Nano S Does not work!!!!!!! FUCK MY LIFE! August 1st is coming! Coinbase not supporting both chains!
It's a newer computer so I'm assuming USB 3.0. Seems like a lot of work lol. I would prefer to keep my coins on coinbase. I know everyone says it isn't the safe thing to do because they could get hacked, but I believe they keep less then 1% of the coins in their hot wallets. So in the event of a loss due to a hack they would retain 99% of their funds. I cannot say the same for myself if I was to get hacked holding my own coins...
The danger really is that you don't own your private keys with Coinbase...they do. I live in New York and with the local laws and fed depts we have to deal with here protecting wallstreet... Coinbase is a nightmare and can freeze assets without warning or stated reason, but we're stuck with them.
Yeah, they are the best at what they do. With a Ledger I don't control my private keys though, so it's the same thing isnt' it?
if it works like a trezor you hold your private keys on the nano.
