Wallets

It’s very important that you don’t leave large amounts of cryptocurrency on an exchange (e.g. Coinbase/GDAX). You want to store your cryptocurrency in wallets which you have setup and personally control. Hardware wallets are well-recommended by the community, but a desktop or mobile wallet is good enough for storing smaller amounts of cryptocurrency.
