is KuCoin safe and secure? 🔒🤔
The KuCoin team seems to be doing a pretty good job in keeping the platform secure. But regardless, while KuCoin is a great platform to trade, we always recommend using a hardware wallet for holding coins and tokens for the long term.
Final Thoughts 🗒
Trading or investing in tokens using centralized or decentralized exchanges is great and all that, but always make sure your funds are secure. We always recommend using a nice hardware wallet like a Ledger to achieve this.
