I think he's complaining about not being able to trade his BTC elsewhere while waiting for a withdrawal.  I don't particularly enjoy having to process manual withdrawals either, but I'm willing to do it because I VALUE YOUR BTC.

I do agree with his assessment that it is not wise to have more on the exchange than you're willing to commit to for a day or so.

I also sympathize with people wanting to move their BTC around quickly, however I think it's better to have slower moving BTC than no BTC at all when the hackers come calling.


I wonder if I setup an option in the site:  Keep my coins in the [ ] HOT WALLET [X] COLD WALLET

Would people really want that?  I mean, I could do it.  And the users that opt to keep theirs in the hot wallet get no withdrawal limits, but also get their balance zeroed out if it's ever stolen?
