Hi guys, i'm new in this forum. And i'm learning a lot by all of you! Thank you.

I've got one account in coinbase and another in binance. I'm holding btc in coinbase. My doubt is: Will i receive the free corresponding money when a fork occurs? Should i transfer my btc to binance instead? Should i make anything else? Thank you

the best thing to do so you can be sure that you will receive the forked coins is to move your bitcoins to an address that you have its private key
this is 100% , binance may distribute the fork coins but if they don't make an announcement then there is no guarantee
but when you have the coins in your own address you would be able to get all the fork coins in the future

Would you say transferring to the Ledger Nano S is more of a sure bet than to Binance? I hold my BTC on Coinbase currently.
