I purchased $1000 worth of BTC in November last year on Localbitcoins and I decided to leave the btc in my account on the exchange. I know this is extremely ill advised but I decided at the time that since transaction costs were so high and it's such a small amount of btc that transferring it out to a personal wallet and then back to the exchange when it was time to sell would eat up too much of the gains (losses).
Anyway, I believe transaction costs are lower these days if I'm not mistaken, I have an electrum wallet set up, how much would i expect to pay these days to transfer 0.064 btc from the exchange to my own wallet for safekeeping? Am I correct in thinking that costs have gone down? Is it worth transferring? Cheers in advance.
Definitely, it is worth to keep your coins at your control than keeping your coins under someone else control. As others already said the transaction amount is quite small compared to the last year November fees and if you don't have a plans to sell immediately then better store those coins in your personal wallet.
