you're right in terms of safety, not your keys not your coins
but some sites like freebitco.in and FTX are trsutable and there are high probability that you'll have no problem with them, as stated before.
If these sites allow us to export the private keys, then I don't have a problem with them. Otherwise I need to think about it. Keeping my hard earned coins for many months with a third party scares me, even if the site is quite trusted by the community. For me, it is a red flag. If I want to make a bet on 2024, I would only trust those sites where I can access the private keys to my coins.
@Sithara007 your concerns are valid and earlier even I had the same concerns, but then I decided to leave my coins on freebitco because of the interest they give, and then whenever I wanted to redeem I was able to do so. I also can’t say that leaving coins on sites is a wise idea because of so many scams, but in Freebitco case I personally feel safe to leave my coins there.
Receive compounded daily interest on any balance that you hold in your FreeBitco.in account, without doing anything.
