Hello, is there a way to get notified over email if you hit a block?? It would be a nice feature. Thank you.
Just get a wallet with an app that notifies you of a deposit, nice hash, binance whatever
1) Those are third party sites and not under your own control: not your keys, not your bitcoin. Don't think that is very smart.
2) some sites do not accept coinbase transactions as a deposit so if one is to use one of those 'wallets' then make damn sure they allow it.
curious...when you say "coinbase" transactions, do you mean because the coin has just been mined and is brand new, so to speak? Thanks.
Yes, in the past several exchanges warned against doing that because their systems couldn't handle it. For instance, most exchanges require 6 confirmations before they credit your account but a coinbase transaction (indeed newly minted coins) cannot be spent until 100 confirmations. Exchanges routinely move btc from your deposit address to a cold wallet or use them to payout other users and that can't happen when the 100 confirmations aren't reached yet.
It could be that exchanges have updated their systems but I would check with them first before doing so.
