I opened a coinbase account and purchased BTC. My question is that if I were to make a purchase, let's say from serenity, is it safe to make that transaction on coinbase? Or am I to transfer that to a personal web based wallet before making a transaction?
 
The latter. Never pay a vendor or market directly from an exchange wallet. It's not only bad opsec but also a quick way to get your exchange account shut down.
 
I am very happy to see this post. This is also a topic that I am more concerned about recently. I hope my customers can know this.

Which wallet do you recommend?

I use blockchain. Maybe it's just one of those cases where I learned my BTC on blockchain so I think it's the easiest. I buy in X, then transfer to blockchain. Learned that hell of buying and sending out of the same wallet. NOPE, nope, never again!

Good luck!

I use Electrum myself and it has worked well. I am sure there are other good ones but the most important thing is to make sure to get it from a trusted source.

You can transfer from your coinbase wallet to Electrum? Just wanna make sure, I am still very much a noob at this

Yes - there are a number of good tutorials. Best way IMO is to transfer a small amount of money (yes, there are transfer fees but small price to pay to make sure you have a handle on how it works) from exchange to Electrum wallet then make some small purchase from the Electrum wallet. Once you have a feel for how it works, you'll have some comfort when doing more substantial transactions.
 
i know this is probably a stupid question, but would it be pointless or ill-advised to send from coinbase wallet?

Not necessarily pointless since the coin would arrive but definitely ill-advised. If you search around a little you'll hear from people who had their Coinbase accounts abruptly closed after making payments they didn't like directly from their exchange wallets.

  6. D @ drdrizzy13: @Layne_Cobain yeah man I would be sweet if the whole team was healthy. I think they can make it a series. And honestly man Lebron had a terrible whistle.. When he drives to the basket he usually gets fouled but the refs barely call it. They aren't falling for Shai's foulbaiting either. I hope Pelicans hire Rondo as head coach.
  7. Z @ zdaBa: @raizen banana base a known scam, I continue to get invites from randos to this day
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: @drdrizzy13 same bro it sucks for that series that Luka is out bc I think lakers could’ve made it a competitive one at least…my knicks are looking good but OG is hurt with a hammy now will have to see how that effects him cause they can’t win the championship with him hobbled he’s too important… not sure if anyone is gonna be able to beat okc regardless but we shall see

  18. D @ drdrizzy13: Same here man. Wish Luka was healthy to at least make the la vs okc somewhat watchable. But the other games are gonna be good.

  20. D @ drdrizzy13: @biggiecheese Hey bro I don't think those types of questions are allowed in the shoutbox. I think you just have to look around or make a post about it in the right forum.
