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.

  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: Big league chew was fire and crazy addictive I remember cause like you said it was so soft so always felt like you weren’t chewing on enough until you had the whole pack in your mouth looking like an ole baseball pitcher with a cheek full of chaw
  5. N @ necromedic: It was, indeed, and very soft. Would almost flow through your hands on a hot day.
  6. Mom&PopShop @ Mom&PopShop: I'm trying to remember what the texture was like.. I know it came in a pouch like chewing tobacco. I remember it being cut up in strips like shredded chewing tobacco too, was that the case???
  7. Mom&PopShop @ Mom&PopShop: That big league chew was fire tho fr!!

  10. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Whatever happened to great American boobs. I miss those, too. I wasn’t allowed to fondle them as a kid, my parents were health conscious.
  11. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Bubblegum rack? Like, boobies?
  12. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Don’t message people about things like veterinary care without taking care to mind the rules you two crazy nuts. More at stake than getting bad info or scammed, there’s predators out there looking for bigger fish and will step on a guppy to get to them. Fishing expeditions aren’t just for private citizens enjoying a calm weekend exploring the lake for a fish hookup. Offish of offishial fishing investigations may be looking for the best fishing hole and scare off the big
  13. xenxra xenxra: what do you mean "what happened to it"? it's sitting at the store on the bubblegum rack like it always has
  14. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: What happened to Big League Chew? That was some mighty fine chewing gum. I personally never had any, but I think of it often.
