It’s impossible to find a completely safe exchange or wallet. Even hardware storages are vulnerable to thieves, for example. So, it’s a question of more or less secure places. In these terms, private wallets are surely better than public exchanges. Even reliable sites like secure quadrigaCX exchange reviewed here http://bitority.com/review-of-quadrigacx/ can’t guarantee 100% safety. But the fact that it stores users’ funds in cold storages inspire confidence. However, when it comes to hacks, bhm45 is wrong. There are some major services which have never been hacked like CEX.IO and Kraken for fiat platforms or Huobi and Binance for crypto ones.
