You are being a fool. Exchanges have been known to close, be seized, and be stolen from, without warning.

Cryptocurrency frees you from needing to trust central banks/exchanges... so why continue to trust them? Especially un(der)regulated ones?!

At best, store only the smallest amount you're willing to lose, so you retain some liquidity for sudden trades...
