In this video, I discuss the intricacies of FDIC insurance and crypto insurance. Actual US dollars are usually covered up to $250,000 per owner by registered US crypto exchanges like Coinbase through FDIC insurance. This coverage does NOT extend to cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins like USDC.
This suggests that the safest way to buy Bitcoin is to first move US dollars into your crypto account, allow it to settle (4 days at Coinbase), purchase BTC with it, and then immediately withdraw that BTC into cold storage.
This takes advantage of the FDIC coverage, while you work a limit order.
When it comes to Bitcoin, "not your keys, not your coins."
If you leave Bitcoin on an exchange like Coinbase, it may be included among the company's general assets in the event of a bankruptcy and you may not recover the full amount.
