I hope Coinbase gives you your btc when the run starts next year or two.

This. only suckers keep their coin on exchanges. Mtgox. Bitcoinica. Mintpal. Poloniex. Cryptsy. Bitfinex. Coincheck. All hacked, all lost their users coin.

Any coin on exchanges does not belong to you. Only coin in which you and you alone hold the keys, is yours.

Bitfloor. That was a doozy too.

There's room for both sides to be right. Paper / steel / hardware wallets are a great solution. Coinbase can be ok too

My paper wallet has never asked for KYC/AML info.
