The Australia (Reddit) crypto scene is full of newcomers trying to get into cryptos -- that is, from fiat to cryptos -- and they are posting about all sorts of difficulties.
'Coinbase announced Thursday afternoon that, for now, it would not be adding any new cryptocurrencies to either its flagship platform'

Now consider the drama that us GRS folks have had with Bittrex. And Kraken's trading-exchange has been so overloaded of late that the company admitted its exchange is dysfunctional.
And Poloniex? It was truly struggling even months ago, before they shut the troll box.
So, for Coinbase to choose not to add XRP shows that Coinbase must be close to its limits; and I'm suggesting that the whole global network of crypto exchanges is both overloaded and struggling to upgrade Verifications, which they are doing clumsily.
And if something sparks a bear market, people will be running for the exits.
Conclusion: From a security perspective, this is a time to be very very careful not to have too much coin on any one exchange.
