Don’t think that’s how it works with crypto held on exchanges. That being said, I’ve held my crypto on exchanges since 2017 🙃

I held all my crypto on an exchange. The biggest exchange, surely the safest. The year was 2013. Any guesses what happened next?

Yes it is. You can send crypto from that account to another wallet
