Obligatory matching advice: link The full seminar is worth watching as well: “How do I secure my bitcoin?” — Andreas Antonopoulos ▶ this video
Please make sure you take your coins off of Coinbase (or any other exchange) as soon as you can. Here's a talk by the venerable Andreas Antonopoulos on this subject: ▶ this video
Didn't have a multisig BTC wallet before (created one in the past, but deleted it months ago) and I don't seem to be able to add another multisig wallet - only those multi-email-confirmation-required wallets. Not holding the keys for my own coins is not an option (see ▶ this video for why), but at least there are alternatives such as Ledger hardware wallets.
