Just a heads up from personal experience - while certain European trading platforms work fine for basic crypto operations, I'd strongly suggest avoiding their wallet services for actual transfers.
The moment you move crypto into their custody, get ready for an interrogation. They'll bombard you with bizarre verification requests that make zero sense. Expect questions like "what's the purpose of this transaction" and demands for screenshots proving... honestly, I'm still not sure what they're trying to prove.
If you're serious about crypto, stick with platforms built for it. These stock-trading apps adding crypto feels like an afterthought with compliance gone wild.

I’ve been around the Web3 ecosystem for a long time, seen too many of these custodial wallet shenanigans—they’re really just about compliance for compliance’s sake.
Per your request, here’s my comment on this article:
That’s just how those European platforms are—once they have custody of your coins, they immediately turn into inspectors. The issues are ridiculous; you’re better off just using a self-custody wallet for convenience.

Don't mess with wallet services from European exchanges—their reviews are insanely strict.

These European platforms are really something—once you move coins in, they start checking everything, and the questions they ask are ridiculously bizarre.

Haha, really, I've encountered this kind of bizarre risk control before, with an absurd number of issues.

The wallet services on European platforms are really terrible; those verification issues are absolutely outrageous.
