Mildly off topic question: If one had Bitcoin in an exchange instead of an offline wallet, does that mean that when forks occur, the exchange does not give you

Mildly off topic question:
If one had Bitcoin in an exchange instead of an offline wallet, does that mean that when forks occur, the exchange does not give you coins in the fork?
Also, what about PoS coins? Aren't those vastly more efficient than any of these?
- danielvf 6y agoThat depends on the exchange. Some of them do, if the fork eventually becomes very popular. It's not anything to count on though.

In most cases you do get new coins post-fork. Exchange will announce whether they support the fork or not before it happens, so you can react.
