Bitcoin Forum

that if some malicious hacker group hacked into my favourite exchange they can access my personal shlt and even the wallet I deposit funds to everything is recorded on an exchange and im worried that some

some sociopath looks up my address and then finds out where I live and holds me ransom the looney could do anything put a gun to my head there is so much evil in the world and with the recent TalkTalk & Vodafone hacking recently and the infamous dark web where all your shlt is shared and abused any hitman pedo can find out at the right price it makes me sick

there has to be something better than hope n pray sooner or later i fear the exchange i use will be hacked i am very very scared indeed

Your statement applies to all websites that are merchants/exchanges/banks/medical/government websites that have nothing to do with bitcoin.
It is likely all your information is already on the darknet if you have ever filled out any online form with your personal information.

Bitcoin is one of many currencies used on the darknet. Your personal info is already there from non-bitcoin related activities.

wot shou.ld i do then hire bodygard? the most i can afford is between 0:00-8:00 think those would be reasonable times that eny1 would rob a house

According to my understanding, most robberies are actually in the middle of the day when you are not home and most likely at work.

Yes, you should hire a bodyguard and pay them in bitcoin.

Op's statement is invalid on so many levels. Every centralized service can be hacked. Even the best networks on this planet are not fully safe. Pentagon was hacked and data was stolen.
Boeing was hacked, and almost every other service was or will be hacked in the future. Stop worrying so much and keep your coin as exchange deposit only when you trade.

i am hopelessly confused

Sue America for enstating KYC laws

You created a new account to post this?

Put your bong down and have a coffee.

yes, centralized services are quite vulnerable to these sorts of attacks. hopefully services will come out to solve this problem. one such proposed service is instadex, currently in development.

Feed yourself into a wood chipper face first. All your problems will be solved.

I'm scared if I'll get robbed at gunpoint for everything I own too, no just bitcoin.

You must have traded millions of $ to attract such psycho, if you did, you should feel scared :D...
Sorry for not beign comforting.

Being too paranoid is harmful to your health.  ;)

Man if you are talking bitcoins and think that your existing wallet is under a threat, just make a new wallet, move all coins there and you're gone. There are lots of ways to make it secure.

If you're worried about yourself go do some marital arts stuff and go buy a gun :)

The way you talk, we are all under the same situation or maybe you have some extra stuff to worry about?

LOL

This may be all stupid as hell and we are just wasting our times,

OR! OR, this can be very serious and dude is in trouble.

I doubt it, he's probably just gone downstairs to raid his parents fridge.

I dont think anyone would post stuff like that on here if they were seriously in trouble.

Is this a serious post? My god, has society become this paranoid that you had to come here create an account just to post this nonsense  ???
If your not on medication get some. If your off your meds then I can understand why you would write this ::) ::)

We never know what is happening over there. I hope dude is ok and is just messing (more, the one that starts with F) around.

But if not, man, feel free to message or something, if i can be of any help i definitely will. I may not be able to bodyguard you,
but i could give you couple hints on how you can handle stuff (shorter word, which also starts with S) yourself.

If you are paranoid then keep your bitcoins in your own offline wallet and only do exchanges in cash.

Don't be too worry about information being hack. If you are a nice person and did not do anything illegal, you shouldn't be afraid.

Am I the only one or the OP's post seems like trolling??

The same way you are paranoid about an exchange , you could be paranoid about your bank as well. In any way, noone is forcing you or anyone else
to keep your fiat nor your bitcoin away from your own wallet, weather it's crypto wallet or a normal one lol.

If you are very scared then you should not buy or sell any Bitcoin. Chill out dude.

i think i will see a doctor the evilness in this world scares me to death i have done nothing illegal im just buying bitcoins for later on in life when i become a lonely wrinkley old man

Well you can see a doctor, that makes sense. But really chill, you seem to be in danger not more than me or anybody else on this forum
and we all deal with it because it really is nothing.

P.S. part of me tells me that you're definitely stoned (looks like meth) , though another part would say you just found out what I knew for years, so welcome to the club. Its not all that bad.

BUT SEE DOCTOR just in case :)

I think that's just possible.

Buy a guard dog and an AK-47.  ;D

People are very scared to use something they dont understand. They want their hand to be held.

Scared? Confused? Is your name Carlos Garza? lol.  8)

if you have really large amount then you should be scared but why not use offline wallet?

Dude this is hilarious
The likely hood of that happening is low, what's more likely to happen is the exchange will work out that they could make loads of money and not have to work anymore by faking an intrusion and jacking all your stuff

All you can do is forget about the hack thing. The websites you use try their best to protect their users from any unexpected threats.

How's that different than getting robbed mugged shot stabbed in the street, can happen too man...

I got good news for you, bud. Given what and how you've penned the above, there's not a person on the planet that would give you the light of day, let even think about hunting your ass down to take from you what little you have. That said, go back to gaming and enjoy the rest of the evening.

usually hackers are not the type of guy to have gun to your head lol :)

I'm starting to think that posts like this are being used by people that probably have multiple accounts with signature campaigns so they can make a quick buck by posting with their alts on their own thread. Pretty sad to think this way but there are so many useless posts where the OP doesn't come back I'm starting to wonder ???.

No reason to be scared. Yes there is a lot of evil in this world but there are more good people than bad.

pray and hope is not bad

Seriously? Are things that bad?

I'm not afraid, I have a pistol in my purse. I carry it where ever I go. Even places that have signs that say no guns. I don't care, my safety is more important to me that some stupid rules.

Lets see them try and kidnap me.  ;D

I would suggest closing the account in that exchange if it is causing so much concern.  Or if you don't want to close the account, you could just make sure your password is very secure and hard to hack.

hackers will try to hacked or get your info because bitcoin used in buying or selling goods in darknet. you need to be careful next time. observed what are the sites you are filling up. make sure that it is legit. not a scam one or there's no key loggers on it. change your password every day or per week. your password should different from your wallet address and your email. keep it in a place that you are the one who knows about it.

I am sorry but I think you are thinking into this way to much.  First you have to have a reason for someone to want to go through all the trouble to do this to you.  What do you have that would make it worth it?  I know I do not have nothing for someone to risk that.

Personal data could be very valuable goods and can be misused in so many ways. They can steel you your whole life on this way and the consecvences could be very serious.

If you are scared you need to protect yourself try to think how can you do this and then start working on it. Better to do smth intsteed waiting for smth.

when you start being to paranoid you start believe in the lies your imagination makes....
just chill and stop think this things=  "Thinking will not overcome fear but action will."
quote about imagination "Imagination, also called the faculty of imagining, is the ability to form new images and sensations in the mind that are not perceived through senses such as sight, hearing, or other senses."

You can always run your coins through that exchange that changes the address's I forget the name of it now. But It seems like a good idea for the paranoid people.

Are u ok?

Pray that does not happen the bad things that make restless

Dont be scared. Just call the police

if someone really wanted to find you he would have already done it. But why find you? You are no one important, no one care about you and that's why no one has found you yet

Im scared because my boyfriend
Did not love me

I am confused by this question

I was so scared that anyone would want to ruin my family
