Keep in hardware wallet probably the best answer, but another answer if you dont have or dont like hardware wallet or non-digital wallet:

-Dont store your big ammount of bitcoin or another coin in exchanger wallet or online wallet such as web wallet like blockchain.info wallet
-Keep your computer safe from virus like spyware, always scan your computer to check if your computer is clean.
-Make a difficult password for your wallet if you can.
-Be carefull with some phising or suspicious site.

1) Make sure you don't visit random sites on a computer if you're storing your bitcoin information on there. If you are going to visit sites, then either grab a different computer to use or just move your information into a hardware wallet.

2) Don't keep your money in exchanges. Make sure you move your money into actual wallets instead. Exchanges can easily disappear with your money, and it's possible that there are security flaws behind the scenes too.

3) Just be smart with how you keep your money. If you have a lot of money in a single wallet, it may be better to keep amounts split up across multiple wallets. If you can, keep your wallets in different places too. If your money is in a place where a hacker has potential to get into, you should either move it or assume that it can be stolen.

Right you are! This is the best recommendation, and I also support it. Meanwhile paper wallet for Bitcoin is also not a bad choice. Do not keep your BTC on exchanges; at least do not leave the coins there for a very long period of time.

Well if btc or crypto is my primary source of income, then i think it's just right to invest as well with a hard wallet. Keepijg your coins offline would be the best way to avoid hackers getting into it and i don't think we should deprive ourselves with the security these hard wallets provide so its ok to spend a little on them

The safest option by far is to store your coins on cold wallets. Essentially you will have to go to a company like Ledger, and purchase a drive from them.

When you keep your coins on a cold wallet, no one can access that other than you with your private key. If you lose your private key then you might be effed. So be careful of that.

When you keep your coins on an exchange you keep yourself open to a hack at any moment.

do everything carefully and think twice about doing something, hackers take advantage of system and user weaknesses. always be careful in visiting all sites and avoid the inclusion of your private key on all sites except your own wallet site. New technologies such as ledger wallet can also be used to avoid bitcoin intercepts

Well, as for people, bitcoin wallet or any other cryptocurrency wallet depends on the holder. If the holder is not holding the private key or the thing to open his/her wallet. It means that the person who owns the wallet is the person that will manage the wallet well. And it is up to them if they became so reckless that made them lose the money.

Always activate 2fa in your wallet so there's an assurance that they can get your btc in that move,i think also always save your private keys in safe place like do save it in twitter account and in computer.I think to avoid some scam here in mining you need to create other account so even they scam your account still it useless because it's new like also in airdrop.
