Couple of DNS servers were hijacked to resolve http://myetherwallet.com users to be redirected to a phishing site. This is not on @myetherwallet side, we are in the process of verifying which servers to get it resolved asap.

You should aim to store your funds on a hardware wallet if you can, those are essentially impervious to hack.

I save ETH in Imtoken wallet. Most of the risks that occur when the smartphone is lost or stolen. To anticipate it always keep the private key or jason filesnya elsewhere. so we can still reopen it using another device. With the case at MEW yesterday makes us more careful in storing our digital assets, because at any time we can lose if there is a hijack of our account. So wherever the place will be risky too. Maybe someone can provide another solution.

the blockchain is available we can store eth in the blockchain which is the safest wallet if we have fear of myetherwallet

this mean this now myetherwallet is already use again
or still not recomended use, why you get information about myetherwallet

I hold my tokens on the Trezor. I think it's a safe way. I advice didn't transfer tokens from the mew few days and didn't accepting wallet with private key

Funds cant really be hacked if you didnt input your private keys into the phishing site.MEW itself doesnt have access on the keys generated into each user. The problem here which is the DNS hack where it do redirects into other site.If you are careless enough then you will really put up your keys and will really result on to be hacked but well since you do ask for safer storage then i would always recommend hardware wallets.

MyEtherWallet is losing trust from its community after this second DNS hijacking attack. It is not as trusted as before and many people accuse the team behind MEW of taking a part of responsibility of the big losses after this sad hack. I think we should using Metamask online or buying a hardware wallet, it is a lot safer.

Every ETH wallet except exchange and MEW at the moment. There are a lot of wallets that you can use to store your ETH and keep them safe like Coinbase or you can use a coldstorage wallet like Ledger to store your ETH, it's the most secure wallet for now.

It's already fixed If I am not mistaken but I am safe because of using metamask instead of private key . I will just stay my ether in mew I did not move anything.

I just deposit my ethereum and other tokens on binance because I am afraid to lose all my money . I am using myetherwallet using private key so I'm  a little bit scared .

For someone who has not been able to purchase a hardware wallet how good is use of Metamask in the meantime? Security wise is it way better than myetherwallet?

I store on the purse TREZOR, but recently there were problems and the server did not work. You could not come in and get your money. This method does not solve the problem and it's sad

I think the best way to protect your money is to make use of hardware wallet... The use of metamask is also another save way to protect your money.... Because you don't need to provide your private key in other to access your account... But the most important thing is that you should always check the URL address very well.... Before inputting your information.

Inside this safe wallet just here a safe eth wallet-----> 0xc827136eed17870d7015de513097c0fd4d51d4d6 <prvtkey:i think nothing(edit not readed op) is safe enough to store eth or tokens :) -----

You are afraid to lose all of your money and depositing too much with binance doesn't guarantee that you are safe with it.

If you are thinking that your tokens are even safer with binance, you're thinking it wrong. You better get your own hardware wallet which will give you stronger security.

I'm not saying that hardware wallets are totally secure but the security of it is much recommendable and higher than MEW.

I m using only My Ether wallet.  Hardware wallet is really safer than MEW ?  and keeping the entire stock on exchange is not the smartest option aswell.

Oddly enough I'd say coinbase is the safest location for your Eth as its fdic insured so they have to replace the funds if they lose them.

actually, this is not a case of MEW for no reason. However, this could also be due to user errors alone are easily sometimes directly provide the private key on a phishing site. so I think the system is still safe and decent MEW is used.

you are right, but very few users understand if the DNS is redirected, the user just makes sure the URLs that are opened are correct, not the correct DNS

do you have any updated information? The problem has been solved ? how can I use MEW safely?

We are both using private keys and right now, I am scared using MEW because it is too dangerous right now to open my wallet using only my private keys. Yet, it is too risky, I can't do anything because I am just using android phone and metamask is not applicable with my phone. I am searching right now on where I can store my coins in my android. If anyone will suggest, I appreciate it.

Store your Ethereums and erc20 tokens on a hardware wallets like Ledger Nano S and Trezor and you are safe from them. Ofcourse, you need to keep your passphrase safe and away from internet connection. Im also keeping my tokens and Eth in a Ledger so I dont have any worries for these phising sites.

The best choice is to store the basic funds on a cold wallet without access to the Internet. For current operations, you can use MEW with Metamask. Do not be greedy and buy Ledger or Trezor.




You can try to install firefox mobile. I heard that with firefox mobile there is a possibility to install Metamask.

Our wallet isn't anonymous.  You still can be tracked by hackers if you are careless with malicious individual. Your bitcoin can be stolen from your wallet where the internet reach. Just be careful with someone who will privately message you with a link to visit.
Trezor or Ledger is the only safest way to store your wallet.

I will recommend you to store your ETH very securely on hardware wallet which reduces the threat of hacking like Electrum or Ledger nano(s) is a very good wallet and dont use any soft wallets easily prone to hacking.

That's even seemingly such a reliable purse and hack all the same you can! I think if you really want to, you can crack any wallet, even hardware! When dealing with crypto currency, you need to be more careful and not when to redeem your secret key!

I did not find any updated information my suggestion is don't use your Myetherwallet couple of days wait for few days until someone updates latest information.


Now we don't have any choice, keeping your coins in any web wallet is not safe so hardware wallet is the best option.

there is no other choice, from now on we have to start switching to hardware wallet or online wallet. too many phishing sites for MEW and also lots of attacks by sharing ways. I think MEW is getting fragile.

Since the MEW e-wallet is hacked DNS servers, I think the online e-wallets are not safe to store ETH and any tokens. So that you can consider to using offline wallets instead of the online portfolio, some offline wallets you can use is Ledger Nano S, Trezor. But the disadvantages that you must have to exchange to popular cryptos like BTC, ETH, BCH, USDT then store in hardware wallet.

Yes, I heard about it, still talking about the wallet of the MEB programme, but I don't know. scammers, I hate them because they can do at the expense of other people, and their own mind a little! we are cant belive poeple :-\

I would advise to store it on myetherwallet. In my opinion, the most reliable. But it's important not to lose your vigilance. There are a lot of phishing and methods of hacking with phishing. If you use this purse wisely, you will not have problems

Only a cold wallet, for the storage of fixed assets. If you like MEW, download the offline version. Purchase Trezor or Ledger. Metamask will not save you, if scammers choose you as their target.

Myetherwallet is still the best source to invest eth safely if u keep ur private keys secure and follow the news of hacks if so immediately u can withdraw

hardware wallets are safe to store ETH now a days hearing of hacking Hardware wallet are safest way to store eth for long term hodlers it is best

Possibly Lehman Brothers will be secure enough decision  ;)

Wallet are safe as long as you know how to keep your account safe and how to keep your private key on your safety hidden places. and try to view your coins informatio and improvement or their progress on you blockfolio not on your MEW since opening it often can lead to one wrong move that you can open it on a phishing site.

For safe ETH storage, besides MEW there are many other secure e-wallets such as Coinbase, Exodus. Also, if you want maximum security you should use offline hardware wallets like Trezor, Ledge Nano S. The Trezor will be more convenient because it can store both Token ERC-20 instead of just saving popular crypto in Ledge Nano S.

many ways to secure the ETH address we use. to login in MEW I suggest better to embed the JSON file as it is more secure and free. if you want to improve security better able to use hardware wallet ledged or trezor.

for android or Iphone users can use Proxywallet(proxycard.io), private wallet is available more secure without private key and security level can be added.

Yes, you can stores them in another way by sending eth to blockchain.info, here you can maintain a lot of security measures for your coins. There are many other wallets which support etc but find out the secure wallet and store the ETH.

If you want to store coins very secure its must be at the offline wallet. Because online wallet a lot of risky by the hacker. But thank to Allah, until to day it not happened to me. I store to MEW :) and always open it via JSON file.

perhaps after the widespread hacking of the Myetherwallet wallet hardware site is now the safest way to store it. although the price is a bit expensive but for the security of funds that it has it will be very useful.

if anything is safer than in MEW because I think MEW is less secure and hacked, offline is safer to keep your wallet safe from hackers.

Yes after the case yesterday I started worrying about storing tokens in MEW, except using metamask. I'm looking for a safer alternative wallet.
my friends suggest using EIDOO or imtoken.

in my opinion to keep eth safely better save it on vip it is the safest, and if we store eth in MEW I am afraid if hacker will track purse and eth we can take over.

Does the recent integration of KyberNetwork with MyEtherWallet offer security improvement for myetherwallet? is it better to access myetherwallet and trade using Kybernetwork decentralized exchange?

an encrypted usb stick or a 4096bit encrypted server would do the trick, but nothing is safe anymore in my opinion.

If you do not store Ether safely, you can lose it. This often happens with newcomers who hold crypto-currencies on some web-based purse, usually where they bought koin.

Currently, MEW has solved that problem and worked regularly. I usually only use MEW for receiving Token from bounty campaigns, and after receiving Token, I will transfer to the exchange floor to trade rather than store in the wallet. So I still see a handy MEW wallet at the moment. If you want to be more secure then store at Coinbase or cold wallet like Trezor, Ledge Nano S.

I advise you to keep your savings in any place, no matter how reliable it was not whether the purse www.myetherwallet.com or any exchange. More reliable option to store on a cold wallet, I advise you to buy the Ledger Nano's . Simplicity, convenience and reliability that's what you need!

as of today myetherwallet is the safest wallet in the market and we should keep Eth safe then only we will be able to safeguard etherum

What you do not like myetherwallet? If you have a small amount of investment then this is the best service.

If you are worried about your money, use Ethereum Wallet

we must be careful when opening the site myetherwallet, must be considered domain URL address secure , because the phishing site is very similar to the original. I feel more comfortable using imtoken application, because I think more practical and less likely to get phishing, you can try it by downloading the application in google playstore  ;)

There was an attack that happened to myetherwallet so there are users that doesn't want to trust it anymore.

It's not that they are no longer going to use it but they only want to make sure that their funds are going to okay without any trace of worry.

There are many wallet to store ETH but I store my ETH in coinbase and Mew only. I think coinbase is a safe place to store ETH.

all wallets are now safely started from MEW, Bittrex, Binance because it has some security including 2FA which ensures users have extra security if it happens to you there may be some factors that you have done so you forget to close it back so easily hacked by hackers.

This fault was fixed, http://myetherwallet.com is safe if you use Metamask or Ledger Wallet. And please remember that, bookmark the correct link in web browers is the best way to avoide scammers.

I m using only My Ether wallet

You try to instate firefox close. I perceived that with firefox mobile thither is a genre to instate Metamask.

Whatever wallet we use. It is all prone to hijacking or hacking. So its up to us how we can protect our wallets. Hackers are everywhere so don't bite the bait that they send to you. So that your crypto will be safe.

On Coinbase, it is not possible to store ERC20 tokens, only Ethereum. And in order to get tokens on your balance, you need to have a purse registered at MyEtherWallet.com. But it is better to enter your wallet through Metamask, so that your private keys are not stolen.

You can use hardware wallets to safely store and send your Ethereum. There are a lot of them, but I can name some of them: Ledger nano S, Trezor, KeepKey (with support for ERC20 tokens), Safe-T mini, Hideez Wallet. I think it's better to buy a hardware purse and use it than lose all of your Ethereum and then regret that you did not buy a hardware purse.

I advise you to purchase a hardware wallet Ledger nano s,i have been using it for quite a while and am very pleased. Supports many popular cryptocurrency and without mechanical push the transaction will not take place.

it all depends on the size of your assets and your investment strategy. If you have bought and forgotten it is best to buy hardware wallets for offline storage. If you are actively planning to use the wallet to say the bounty of the companies it is easier and safer operativna the rest at the moment is online kashelek http://myetherwallet.com
The same is the option of storing your funds in the wallet of the exchange but this is a more risky step in my opinion

I do not trust MEW or metamask in the recent time. I am more reassured with the ETH store and its altcoin on the counter of the reputable trade floor is Huobi and binance. Choosing a place to keep is risky. Therefore, converting them in many places is one of the best ways.

I think it is a safe practice to store funds in a hardware wallet. In general, it is safe to not disclose private keys. Everyone should be vigilant and secure their funds.

You should put your eth in mew wallet its one of the safest hot wallet. Or you can buy Trezor or Ledger Nano hardware wallet. And always be careful in using any kind of wallet no matter how safe they are. They can still be comprise if you are not careful about your crypto activity.

I saved my Ethereum coins so far in two places, one exchange place and one place in MyEtherWallet.
My greeting to use the storage so far has never experienced any problems, and MEW I think is a very safe wallet, the most important is we are not personally careless towards every site we visit, because nowadays a lot of phishing websites and we are obliged keep the privacy of our wallets.

You can store your eth or any other tokens in any hardware wallets like nano ledger, keepkey and more hardware wallets available in present market than you can safely store you eth there and safer side you can use metamask for and transaction.

To have the tokens and all I think ledger nano s wallet is too much to use bro. If you really want the legit wallet to use. You can use the myetherwallet to have the fund there are many news it can be hacked and all but I will not accept bro.
Please use the private key securely and access your wallet profit with the address and etherscan website to check the fund on it.
Hardware wallets are really good for the bitcoin and ethereum that too for big funds.

A hardware wallet. If you are not going to use it for some time you can use a paper wallet. Generate the paper wallet keypair (Public and Private). With an online wallet, send Ether to the public address, and that’s it. You can see in my post, how you can make a paper wallet.

Hey you guys always branding the hardware wallet. There are many hacking attack done on the web wallet but none has not shared the hacked transaction to received address. I think that same on bitcoin wallet it will also same as above.

Where to invest on the ethereum kind of question is this bro. Please check the wallet like Coinbase, Jaxx and MEW wallets to have your fund but only you need to save the private key at the perfect place else you need to worry about it.

It is very good that I read this topic! I thought I was keeping my money safe, but I was wrong! Thank you all for such a large amount of information!

I will recommend you to store your ETH very securely on hardware wallet which reduces the threat of hacking like Electrum or Ledger nano(s) is a very good wallet and dont use any soft wallets easily prone to hacking.

The main thing is to keep the secret key in different places, but not on the computer.And always check the website you visit.The main thing that it was not a phishing site.and In principle You have nothing to fear.You may lose your funds only through your own fault

I save my eth to be safe that I know in myetherwallet, because what I read and hear from friends if you want a safe must have its private key which is kept by us alone.
Unless we want trader or exchange btc we can directly list to exchange , such as dibittrex or vip bitcoin.co.id, but nowadays many incidents have been hacked or hacked by myetherwallet account because of the many who spread pishing via email.

I'll try a guess on where you are keeping your ETH, is it on exchanges? Don't store big number of ETH or any coin on exchanges because it's unsafe. There are lots of attack that are happening recently so storing your ETH on a hardware is totally the best thing. You can avail it for few bucks but if you can't, try to save money for it.

ETHER can be safe only in your blockchain wallet because in other's wallet like binance, bittrex, zebpay etc are not safe to keep your Ether or another crypto.

you can create your adresses offline

and aftersend ETH to this addresses

so there is no risk at all if you will not lose the passfrase

MEW is much better than blockchain wallet, fast and simple, enter private key and use it.
There are many phishing sites but if you watch out what you are doing you will be safe, i've been using mew for years and I have never had any kind of problem with it.

I bought trezor(hardware wallet) a half year ago after I was hacked on etherdelta and I feel safe with it. Also ledger is a good alternative.

Use a hardware wallet like the ledger nano s and you should be safe. So far his safety has never been compromised.

One of the safest ways to keep the etherium is to store on a cold wallet on a separate hard drive that has other access to the Internet.
You can still use the ladger, but there are risks.

The only safe place to do so is getting a hardware wallet.. That is best

I don't have a lot of ether,so I still use MEW.In the future, I plan to buy a hardware wallet,i think now it is the most safest way to store.

The best for me is the purse "Myetherwallet". Only when logging on, be sure to check if it's a phishing site

i have not used it as you describe it, but it's interesting too. so far i only save it in mew, but it must be careful when connected to the internet, because many hackers are lurking, i try to consider your suggestions

According to different security levels, you can use a cold wallet to store your ETH. If you are not sure, you can also choose a paper wallet to store them. In addition, I think Brain Wallet is one of the best and safest ways to store virtual currency. This is actually a way to generate the private key. By calculating the user's input to generate the corresponding address, and you only need to remember a password, you can use this password to recover the address and private key in the brain wallet program. Of course, you need to do what you can do to ensure that the password you enter is unique.

because of the many phishing sites I prefer to use the imtoken app to store eth. in my opinion easier to use and more secure.

The safest way is to make a cold wallet. You can generate a wallet offline wit MEW and store your ETH there. Once you use that address, you just need to create a new one to be absolutely secure. A ledger is another great option but not as secure as cold storage.

It all depends on how much you plan to keep on your wallet. If this is a small amount. then you can use metamask, if it is a question of large amounts, then I advise you to spend a little and buy a hardware purse, hacking of which is practically impossible. You can consider the option of storing the air immediately on stock exchanges, but this is not always convenient and the stock exchanges should preferably be chosen top.

From the beginning until now I am always using myetherwallet to store my ETH, so far I did not loss from myetherwallet yet and never been hacked. So I recommend myetherwallet.com for you to store your ETH. But you can store your ETH at some exchanges which are really secured, like Binance, etc..

The safest way is to keep your ETH on the MyEtherWallet. I also recommend installing Metamask to protect against phishing sites

I have got the solution for u: use offline transactions. It looked hard to me before I tested it by manual. Check out "Offline MEW" on google. U wont be regret!

For small amounts exchanges are alright. For those sums you really don't want to lose stick with slim wallets like myetherwallet.com.

I think block chain is the best for anytime anywhere. You may ask here why not coinbase or related volt?? Listen brother, Block chain is your own account and there is highly secured account. It is very much impossible to hack your account. On the other hand coinbase is other man account that you may hold your eth. But it may hack at any time that different times happen but block chain hack i ever seen yet. People maximum time use coinbase because its transaction fee is less than block chain. But if you think for your security you should use block chain.

You're right, bro!  ;) Some of my money is stored on the stock exchange. Every day I repeat myself that it is not safe and it is necessary to store them in another place, but laziness is winning and it has been going on for more than a year! One day, I will do it! :)

Well my ether wallet is still the best in my opinion. The issue that you talk about was not on their side and happens with other platforms as well. It is in my opinion the best wallet out there, and if follow best practices when using wallet services, then such things should have no effect on you. PS i use a paper wallet

Of course you should provide them. You can search on internet for bitcoin hacker. They are hacking and stealing our tokens from high quality trade sites. Also you must protect them. You can keep your coins on your offline base

The cold wallet is the safest because it doesn't connect to the Internet. You don't have to worry about being hacked, but the cold wallet needs to be kept safely, otherwise it is easy to lose!

I recommend hardware wallet like #ledger nano s . Its is safer than using private key. If you unable to buy hardware wallet use metamask. It detect when you go to hacked page

The best option is hardware wallets, Mew is a good option too when you use along with metamask.

I think the place to store the most secure ETH is to use LEDGER NANO S because it has been proven safe and has some great features. but besides that there are also other alternatives that I think are effective for securing eth and other altcoin I think with menyimpannyta in exchannger will also be safe.

Better grab yourself a hardware and free your mind of these hacking issues. With hardware you can equally store other coins and erc20 coins as well.

I hold my tokens on the Trezor. I think it's a safe way. TREZOR is an HD wallet where you control the private keys.

metamask and myetherwallet is safe. always check ssl is myetherwallet.com. maybe u can try offline version myetherwallet? :|

I am very pleased that there is a myetherwallet and that each user is given the opportunity to store all the tokens created on the basis of erc20. this wallet is very convenient and very safe

The safest way is one of hardware wallet like Ledger nano or Trezor, and generaly crypto wallets where you control the private keys are must these days and keep your coins and tokens safe.

In general, before you search for the appropriate place to store your Ethereum, you must learn how to secure your wallet, and IMO the security is very essential in order to keep away from piracy risks. In fact, the hackers are everywhere on the whole internet and they won't always to cheat the users and stealing their money through some bad ways and unfortunately, many are easlity fooled especially the beginners of any field.

Furthremore, I do not advise you to start in the field of crypto without an acceptable knowledge of their  basics because if you are rush , then there is a possiblity that you will lose you money. Believe me, Knowledge is always potential power.


In additon to that, there are many secured platforms  for your funds, and IMO the best one is poloniex,  binance , Bitfinex and Myetherwallet. And be careful before making a stupid choices, and do no.t forget that the scammers are always in the field of cryptocurrency  

I store all my tokens at Trezor hardware wallet because it is a powerful password manager and 2 factor (U2F) authentication device. Transactions and passwords are completely safe even when initiated on a compromised computer in trezor wallet. For me, trezor hardware wallet is the best hardware wallet to keep your tokens safe where you control the private keys.

and how do you think a hardware purse will suit only a professional investor and trader, or can it be used even by a simple crypto currency user who simply deals with bounty companies? How serious is this step to use the hardware purse?

I think if you are looking for a combination of ease-of-use and very good security, then a Mist multisignature wallet is your best bet. The Ethereum Foundation has (and still is) putting hundreds of thousands of dollars into Mist and it's underlying components, so they are as safe, reliable, and secure as possible.
It's very easy to create / backup account files in Mist. In the 'Accounts' section click 'Add Account'. Pick a strong yet easy-to-remember password (remember there is no password recovery option), confirm it, and your account is created. Create at least 2 accounts. Then click 'Backup' in the top menu. Choose the 'keystore' folder, opposite-click on it / choose 'copy' (do NOT choose 'cut', that would be very bad). Navigate to your desktop, opposite-click in a blank area and choose 'paste'.
Now that you have copied your account keys, you can back them up. You may want to rename this new copy of the 'keystore' folder to something like 'Ethereum-keystore-backup-year-month-day' so you have quick recognition of it later. At this point you can then add the folder contents to a zip / rar file (and even password-protect the archive with another strong yet easy-to-remember password if backing up online), copy it to a USB Drive, burn it to a CD / DVD, or upload it to online storage (Dropbox / Google Drive / etc).
You now need to add approximately no less than 0.02 ETH to your primary account (the account you will initiate creation of a multisig wallet with). This is required for the transaction fee when you create the multisig wallet contract. I hope it helps to you.  Thank you.

In my opinion, it must be saved or stored in a safe multiple places. So that in case of any emergencies theirs another storage to retrieve. We cannot trust anybody in cryto world. There are lot of scammers around who wants to deceive that's why we need to be cautious. 

if for example to store in hardware it should basically be able to withstand hacking, and I save it in myetherwallet because all users store all tokens in myetherwallet because this wallet is very convenient and very secure.

There is no better wallet to store ETH than a coldstorage wallet like Ledger nanos or Trezor :). Although MEW is also still fine to use but if your account hacked then you'll lose all your private key and all your token and ETH will be hacked :). But with a ledger nobody can hack your ETH or token cause they need to have wallet USB stick :))

You can use wallet that has application on the phone since one click you will be safely directed to your wallet and you don't have to open the site, one way to be safe.

From the beginning to the present I always keep my Ethereum in MyEtherWallet purse, and I have never experienced any problems.
I really like MEW because the fee given is based on Gas, so we can arrange it and it's cheap enough in my opinion. MEW also has a pretty good level of security, the most important thing is we as users should be able to maintain the confidentiality of our purse address.

I have store my ethereum on mew, imtoken, and Metamask and the easiest and user-friendly is metamask so I suggest you if you want to hold or store ethereum then metamask is best.

Just use a hardware wallet like the ledger nano s and you should be fine. By the way, it's also very helpful because you can store there various coins all in one place.

Currently, MEW has solved that problem and worked regularly. I usually only use MEW for receiving Token from bounty campaigns, and after receiving Token, I will transfer to the exchange floor to trade rather than store in the wallet. So I still see a handy MEW wallet at the moment. If you want to be more secure then store at Coinbase or cold wallet like Trezor, Ledge Nano S.

You can safe your eth on market actually no nedd to safe on mew / another site like that
If you safe on market i think its more safe than on MEW cause the security is better IMO

MEW is the best wallet to store ETH I guess

You should store eth security in your wallet if the amount of eth you can invest in anti virus software or you can store it in cold wallets or hot wallet but if you rarely use it you should store it in your wallet. cold

MEW is still safe to store ETh or some ERC-20 token. Dont send private key to anyone, using Metamask addon to login or Leger nano wallet to enhance more security. And finally, please aware of scammers in everywhere

Just keep your private key somewhere safe and you'll be fine.

I give my preference to Ethereum Wallet (MEW). It is believed that this is one of the safest digital purses for storing the ethereum. Your personal wallet is stored on your computer and you completely control the secret keys from it. It not will be superfluous to write down your password and keys in a safe place outside the computer.

I think there's no better place than MyEtherWallet (MEW), MEW is safe and trusted by time and people

im hold my cryptocyrrencys at cold wallet, looks like a USB flash drive, I think it's a safe method!
and metamask is good to!

Under normal circumstances (when not trading), try to put your cryptocurrency in the cold wallet, this is the safest way! Because no hacker can invade your cold wallet!

you can store ethereum in a secure wallet like myetherwallet and some other wallets, but for now I still use myetherwallet to store my ethereum assets, because I think of all the safest existing ethereum wallets only in myetherwallet.

you can store your ethereum in your hardware wallet it is the safest wallet in my opinion,but I always keep my ethereum in imtoken or eidoo wallet and so far I have never lost my ethereum and hopefully it never happened.

my advice should you put your ethereum assets in the safest wallet like myetherwallet, I have kept all the assets I have in myetherwallet and it seems myetherwallet is very safe to use, and note the wallet link before using it do not get phishing.

Any wallet which is secured with the private key means those wallets are really good at having bitcoin or ethereum or any other coins mate. Please check the MEW or any other web wallet as well but confirm that your wallet is private key secured one or not.

If you find the wallet secured well you can activate the 2 factor authentication and make it more secured.
For best security you can have Ledger nano wallet it keep that fund more safer bro.

MEW is not a really safe place to store ETH anymore :). There are so many hackers out there and seem like MEW is not something too difficult for them to hack that is the reason why MEW was hacked months ago and thousands of ETH was stolen from MEW. At the moment I think hardware wallet is the best option nobody can hack your ETH if they don't have Wallet USB stick :)

I think MyEtherWallet has a pretty good level of security, the most important thing to keep our wallet always safe is to always keep the privacy of the wallet, never give it to anyone, and always be careful of all the sites we open.

Again this is why i always recommend that once you have any sort of decent money in crypto the first thing you should buy is a hardware wallet. It is very convenient and very easy to use and give you massive peace of mind. The best hardware wallet are Trezor and Ledger nano. Both are very good though the ledger has an advantage with a significantly larger number of alt coin being supported by it.

Etherum can be stored blockchain.info it quite safe with two factor security. But mostly etherum can be stored safely in IM token wallet if the private was not disclosed to second patties

If you are holding big fund then buy a hardware wallet ,never go for client wallet but if you have small fund then you can store private key safety offline or in some locker app.but going for hardware wallet is the best choice to do.

Anyway, the hardware wallet has very good features and security. But I still trust myetherwallet, because if you are careful and fulfill all the conditions for a secure entrance, then your funds will be secure.

Very safe for storage of funds, of course, with the observance of elementary security

There are lots of means to secure your funds..... But still yet the safety of all is up to you. Mew wallet is also secure if you don't give out your private key on phishing site. So you need to be extra careful.... For more security I think hardware will be one of the best options.

I think it's safe to store Eth on hardware wallets such as Ledger Wallet, there are some other ways too but that its advisable to use a tool that is well understood and can be used with confidence.

That's why the best place to store your cryptocurrencies is on hardware wallets such as ledger or trezor. Don't hesitate to get yourself one,online wallets are vulnerable to all kinds of attacks now adays

yes you are right I used to use myetherwallet to send and store ethereum along with some erc20 tokens that work together and created from smart contract ethereum because by storing it in myetherwallet I think it is very safe and comfortable.

You should store bitcon or ethreum in the wallet that will be safe for you as well as the coin that will store and potentially secure transactions for you. i think it save

There is no complete safety, you can not be 100% sure of anything. But you can follow security measures, thanks to which the protection of your money will become more reliable. Use purses of cold storage, use licensed antiviruses, carefully monitor the settings of the router.

I advise you to store on myetherwallet, although it is everyone's business!!!

The safest place for this is LEDGER. I keep all the coin here. I'm comfortable inside. I sleep comfortably in the evening. I suggest you buy LEDGER. We can not trust the stock exchange.

it's just question between convenience and safety: u may use a full wallet which is more secure or some online (mew) service.

The best place to store any crypto currency will be a hardware wallet like Ledger Nano or Trezor . If you want to be more safe then buy two ledger nano S and save them in two different locations so that in-case there are any natural calamities you can still have your back up copy  :)
Stay safe and good luck .

If you do not want to do ETH trading then use hardware wallet to hold ETH I think is the safest. In addition, investors can also keep ETH on Metamash and mycrypto.com, which are encouraged to use to keep ETH and ERC20-based coins.

Hardware wallets like Trezor and Ledger Nano are one of the safest to store Ethereum and ERC20 token. You will own your private keys and it is almost impossible to hack them.

you can safely send your balance ethereum in a safe wallet in my opinion the most secure wallet for now is myetherwallet, so far I use myetherwallet very safe and comfortable.

you can use hardwallet or metamask extention for the safety. using scam myetherwallet website metamask ditect that website is scam. and it never gives you private key to anyone. safest thing is use hardware wallet . without your permission no one can access your wallet

don't forget recent dns attacks on mew. there were many victims.

I don't think this is a fault of My Ether Wallet as they have no control over the hijacked DNS Servers. However, the best place to keep our ETH and Tokens safe remains the hardware wallet. Hackers are improving in their ways of accessing digital wallets and stealing tokens, hence an hardware wallet could be safe enough.

One of the safest way of storing crypto assets, as mentioned before, would be hardware wallet like Trezor and Ledger Nano. Holding private keys is a priority and that must be the first goal for safe holding ethereum.

for now I still trust myetherwallet to store my ethereum assets, myetherwallet can also be used to store some other tokens that have smart contract ethereum cooperation.

I use Ledger hardware wallet. But I also use MEW. It's simple and convenient to use. And for the safety and security of coins in our wallet we must try to follow simple rules: don't go on suspicious links, don't tell anyone your private key. I honestly don't understand who is sharing such sensitive information, with whom and for what. Maybe only with relatives.

Until now I no need any hardware wallet but my ETH and tokens in my MEW are still fine. The problem is that you guys need to keep privatekey safe at first and don't forget to bookmark MEW website to avoid accessing to a fake MEW website. I've used MEW since last year until now and everything is still fine except ETH transaction is increasing day by day :)).

I usually use Myetherwallet to store my ETH. I have not had a problem with hackers ever using it. But if you want more safety. It is best to buy and use  Ledger nano s. This will ensure absolute safety for your ETH as well as other coins

You can search on internet for bitcoin hacker. They are hacking and stealing our tokens from high quality trade sites. Also you must protect them. You can keep your coins on your offline base!!!

You need to store your ETH in some hardware wallet of you want to keep them secure as online wallets are prone to hacks. MEW is now losing trust because of hacks and investors loosing money.Ledger,Trezor,Electrum are one of the best wallets to secure your coins.You can also try exchanges like Coinbase or Binance as they are also best for it.

myetherwallet, trezor, or even at coinbase
they are all safe there as long as you are not sharing anything to anyone with your privacy to access the wallet/

I think the purse MEW or wallet on the big exchanges and prestige as Bittrex. I usually hold 50% ETH in my wallet MEW and 50% in the exchange. I think that is an effective method. We can just hold and can trade at any time

currently I just use my etherwallet to store my coins and until now I feel safe and comfortable as long as I do not give my private key to others and I hope the problems in my etherwallet can be fixed soon

I think that it's best to keep the Ethereum in the MEW or in an hardware wallets. Therefore, if you have a lot of ETH, hakers can find out about it..

If you have more ETH,Use a hardware wallet like ledger nano s. But no one 100% secure. ::)

When we want our ethereum funds to be secured, I think it is good to stock them on the crypto exchanges where/which requires 2FA code or other confirmation process before requesting deposits or withdrawals. In this case, we can assure that our ethereum is safe unless the hackers have the code for confirmation but if not, our ether and other altcoins are safe.

Most people who use MEW are to store tokens obtained from bounty campaign, airdrop or keeping up of ICO project. In general they store ETH disebuah exchange or on local exchange. In terms of security MEW has a strong security system, because it has private keys that are hard to find by hackers, but hackers have a little gap through phishing web.

A glance phishing web has the exact same features with the original site MEW is what causes many people who are deceived and make all tokens they have lost. Howver, I read a lot of information to avoid phishing web by way of bookmarking MEW site, like what you say. So that when I log to MEW site can always be ascertained that the site is not a fake MEW site.

if you use myetherwallet should be careful because there are many cases of theft by hackers that often occur on the wallet mew.
because I think the system applied is still less than the number of phishing that occurred late this.

For me the only wallet that i know is myetherwallet. This is my safest online wallet for me because i store my ethereum there and luckily it did not lost since i started doing this crypto work. I hope there will be no problem in storing our ethereum in this wallet. But in order to avoid hacking our wallet, we need to keep secretly our private keys. That is the most important thing to do.

I think you can keep your ethereum safely in myetherwallet wallet because I think the safest is myetherwallet, but if you still doubt you may be able to see from others' suggestions.

The safest way to store your Ether, is to use hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor. With a hardware wallet, you will always need this hardware to access your Ether, making it more secure.

MEW often do phishing sites. It is necessary to check every time the name of the site in the address bar. To avoid getting caught by scammers.

I do not think that you use the etherium purse every day for your actions and at the same time use different technical means. so for a long time already in your device should be saved the correct link myetherwallet, which you must trust and constantly use it.

The best and safest way to store your Ethereum is to buy a hardware wallet, I prefer Ledger. Your funds will be safe with it)

blockchain.info is a good online place for holding your ETH, i think. Because they have really working IP detection and safe 2-FA authorization. But surely you can`t send any ERC20 coins on it..beware!

I completely agree with you that there is nothing better than a hardware purse. In any case, this way of storing its crypto currency has very strong advantages in safety and convenience.

I have already talked about this several times, for me a very convenient is the desktop version of the beta.mycrypto, they have a cool team that used to work at Mew

You will be able to save the private key of your wallet so ERC20 tokens can be managed if needed. It is also necessary to check some details every time you log in (Be aware of phishing sites).

You can't never admit if this is really safe until you admit you are the only owner of the private-keys. This matter doesn't need a cool team.

Personally I use a ledger nano, it's very straightforward to use and I'm reasonably confident my investments are safe :)

I never leave my funds on an exchange unless I'm actively trading.

I see the security of myetherwallet is not good and easy to hack. Therefore, to store large amounts of ETH you should invest Wallet Purse Ledger. This is currently the most secure wallet.

I agree with you. Recently, we can observe that scammers have become more active and cases of breaking into a purse have become more frequent. I believe that there is nothing more reliable and convenient than hardware wallets.

all those who recommended mew – don't forget that mew is only the tool for managing ur secret keys that are stored separate.

Hardware wallets is the safest place to store your ethereum.  You can try ethereum blue wallet or myetherwallet they are good just like hardware wallets.

I'm currently storing my key file on a USB stick and it works fine for me. You just won't have all the same safeguards as a Nano S, so you'll have to keep track of it extremely well.

I keep my USB on a lanyard with my keys, so I'll always know where it is.

I'm definitely in the minority, but for the majority of people who aren't both technically savvy and very vigilant, a reputable exchange like Gemini or Coinbase is the best place. You have to weigh the odds of a catastrophic exchange hack vs personally losing your key, having malware on your system, entering the wrong address, or all the other ways regular people lose ETH.

For those who are technically savvy and vigilant, hardware wallets are the way to go.

in my opinion to be able to store ethereum and some tokens that work together from ethereum and created from smart contract ethereum you can keep it in myetherwallet, do not be afraid there is still very safe.

There are a lot of e-wallet stores out there besides MEW, which is coinbase, e-wallet is well known for its popularity and good security. Every time I shop ETH and BTC, my choice is always Coinbase. For safest, you should store at hardware wallets such as Ledge Nano S and Trezor if trade demand is low.

The best choice is to use separated hardware wallet. Another option is to buy cheap laptop with recently installed operation system without Trojan horses and install ETH local wallet on it.

Myetherwallet is good and easy to use. If you keep your PC clean and safe from viruses. Everything is safe. And you can also use a hard wallet to store your ETH absolutely safe

my most common ether wallet is myetherwallet . it is the safest wallet and most people recognize it . you need to keep your private key , when you use it .

MEW is still safe to store ETh or some ERC-20 token. Dont send private key to anyone, using Metamask addon to login or Leger nano wallet to enhance more security. And finally, please aware of scammers in everywhere

If you are an active user of the computer, then the method of storage in the desktop wallet is just for you. Desktop wallets are very popular, in addition, they provide a high level of protection of funds. It is worth knowing that computer wallets are also divided into thick and thin. Thick wallets - this is fully synchronized with the blocking program. The fat one will be steeper than the thin one, because it is safer at times.

Myether would really be just enough for your ETH to be safe as long you do keep up its privatekey to regain access to that wallet and you don't actively use up that wallet it would be just still the same when you are storing it up on a hardwallet but if you do feel secure with hardware ones then it would be still a good option and its been commonly being used by those people who do aim for long term holds specially when possessing up some serious amount of tokens.

Try to use wallet that have applications and can be installed on your smartphone in this way you don't have to open your MEW to store your ETH, but as for new coins you need erc20 wallet to store them and the best option is mew, so careful when you open the site.

Bookmark the MEW wallet link, use Matamask or Trezor wallet... are the security way to keep your MEW wallet safe. Scammers are in everywhere, please be careful

Get a hardware wallet like the ledger nano s and you should be safe in storing there your cryptos. Currently, it's the safest way to keep them.

u're keeping nothing in mew – it's just an access (to the blockchain) tool.

MEW is safer to me. my tokens and ETH stays there for a very long time already i don't remember it compromised. i feel very unsafe with hardware wallet because i'm careless and i could lose that hardware wallet anytime just as i lose my phones. things that i don't use regularly every day tend to be misplaced all the time or even lost.

I am very worried about this issue, and are turning to using another wallet, with better security

I was wondering if I should switch to another wallet? Anyone have any solution to overcome the problem of MEW, please point me

u're saving ur keys on ur pc, not on mew storage. so there are 2 dangerous moments at least:

1. ur pc safety.
2. be sure mew is a real mew when u provide private keys to the service.

As spoken many time before, you need to use Metamaks add-on with MEW to enhance the security of this wallet. By the way, please consider about the strange email or the link, it may be the virus from scammers to collect your key. My friends lost 4 ETH in yesterday because click in strange link by email. Please careful

First of all you should not access the MEW wallet by code. Use a hard wallet. Move all the coins on the new wallet

it's obvious that he deserved this loss. u can't be so illiterate as a cryptocurrency holder.

If you have a large number of ETHs, then I recommend that you store ETH in a cold wallet when you are not trading. This is the safest wallet! If you trade every day, please do not arbitrarily log in to any website other than the trading platform! Prevent being infected by viruses!

for such purposes there is a need at least for separate computer with a non-re-writeable operating system (as in ATMs).

I still use myetherwallet in combination with metamask.  I feel quite safe.  If you have a large amount of altcoin token.  You feel scared when storing the wallet online.  You should buy yourself a hardware wallet.  That is the safest way today.

Warning: You should not click on the links leading to MEW in the mail, most of the fraud

It's either you buy Nano ledger wallets or you make use of imtoken,  I've been clamouring this time without number that you guys should stay away from mew as for now it's not safe,  imtoken is still preferable

don't forget also about ensuring ur physical security. if someone finds out about ur savings, they can try to take it away.

As soon as I learned that the MEW wallet was attacked, I was very anxious and advised people not to click on the links to my wallet MEW in the mail, very dangerous.

u must at least look at the site's certificate and make sure that u're using a secure connection.

The safest wallet is a "cold wallet". If you plan to keep some kind of cryptocurrency for a long time, it is safest to store the coin in a "cold wallet"!

You can store your ethereum in eth related wallet as long as it is safe, secure and reliable, you can also store it is hardware wallet for better security or use the myetherwallet or metamask but you have to be very care with your private key.

I store ETH in MEW ,and usung Metamask to connect between them.But i think of using Ledger Nano S in the future for more safety.

Myetherwallet is enough. I have used Myetherwallet and nothing has ever happened to my tokens and ETHs. As long as you save the exact address of myetherwallet. And make sure your computer is free of malware. Then 100% you were safe

The best place to store your ethereum is myetherwallet and you should keep your private key and other information very save and you should not use another persons webvservice to view to data. You can also tore ethereum on metamask.

I trade coins on the trading platform almost every day. For me, the trading platform is where I store the most cryptocurrencies!

at the time of bidding there is not much choice where exactly to keep funds, but between trades – a cold wallet is the best solution.

After my wallet was hacked by fraudsters through a phishing site. I only keep ETH on a cold wallet.

a good solution, but u still need to use a reliable pc in order to perform eth transfers.

yes, myetherwallet but I hacked repeatedly.
better to use for storage leger(cold wallet) or MetaMask, its better than the MEW

You can store your Eth in Myetherwallet and use metamask or you can buy a hardware wallet like ledger nano some of my friend they suggest for me to buy that hardware

They are right suggesting about hardware wallet if you have a lots of assets that you needed to take care, if the value of your assets is already big enough to use that service but if you only have decent or not that much assets you can use MEW, you only needed to secure and create extra security make sure to store your private key in a safe place and always bookmark the website to make sure that you won't encounter any problem accessing the site.

If our wallet is stored on a computer, then we should try to avoid logging in to unsafe websites or blindly download some software! If you have a "cold wallet" then you should use your computer to store it alone!

The only way is to limit the use of support programs. and use the wallet securely.

I can suggest nano ledger , almost the best between hardware wallets , And if you would like to use web wallet I can suggest blockchain website website and in softwares I can suggest blue protocol wallet , It is an extension you can get it on your chrome , it has never been hacked yet , But i always would rather to choose hardware wallets like Nano ledger if i want to keep huge amount of money.

am agree with you, cold wallet like as tresor its good and useful cryptocurrency storage device, which supports not only ETH but also other cryptocurrencies

The safest storage to store eth would be hardware wallets , especially if you have a lot of eth. You can also safely store it to myetherwallet if you only have small numbers of  eth.

I hope both MEW and Hardware wallets are the best option to store ETH by not sharing private keys. As long as if you don't share your private key ETH will be in safe. MEW is the best wallet for storing ETH coins.

Storing Ethereum is no longer important, but I would definitely recommend ledger nano s if you want to keep it

Im using myetherwallet to keep my eth and metamask extension Together with some of my tokens its almost 1 year that i already used this and never had an encounter any problems when using this im planning to buy hardware like ledger nano

MyEtherWallet is the best choice in storing ETH today. So many investors and bounty hunters are using MyEtherWallet because they see their safety in that Web Wallet.

I will advise that your use an hardware wallet to store your ethereum because it will be very safe and secure and you can keep it for as long as you want but you can also keep it is metamask. It is also a very potential wallet.

Never had issues with MEW but it's still the best to get hardware wallet.

I don't have experience with Trezor but people who has it tells that its a good hardware wallet. And for me that owns a nano ledger s, I don't have issue with it and its recommended.

To keep us from phishing sites myetherwallet is a good idea to use metamask.
You can try the hardware wallet because that's what I use today's hardware wallet with ledger nano s I have no problem experiencing here. And I know the hardware wallet is good to use but longterm you can use myetherwallet or paper wallet of ethereum I do not say hardwallet is not good for longterm used because the hardware wallet can also be used with other services online wallet as long as you just hold your private key or the phrase words.
We always keep in mind that people are always using whatever wallet we can avoid hacking.

I try not to use it at all and do not store my token on myetherwallet. This is not very safe. I prefer to store tokens on stock exchanges or hardware wallets

It's not the best wallet but its very convenient and popular today.
There are other wallets that allows you to have seed like those android wallets.
For someone who wants web wallets, MEW, jaxx, coinomi are good wallets.

I agree with MEW that is a very popular use but if the ideal wallet is missing out on hardwallets like my use is ledger nano s I recommend this hardware wallet. If you are in METAMASK software wallet or web wallet try it because it is also good for other wallets and MEW recommends installing metamask to avoid the MEW phishing site.

Ledger wallet is also a good wallet and recommended of most.
As I've said as long as it allows you to have seed/private key choose it.
And ledger wallet does provide its own private keys for you.

I think the most secure storage tool for the ERC20 tokens are hardware wallets. There are a lot of hardware wallet and I would definitely recommend the Ledger Nano S

same here . im also a long time user of mew or myetherwallet and thankfully i didnt ever experienced to get scammed or hacked because i only visit the correct website .  i also transact with extreme caution if ever i am not familliar with the people or to the website that im paying with but yeah , much better if we can get a hardware wallet for an extra layer of security . actually im planning of getting one ( maybe next year ) until i sold some percent of my coins .


all hardware wallets are the same and they are pack with solid security no matter what theier brands are . all of them are recomended compared to online wallets or wallet extensions .

I hear the news of the hack too much for MyEtherWallet. I think Myetwallet is not safe, and hardware wallets are not very expensive. I am using the Ledger Nano S and I am very satisfied

I think the safest way is to store it in your personal wallets, preferably hardware wallets. On the exchanges I do not recommend to store as the exchange can Rob the scammers and then you lose money

 - By apparat wallet (ledger or trezor)
- Keep it in a secure place
- write the recovery pass (and pin) on paper, then split this paper into 2-3 parts and put them to different bank safes.

Of course, these steps make sense only if you have a lot of cryptos on your wallet.

I keep on the official purse of the ether and there were no problems yet. The most important thing is not to store the keys and passwords from the wallet on a working computer because there is a possibility of hacking

it's true, bro, because the most important thing is that we have to be careful in making transactions, as long as we use the erc20 wallet to be safe and comfortable. The important thing is we have to save the password and private key

It's good to invest on wallet since we need to secure our investments, since we know MEW is only good as a passage of transaction for bounties but not to the point that we will let all our investment left in MEW.

My opinion coincides with the opinion of most people! MEW. This is the best wallet ever. This is the best solution for keeping your money safe

If you trade every day, then you can only rely on a more secure trading platform to save your ETH. Of course, if you take a break, "cold wallet" is the best choice!

There is a lot of hardware wallet on the market and prices are appropriate in my opinion, people who do not like to take risks should use these wallets. I am using the ledger and I am very satisfied

I think the best way to store ETH securely is on hardware wallet. I hold on ledger nano s and not have any problem with coins from the time i get ledger. But for people who not have hardware wallet will have to check always the site of wallets before enter any sensitive information there. If they afford a hardware wallet then better buy one.

You can store the ETH safely either in online wallet, web wallet, paper wallet,desktop wallet and in hardware wallet.

Trezor is OK,  I wouldn't advise you to use an online wallets it's not that safe,  make use of some hardware wallets also,  use imtoken also

we all know that the safest wallet is to use hardware but unfortunately not everyone can do it and the solution is online wallets like MEW, TEREZOR and others

I personally think that the safest way to store cryptocurrencies should be a hardware wallet (cold wallet), because it doesn't need to rely on the Internet most of the time!

Imtoken is a wallet I use a lot, but if you have a large number of ETHs, then I suggest you should use a hardware wallet to save it, which is safer!

Almost all mainstream wallets are secure, and the main reason for making your wallet unsafe is our own, such as logging into unfamiliar websites, downloading software we don't know, or placing private keys in some software.
