There is no wallet that's your value in your bitcoins and should not charge it to others and do not trust the security of your wallet as well as how you value it and if bitcoin no is lost or reduced it's a problem with that wallet or you can report to their sites.

Its better if you also mention your wallet do you use in storing your bitcoin. If you want to be more secured in keeping your bitcoin you must activate the 2fa mobile authenticator if you are using an online wallet. Suggested wallet for storing high amount of bitcoins is trezor or ledger wallet. It is portable and and easy to use.

I guess you go get a hardware or paper wallet if you are really thinking of having your bitcoin secured. For web based wallet, I used Electrum. I back up my private keys and seeds and write it down. I keep a "dedicated" laptop for all my crypto activity and I don't click anything I find in the web. You should think before you click, specially in your emails, and don't trust anyone with your private keys as well. And I also don't install apps on my laptop. Its up to us on how to protect our bitcoin, this is some of the steps that I usually do to make my bitcoin at least secured. Be careful and cautious and used your better judgment and common sense in dealing with your bitcoins.

Just make a online wallet, they will have your private key stored in a safe place. It not so easy to hack a site so you will have less chance to be hacked.

If you have a locally stored wallet they can easily hacked by a wallet stealer. If you download things on the internet there could be a wallet stealer so they can steal it.

Your wallet has a private key, so you should save it in other place or write it down, using 2 layers authenticator, by google, and shouldnt click on anything or adds that you dont feel right, you can seperate your money into many wallets not just 1 wallet.

Paper wallet is the most safe place to store your coins. I suppose everybody will agree with me. Paper wallet is not await able for hackers, but it has other kind of risks, like loosing the paper or things alike. If you can hold such risks under the control then that would be the perfect option for you.

If we're speaking about desktop or phone then as long as you're not browsing random sites or downloading anything you find in the internet, you should be fine. If you are looking for the best security then a hardware wallet have no alternatives.

Security of the wallet depends great deal on the type of wallet you are using. Online wallets are less secure and I wouldn’t recommend to use thise. But one of the most important rules for every wallet is to have access and keep your private keys. Also, always have update antivirus if you use your wallet on computer or mobile phone. And some wallets have the option to secure your funds, like Mycelium, so take this options, use 2F authentication. And never, ever reveal your wallet access data to anyone, not even to your best friend.

You can be sure that no wallet can hack you as long as there are two processes in bitcoin wallet your example should also secure your google account so when you open the bitcoin wallet you need to get your code in your google account to access it as well you should only know your bitcoin wallet account and not tell others and you should have a phone number so even if you forget your password you get a code to convert it to google account.

The answer to your question lies in how you posed your question-- if you are worried about the hackers, then don't give them a chance to have an access to your stuff! What I'm saying is, you need to keep things OFFLINE, so that there is no way that any hacker can reach you.

Online wallets have their use though-- keep a small amount of your bitcoins online for your personal use. But be sure that this amount is something you can afford to lose.. because, you never can tell what can happen whenever you go online.

Btw, keeping an offline wallet is also called "cold storage" in the bitcoin community. You can find more info here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cold_storage

if you are using blockchain wallet Then
Activate one time Password activation on each login attempt
Google Auth Time based app.. Works like six digit passward
Email login Whenever your account opens from Different Ip address..
Install strong antivirus

If you are using an online wallet I am telling you that your money is not that 100% secures because the online wallet can be hacked by those really good in hacking. Better have your offline wallet, like your installed in desktop but just be sure that you do not download any viruse to your system because that may cause you pc bar down which may also cause your money lost.

- Never use any online wallets or exhanger wallets as your bitcoin wallet.
- Don't forget to make proper backup of your wallet and never store your backup phrase anywhere online.
- Print paper wallet using bitaddress.org github file in offline computer and print it with offline printer.
- Use hardware wallet if you can afford it and if not than save your bitcoin in paper wallet printed with the above step and properly store that paper wallet.
- Make sure that no-one other than you will have access to that paper wallet or any of your backup phrase.

I think most of us here are using online wallets which are having private keys and other stuffs. The only thing you should do is to keep it in a safe place, besides if there will some problems occuring on your wallet you can immediately contact them for your clarifications and questions.

Let me know which wallet are you using right now so i can guide you in detail more about the security concerns. In this world hackers have already made many attacks previously like ransomwar cyber attack and there is no wallet that you can save you from getting hacked from hackers. Don't use exchanges as they have high risk of getting hacked, but you can choose the best and good wallet which will give you high security and that will eliminate chances of getting hacked like HARDWARE wallets something like LEDGER NANO S, TREZOR etc. which are really tough and impossible to hack. I would recommend you to go for hardware wallet if you are worried about security.i am personally using trezor and i am really satisfied with it.

Just don't trust any online wallets because if they will and always will have a problem, online wallets are most likely to be targeted by hackers. Hardware wallets has a good security,
you will need to invest some money to it but by doing so you don't need to worry no more about anything regarding security.

But smartphone or laptop can get infected when connected to internet, best way to store and use bitcoin is to sign transaction via electrum in offline environment (laptop without internet) and than broadcasting it using online tools.

It is very easy to secure to your bitcoin wallet . First time you must create a 2fa verification code. You must use coinbase account or Blockchain wallet. If you use those wallet you can make a good save your won wallet. So you must use 2FA verification code, if you use it no one can login your account. when someone login your account you get a mobile code then you can put your code and login your account.

We will never know how smart are the hackers around us. I think that there is nothing really safe with them and the least we can do to protect our wallet is to make sure that we don’t have our accounts in public. We must open our accounts privately and avoid using our bitcoin accounts in public places.

You can store bitcoin on hard wallet. Please keep private key carefully because if you lose you can not get back your bitcoin. Keep your bitcoin very careful.

Post by: greenpips on October 27, 2017, 04:47:49 AM
Regardless of how you look at it, paper wallets are a very secure way of storing bitcoin. A paper wallet is not connected to the Internet, can’t be hacked, and is not a third party you rely on. However, it is a paper wallet, making it subject to theft, fire or water damage, getting lost, or being redeemed by someone else. Storing a paper wallet inside a vault or safe deposit box is a good way of securing your funds, but it’s not too practical for most users.

Yes, in this situation security on wallet is more important. You can safe your private key personally. On your account you can activate 2 steps verification for more security. Don't click http links and unexpected links. It can cause of hacking your wallet.

If you are currently storing your btc in this way then don't do it , you might have a budget i get it but this real money , btc is now worth more than $6k if you store your btc in a laptop it will still be prone to hacking just buy any hardware wallet like trezor , it's really easy to use and also more secure than your laptop.

Each Bitcoin wallet must have different layers of security and different ways of securing it. But on average, they provide an option where you can add 2 Factor Authentication to give an extra layer of security to your wallet. 2 Factor Authentication is usually a verification via TXT pin that will enter the mobile phone number you registered when you created a wallet, or a Google Authenticator pin that you can install on your laptop or on your smartphone. As a result, every time you want to login to your wallet, you should be able to enter your e-mail address, password and TXT pin or GA pin to access your wallet.
The most important thing you should do to secure your wallet is to backup your private key.

these tips I can give you to keep your wallet safe:
1. Keep your private key wallet in a safe place. Do not publish.
2. Make a strong password by giving a combination of capital letters and numbers. do not forget to record it.
3. Avoid phishing links
4. enable a very secure security feature that is two factor authentification (2fa). 2FA can be Google authentification, SMS, or Authy authentification.

may be useful

for me OP, the best way to secure your wallet is to keep back-up your private key (12 word phrase) and turn on your security key to protect your
wallet specially your bitcoin wallet. and maybe dont store all your bitcoin in one btc wallet address. make it more and keep the key (12 word phrase) to full control your wallet. dont trust anybody or any sites that requiring private key or never fill up any form that requires your private key and password, most of the other sites that offers a good to be true return are pishing sites so aware on that.

What bitcoin wallet do you use? To secure your Bitcoins do not use any Bitcoin online wallets even they have good reputation or wallets that are provided by exchanges because they also know what is your private key, the best way to secure Bitcoins is to go for offline wallets such as hardware wallet if you can afford them but if you can't you can use desktop wallet as an alternative in a non virus/malware infected personal computer and also always keep your wallet software updated. The last thing is do not entrust your private key to other people.

there are some easy steps to secure our wallet which is there are no one can manage just only the owner who setup the wallet. If you worrying about that problem just chosse wallet that has a two factors authentication and private key to keep safe your funds. I suggest also to search if the wallet has a good feedback or rate to avoid phising wallet cause now adays there are some stupid people cloning some wallet around the internet  so put some time to read some good feedback.  Best regards

Securing your bitcoin wallet is just like securing your wallet in the public. Let say your money is on a safe. Your private key in your wallet is just like the password in your safe. Are you going to give the password in your safe in order for people to steal your money? Of course not. So take good care of your private keys. And try to get a bitcoin wallet that have private key for protection.

Just store your bitcoins on a wallet where you are holding the private keys. And to be secured you can use a hardware wallet like trezor or ledger nano s. Still there is a risk even you'll hold those bitcoins in hardware wallet because you might forget it or misplace it when you don't know where you have put it. But in terms of security of hackers, you are totally safe and you don't have to worry about it.

That's why having different kinds of wallet depends on its user or the owner, you're the one whos going to blame once your funds on that wallet lost, all wallet you choose have its own risk, but for security purpose hardware wallet is always the best. That's why backup is always a must. Even your device lost once you have mobile wallet or hardware you can recover it with the backup you made.

Start making paper or cold storage wallets and place your savings there. Activate it only once a month to deposit coins there from your online wallet. Make sure you use a VPN on a secured line just to be sure. Also make sure that no one is around when you transact. Get yourself a ledger to and placr your offline wallets there. Handwritings are unhackable.

I never had any problems with blockchain as they provide everything to secure your wallet like 2fa, email authorization but if need more secure wallet then you can use hardware or paper wallet or get a desktop wallet like electrum but remember you need to have your computer virus free so get a known antivirus software and update it regularly to avoid problems.

-Make sure that you check everything about your vendors.
-Use your own computer when doing transactions.
-Do not keep your wallet address and its private key at the same location.
-Use an updated online wallet software.
-If possible, use multiple wallets.
-Always have a backup of your wallet in an offline drive.

As a digital currency, your bitcoin wallet security should be on the top of your priority lists when it comes to using and owning them, you should know that its transactions are irreversible and publicly recorded, If you worry about personal information, you’re rest assured that it is untraceable and secured.

The best way is to stay away from hackers use cold Wallet. while isolating them to the internet, it is absolutely safe unless you lose wallet. with the online wallet now I see security is better and I'm using it.

What wallet are you using? To be sure you have to have full control on your wallet, you must enable 2FA, save the private key, and also save the word of seed. That way I feel your wallet is safe because you already have full control on your wallet.

Hacker and scammer are always there we didnt avoid them because they want to get a many money they dont have concern to many because have to their self only. Dont be worried so just make sure that you identity and security was intact to you, dont give to others and in blockchain wallet they have called 2FA security that secure your wallet.

The safest way is to buy and own (and keep it VERY SECURE) a hardware wallet. I'd suggest getting a Ledger Nano S. Even if your computer is infected with malware or keyloggers, they won't be able to hack your private key and steal your funds. The only way to lose your coins would be losing the Nano (or forgetting the private key and losing wherever you had it stashed).

You should never use online wallets. They are never secure and should not be used for storing large sum of coins. Using 2FA you will be able to secure it from your side, but if the site gets hacked and their cold storage compromised, even 2FA won't be helping you. Not reliable at all since the site may go down anytime and you may lose access to you fund when you will be needing them the most.

To secure your wallet you should enable two-authentication factor by Google authenticator or sending code to your phone but hacker still able to hack your wallet if they can hack your phone or wallet private key so I think the best way to secure your Bitcoin is using cold storage wallet. With cold storage wallet nobody can't access to your wallet or touch your Bitcoin if you don't connect the USB stick with your computer.

For cold wallet or web wallet:
1. Dont click strange link or you dont know what link talk about.
2. Generate your paraphase have more than 8 characters ( more security for me is 16) why symbol, number, high case.
3. For trolling, not use cold wallet or web wallet =)) Dont use bitcoin more..

  Using a strong password

Any password that contains only letters or recognizable words can be considered very weak and easy to break. A strong password must contain letters, numbers, punctuation marks and must be at least 16 characters long. The most secure passwords are those generated by programs designed specifically for that purpose. Strong passwords are usually harder to remember, so you should take care in memorizing it.

Just store your bitcoins on a wallet where you are holding the private keys. And to be secured you can use a hardware wallet like trezor or ledger nano s. Still there is a risk even you'll hold those bitcoins in hardware wallet because you might forget it or misplace it when you don't know where you have put it. But in terms of security of hackers, you are totally safe and you don't have to worry about it.

Yeah, but if you lose the Hardware wallet, it`s not lost if you have the recovery seed. :)

Yes that's why backing it up is still the owners job and if he didn't do that, there's no other people to blame with your lost bitcoins.

That's why having different kinds of wallet depends on its user or the owner, you're the one whos going to blame once your funds on that wallet lost, all wallet you choose have its own risk, but for security purpose hardware wallet is always the best. That's why backup is always a must. Even your device lost once you have mobile wallet or hardware you can recover it with the backup you made.

True that all of the wallets does have it's pros and cons and being a wallet holder, user we are responsible on what we are going to do with our bitcoins and on where we are going to store it.

The best way to secure your Bitcoin wallet is to store your seed as safely as possible. There might be some cryptographic way to sign your wallet to a hash function on the blockchain, but I'm not well versed in that so the seed is the key.

2. make sure that website that you want to send and receive cryptocurencies is safe, check the domain twice is the best ways to make sure that this website is clear from phising web

Proper research on these things are already available on this forum. Securing your own bitcoin wallet is your full responsibility.Dont expose keys, Avoid random downloading of files which would possibly compromise and infect your pc and also don't trust anyone on online world clicking links would potentially steal up important informations if you are not really aware on the things that surrounds you.

I guess you go get a hardware or paper wallet if you are really thinking of having your bitcoin secured. For web based wallet, I used Electrum. I back up my private keys and seeds and write it down. I keep a "dedicated" laptop for all my crypto activity and I don't click anything I find in the web. You should think before you click, specially in your emails, and don't trust anyone with your private keys as well. And I also don't install apps on my laptop. Its up to us on how to protect our bitcoin, this is some of the steps that I usually do to make my bitcoin at least secured. Be careful and cautious and used your better judgment and common sense in dealing with your bitcoins.
Most of the online bitcoin wallets such as Electrum and Xapo are very secure. But for you to add some additional layer of security you should use vpn to encrypt your internet connection and run your browser on private browsing to stop browser add-ons from accessing your private data of online bitcoin wallet.

There are many ways to secure wallets. In our country, bitcoin wallets require many types of verification. The first one is smartphone or cellphone verification. Second is ID verification, you also have to take a selfie with your ID and submit it to the wallet developers. Third is address verification, you have to take a picture of something that indicates that you live in a stable place. You can set passwords for your bitcoin wallet and this is one way to increase security.

What you have said is correct, but it is not that accurate what you are trying to say. There is a lot of scammers and hackers of cryptocurrency wallet nowadays. For example is the phising link to infiltrate your information about your bitcoin wallet, the people you though legit at first but the real thing is they are scammers and so on, so if we are going to be naive, then we are going to be a victim of this people.

To avoid that, think first if what you are going to do is correct and you will not regret in the end.

A paper wallet is one of the best solutions because the wallet is not stored digitally anywhere so therefore cant exist cyber-attacks or hardware failure. All your bitcoins are stored on a piece of paper. That can be a huge advantage but also it can be a big disadvantage because you can anyway lose that paper and if that happen your bitcoin are gone forever.

A Bitcoin wallet is like a wallet with cash. If you wouldn't keep a thousand dollars in your pocket, you might want to have the same consideration for your Bitcoin wallet. In general, it is a good practice to keep only small amounts of bitcoins on your computer, mobile, or server for everyday uses and to keep the remaining part of your funds in a safer environment.

Also, a backup of your wallet can protect you against computer failures and many human mistakes. It can also allow you to recover your wallet after your mobile or computer was stolen if you keep your wallet encrypted. If your backup is not dependent of a single location, it is less likely that any bad event will prevent you to recover your wallet. You might also want to consider using different medias like USB keys, papers and CDs.

You may also want to research this: paper wallets are a very secure way of storing bitcoin. A paper wallet is not connected to the Internet, can’t be hacked, and is not a third party you rely on.

Its better if you also mention your wallet do you use in storing your bitcoin. If you want to be more secured in keeping your bitcoin you must activate the 2fa mobile authenticator if you are using an online wallet. Suggested wallet for storing high amount of bitcoins is trezor or ledger wallet. It is portable and and easy to use.
There are some method that you need to follow if you want to keep your bitcoin safe and secure.

They gave us options to increase the security of our wallet but still we do not use that security features, that is our mistake and we are giving chance to the hackers to hack our wallet.
Their responsibility is to secure and they do that is why they put 2fa and send email every time we login to our wallet and you can also add our mobile number verification if you have that much layers of security then it is really really hard to hack.

This is a good idea and I've been thinking about this lately because I thought that its not a good idea to install in your smart phone a an app to store your Bitcoin, same with sending and receiving Bitcoin. If something bad happens your smart phone like its stolen, its still possible to recover access to your bitcoin but, you need to go through all the hassle.

The thing is could be stolen easily. When it does you will just be lucky if the person who stole it dont knos a thing about cryptos and will just reformat your phone like it is a brand new one.
Mostly that is what they do but there is a slight chance someone will tinker it.

Do not ever show your wallet to anyone. The only person that can access your wallet should be you. Try using VPN too. Have a back-up of your private keys, passwords, or whatever that can access your wallet. It is better if that back-up is a hard copy. Print out your private keys.

Hi all, I sent a fraction of a bitcoin through my ledger nano s and found 8 other sending addresses confirming at the same time.  When I checked these addresses on blockchain transaction viewer, I noticed that the main node was for 17BTC. I don't have even close to this amount of BTC, yet all of the 8 transactions - including mine were all originating from this 17BTC node. I also noticed that they were getting confirmed ahead of my meager 0.06BTC transaction, slowing my confirmations significantly.

Has anyone heard of, seen or experienced anything like this before?

-Thanks
BTC

It seems to me quite sufficient to use offline wallets for protection
But if you are completely paranoid, you can create several wallets and distribute bitcoins on them, so at least you will not lose everything at once.

Never share your wallet password with anyone. Don't even show them your wallet. Its better to have some several wallet. By that, if you lose one you have others. At a time you won't lose everything. And never use password or wallet id to any spam sites.

Get a hardware wallet and store most of your coins there. Using a passphrase where possible to protect against the loss of the 24 words. If you have to leave some balance in exchange for trading, always enable 2 factor for everything.

The best way to be safe is to buy a hardware wallet (I would recommend you ledger nano S, it seems to be the number 1 choice in the market right now). If you cant afford one, make sure your computer is safe from any kind of malware or trojan, and that your private key is stored offline in a safe place.
some hardware wallet cost 2k to 4k but it is worth it so you may have now one asset of security then it is now up to you how do you secure it ,

There are some little ways to prevent these kind of acts, you might provide some long complex passwords atleast 10 characters and with a combination of alphanumeric, numeric and even some special characters; You can also try encrypting your private keys; Make some two way authentication log ins; You might also try changing your passwords consistently but make sure to create always a smart passwords. And more importantly you should store your account in a safe place where no one but you knows that place.

I agree, using alphanumeric and special characters in password was surely hard to define by the hacker. But in our wallet using android application, these password are not applicable due to only numeric numbers are required for the security. I suggest that the best security of wallet is to limit the amount stores in your wallet.

Cryptocurrency wallets just like an email, you can give anyone your email address and with a cryptocurrency, you can give them your public address. There is a second part to your wallet and this is your private key. All someone needs to know to send you money is your public address. The one thing you should never share is your private key. If someone gets access to your private key, they could steal all your coins. You may check more information about this at https://www.propthereum.io

If there is no opportunity, then the separate virtual machine with an operating system Linux. And to use it only for the affairs connected with cryptocurrency. To start it only if necessary.

Simply do not tell anyone about your bitcoin wallet. Never ever tell somebody your password, private key, keystore file, or anything that can access your wallet. Save those things that can access your wallet. Having a hard copy of your password or private key is better than having a soft copy of it. The practical way is to convert your bitcoins to real money and deposit it in your bank.

Like in real life, your wallet must be secured. Bitcoin makes it possible to transfer value anywhere in a very easy way and it allows you to be in control of your money. Such great features also come with great security concerns. At the same time, Bitcoin can provide very high levels of security if used correctly. Always remember that it is your responsibility to adopt good practices in order to protect your money.

Any password that contains only letters or recognizable words can be considered very weak and easy to break. A strong password must contain letters, numbers, punctuation marks and must be at least 16 characters long. The most secure passwords are those generated by programs designed specifically for that purpose. Strong passwords are usually harder to remember, so you should take care in memorizing it.

Its better if you also mention your wallet do you use in storing your bitcoin. If you want to be more secured in keeping your bitcoin you must activate the 2fa mobile authenticator if you are using an online wallet. Suggested wallet for storing high amount of bitcoins is trezor or ledger wallet. It is portable and and easy to use.
Simply by keeping your passcode private to others even if it is your loved ones or a person that has casual relationship woth you. Because you dont know him or her. What if he or she hacks it and get all ylu money. Another tip is that choose a wallet that is trusted by many users for you to have secure storage of your bitcoins.

I am using both desktop and online wallets bro but there is no difference in the both the wallet by using it. I think that there is only one issue in both these wallet. Your private key will be shared to the walet providers in the online wallets.
Your wallet will have private key and wallet.DAT file in every wallet you should not share that anyone to keep secure.

The best way to secure your wallet is that, never tell anyone about your wallet, its password or private key.

After that one verification code they will send you in my phone number that i provided. And finally when i input that code then ultimately i am able to login my wallet.

You should not give others your wallet especially your private key and put some authenticator to your wallet so that you have more security in your wallet. Blockchain is not easy to hack so you dont need to worry so much its all in you because you are the user but even if blockchain have securities lets not forget about the fact that blockchain in others wallet is just a database.

I suggest that do not give you password or private keys in other people or a stranger. In this way you can make your wallet secure and safe temporarily , but if the hacker is good that he can be able to open your wallet , i suggest that you find a most secured wallet that is needed verification and strict logging.

The cheapest way is to use air-gapped old laptop which will be encrypted and used only for signing transactions. Still, I don't find this method secure so that's why I always recommend hardware wallets. For example, Trezor is open-source so you can check if there aren't any backdoors or bugs. You don't have to worry about exposure of your private keys.

That depends on what bitcoin wallet are you using. If you are using a wallet that requires private keys then don't save your private key in your mobile or pc for if you lost your mobile then anyone will be able to access your wallet using the saved private key. The other securities depend on what wallet and features of wallet you are using.

Its better if you also mention your wallet do you use in storing your bitcoin. If you want to be more secured in keeping your bitcoin you must activate the 2fa mobile authenticator if you are using an online wallet. Suggested wallet for storing high amount of bitcoins is trezor or ledger wallet. It is portable and and easy to use.

In addition,  in making your wallet, check it many times before copying and saving it. Don't lose your private key. Also create a bootable USB flash drive that has permanent encrypted storage that has Electrum. Set up two passwords for login and encryptions. Also, don't open any suspicious links, it maybe a hacker who wants to stole your wallet.And don't open your wallet in other device. It is not safe.

I've read some advices.
 May be you can seperate your money into many wallets not just 1 wallet.
In order to protect your bitcoin wallet you have to use private key and google authenticator. Do not forget your private key and do not share it with anybody.
Some people recommend hardware wallets, bitcoin certified mobile wallet.
Install antivirus and keep your mobile safe and secured.
 Do not click on any unknown links or open unknown emails. These may be the traps by hackers.

Today, many people complained about hackers, that some wallets allegedly hacked by someone person, as what i have known it is a human error, for the safety and protection of wallet we must put strong password and be sure to log out after used and do not transact and make access in any business establishments like computer internet shop because it is open to the public viewing. You must provide your own laptop or cellphones for the security purpose and safety.

Move you bitcoins to another wallet. Why stay in a single wallet that hackers thrive on. Just go to some offline wallet or cold storage. With offline wallets, you'll online access your wallet with an internet connection and an encrypted password to match with. Nothing to worry about there.

To protect money, it's best to use hardware wallets. They even do not have access to the Internet and you do not have to worry about hacking your computer.
Wallets are prone to hackers so you really need to protect and secure it no matter what. There are numerous ways to protect your wallet, one of these is to keep your private key, passwords, pin, etc on yourself.

Always be alert when attacks occur on your wallet site. Better do not enter during the attack. If you could afford a hardware wallet much better for more secured bitcoins. Also, always check the URL to avoid being phished.
That's true. During all kinds of hacker attacks you shouldn't go on any sites period. Also, it's best to hold the money on an offline wallet, that's much more reliable than on an online one. Especially on the market.

Bitcoin wallet is randomly selected by 256 binary digits to form a private key, and then through the encryption function to generate the address. This generation direction is unidirectional.

It seems that nearly every day there’s another report of a major hacking. And as the number of hacks increase, consumer desires for security increase as well. Blockchain is the model of internet security, that doesn’t produce a fully secure system for users. There are a number of important safety and security practices that can help to protect your private keys and therefore protect your funds.
first it is wise to find a wallet with security measures beyond the normal wallet providers. Some wallets are now using encryption to protect the private keys. Users should always have at least two digital wallets. One wallet should be used for trading and transactional purposes, and the other wallet should be used to store savings and be kept in a secure location. This type of wallet must be a cold storage wallet. In anyway, a backup of the private keys have to be stored safely offline. This two safety tips can help you to avoid hacking your wallet.

  A private key is unlikely to be hacked but it can be discovered in other ways, so the most important thing you can do is protect your private key by not sharing it. ... This is especially true for the Bitcoin core wallet, which contains a record of every single transaction ever confirmed by the Bitcoin blockchain!

I guess we should have to choose first what wallet we must use. It should have good reputation. Trusted by many. And of course, nice security. The wallet we will use will contain the fruit of our hard work so it better be secured. But well, we should not only rely our wallet. We, ourselves, should secure all our belongings. Secure our private keys. Better if we keep it ourselves or only share it to people we can trust. Do not just send it on any messaging apps or social networking sites or emails as our accounts can be hacked. Just have a copy on it. Printed or handwritten. Just don't let our guard down. Secure it while we also trust our wallets.

Try switching to offline wallets or cold storage ones like a drive. I think online wallets or wallets from exchanges are far more susceptible to hacks and robbings. Using offline wallets reduces the time your wallet is connected to the internet to it is most likely less susceptible to hacks.

For me to secure our wallet is we should made a really strong password or you should made a really unique password so no one hackers will try to hack it and the other way to secure our wallet is to take notes your private key so you can totally open you wallet and always keep your private key.

The best option is to have your wallet stored on your own computer, create a very strong and secure password that you have written down somewhere along with a backup of your wallet and then also keep those under lock and key.

An added layer of security like a Ledger is also a good idea.

Hardware waallets are the best ever wallet for storing pur bitcoins safely but it will cost us a little bit.
We can use the wallets with private key is also very safe but we need to keep our private key in paper not in the digital form.And also it is important to keep our system offline to avoid hackers.

The most important thing you should do to secure your wallet is to backup your private key. When you create a Bitcoin wallet, you will automatically have a public key and private key. The public key is a series of letters and numbers that you can imagine as a bank account number. Example public key: 1FP1toj2osvcV2EWjEf7SwyPCRuwTr2dTL. This number can be given to anyone in writing or QR Code to receive Bitcoin.

Yes, this is the best advice to never save your passwords on your browser and additional to that there is a process which is know as pseudo random number generator, I will advice you all to just read about this process and learn how to use it and then set your password according to this number generator. In beginning you will face a little bit of difficulty but later on you will become handy on this, and by this you will be able to change your password every time you log in and no one will be able to trace your account.

You should be wary of any service designed to store your money online.A Bitcoin wallet is like a wallet with cash. If you wouldn't keep a thousand dollars in your pocket, you might want to have the same consideration for your Bitcoin wallet.You need to backup your wallet on a regular basis to make sure that all recent Bitcoin change addresses and all new Bitcoin addresses you created are included in your backup.

There is no wallet that's your value in your bitcoins and should not charge it to others and do not trust the security of your wallet as well as how you value it and if bitcoin no is lost or reduced it's a problem with that wallet or you can report to their sites.

Indeed, I think if you want to keep your saving safe, you have to keep your gadget secure , specially your wallet, multiple ways and people who scam and hacks were rapidly sprouting everywhere in cryto, leaving yoir wallet without your assistance or even signing your account to any computer without even logging it out.

This depends on the kind of app or wallet you are using. Usually the best and safest wallets to use are hardware wallets. To secure them properly make sure you do not store your private keys and passwords in a place where people can get to them and it is best to avoid storing the keys online. If you are using an online wallet then you should maybe try two factor verification which will make you require both your password and phone to log in. Never forget to keep your private key in a secure place because if you lose it, there is no way to recover your coins.

Definitely, Trezor, ledger or digital bitbox are the best wallets to get

otherwise-

Store it in a segwit wallet for better security and much less expensive tx fees

armory, trezor, ledger, green address , green bits , Samourai wallet , core (manually) , or soon electrum 3.0

If you use an insecure OS like windows or OSX , store it in green address , green bits , Samourai wallet , or electrum on a cell phone

If you have a lot of bitcoins you will want to use either paper wallets or hardware wallets

Such great features also come with great security concerns. At the same time, Bitcoin can provide very high levels of security if used correctly. Always remember that it is your responsibility to adopt good practices in order to protect your money.

Exactly the most important thing is not be careless about bitcoin wallet, try to use all possible factors to adjust the security of your private key, we should not share your key with anyone and there are a lot of wallets in market which are highly secured and we are getting to the modernize so maybe in future there will be a lot of new innovations related to the wallets security, so just stay active and don’t share.
