Title: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: honeyduckgoose on January 20, 2018, 07:45:06 PM
Hello all,

I am looking to store ETH in a wallet, what would you suggest is the best and safest way to do this? I am considering buying a trezor as well for extra protection. I am simply looking to hodl ETH.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I use MyEtherWallet in combination with the Trezor.
You can link your MEW account with your cold storage.

Post by: allanr on January 20, 2018, 07:50:01 PM
Trezor or ledger is best option. If you looking for cheaper option just make an address at myetherwallet site, print the private key so you can open it when you want to use it. Juts dont lose it, cause there no way you can open it again if you dont have the private key or Json file with the password.

I usually use Myetherwallet + Metamask. Also plan to buy Ledger Nano and use it as cold storage for ETH and ERC 20 tokens.

I use Myetherwallet for most of my transactions with Ethereum and tokens that use ETH. I feel very safe with my wallet MEW because I always store my information and private key, UTC very carefully. You should be careful about your property because you are the person who understands its value if unfortunately lost. I also use Trezos purse to keep ETH when not needed.

If you have a hardware wallet, it is the most safe way. If not, paper wallet is also safe.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: cryptomarijuana on January 21, 2018, 12:11:29 AM
That would be mew,create a free wallet at myetherwallet.com and put metamask in your browser,ive been using it for about a year and i dont find any problems using it.

MyEtherWallet today has a problem since they have a DDOS attack recently. You can safely store your ETH but make sure that the website you are accessing is secured. You can look for the https:// URL for secure transaction to your MEW. For even safer you can download MetaMask in Chrome just find it in the web store. It is a extension where you can import your account safely.

Post by: svobodnyi on January 21, 2018, 12:22:34 AM
Hello! I prefer My Ether Wallet + metamask. Convenient and safe access, with metamask you can perform the necessary operations.
But best of all - create a new MEW wallet and transfer to it what you will keep for a long time (etherium or tokens). Try to enter the purse only when you need it and do not enter the private key anywhere.

I use the Ledger for large funds and myetherwallet/metamask with smaller wallets for the trading and so on

It is good: I like it

If you can secure it, paper wallet can be one of the most secure option. By the name paper wallet, you don't necessarily have to print and retype it. You can just encrypt with some characters for example putting up 3 alphabets of your last name at an interval of every five characters from the front (That would be undecipherable) and post it to your facebook notes.

Apart from MyEtherWallet i will suggest you the hardware wallet it is the most trusted, secure and safest way to store your cryptocurrencies. Though it is not free and little difficult to use but a great choice to keep your cryptocurrencies for the long term.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: honeyduckgoose on January 28, 2018, 05:19:37 PM
Thanks for all the replies!

It seems that a hardware wallet pops up a lot over and over so it seems thats the direction that I need to go. Why is MEW so highly regarded? Are there no other wallets that are considered as highly as MEW?


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Genrix on January 28, 2018, 05:27:04 PM
Use Ledger wallet or at least another cold wallet a for big holdings, and keep a bit on MEW just for ordinary purchases if you are active with transactions. It is also a good idea to buy a new computer and use it only for crypto transactions.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: didzi on January 28, 2018, 05:27:21 PM
if you choose hardware wallet to store your eth, thats the best idea my friend
trezor is good, but personally i use ledger nano s to store bitcoin, ethereum and others altcoins,, because ledger nano s support a lot of altcoins,,
i have no issue until now, and i believe it safe  ;)


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: husdemba on January 28, 2018, 05:29:51 PM
My only suggestion to keep your Ethereums is MyEtherWallet. You don't need an extra precaution because MyEtherWallet is safe enough.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: romeo111 on January 28, 2018, 05:39:50 PM
From my perspective and my experience i'm suggesting you Coinbase wallet, coinbase wallet is safest for storing ETH also it's very low cost fee.

You can also check Mist, many people consider it is a better wallet than MEW. And there are plenty other wallets for Ethereum, but I suggest you to use a well known one (at least until you become more familiarized with this crypto thing).

I`m using MEW since the beginning and I never had problems - first I used it with Json and password, then I found out it`s more secure with Metamask so I added it and now I`m using MEW together with a Nano S (by the way, the Ledger stores many other coins, not only ETH and its ERC20 - Bitcoin, NEO, Ripple, Litecoin, Dash etc). Ledger or Trezor, it`s up to you, but a hardware wallet is a must!


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: shirackjs on January 28, 2018, 05:49:03 PM
I recommend myetherwallet, it works well without issues so far. You can use myetherwallet with Trezor for better security. Another plus point is that myetherwallet supports ERC20 tokens as well if you ever want to store ERC20 tokens.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: cryptoadmire on January 28, 2018, 06:32:10 PM
Create a wallet on MEW and the have a hardware wallet, that's safe enough. Then if you want to set it on it, don't access it that much unless you need to.

Allow me to disagree with this, you can say that it`s safe but DEFINITELY the Coinbase wallet (or any other exchange`s wallet) is NOT the safest wallet for storing ETH! Being a centralized wallet, you can never truly say that the funds deposited there are yours since the exchange can freeze your funds or the exchange can be hacked (just this week the Japanese exchange Coincheck was hacked and lost more than $400 Million of its clients, also don`t forget about Mt. Gox, another hacked exchange).


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Spaffin on January 28, 2018, 06:58:53 PM
I consider the most simple, easy to use and safe wallet MyEtherWallet. Without the need to try not to use the secret key, and if it is necessary to check the information on the receipt of coins, then I scan it with the help of etherscan. io
It's pretty safe for the wallet itself.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Singwala on January 28, 2018, 07:17:25 PM
If you really want a safe place for your Ethereum. It would be nice if you put it in the wallet that you hold your private key. And Myetherwallet is the best possible place to store your ethereum. Because you hold your private key here and you can link it to Trezor or Ledger walllet to make your lock more solid!


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: jimsteel on January 28, 2018, 07:29:23 PM
Invest into a hardware wallet, it is by far the best thing to do if you are going to be storing more than what $100 dollars?

Stick with MEW it is a great system and simple. I find the more complex a wallet, the more issues you get.

It is the fact, that the most safe method is to use a hardware wallet like Trezor or Ledger. Then you just need to secure your hardware wallet and your passwords.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: emmybd on January 28, 2018, 07:39:37 PM
In my opinion, MyEtherWallet is the best out there for Ethereum and it is safe too. I have been using it for more than a year without any problem. I also believe It can't be hacked. Just keep private key in a safe place, don't lose it, or you can't access your wallet. Exodus and Jaxx are also very good, Exodus in particular.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: nelsmining on January 28, 2018, 07:41:54 PM
Use leger to store your eth in any large amounts and for smaller transactions use a mew. For day to day I would use Exodus for easy access, just keep it small.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH

Ledger Nano S with MyEtherWallet is what I use and I highly recommend it.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: hoodi on January 28, 2018, 07:45:18 PM
Metamask is a solution for me , it is easy to use and very fast, but I am aware that it might be not so much safe as paper wallet for instance.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: kinki32 on January 28, 2018, 07:48:09 PM
If you're serious about securing your ETH I suggest storing your Ethereum hardware. Examples of hardware wallets are TREZOR, LedgerWallet and Keepkey. A hardware wallet is usually more secure since it's considered to be a form of cold storage.



Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: mdzahed134 on January 28, 2018, 08:06:42 PM
I strongly recommendation for metamask because I think it is very safest way to store Etherum.But I use there are a lot of wallet such as-
1.Myetherwallet
2.Metamask
3.Ledger
Ledger is also good wallet I prefer.You can try hopefully it will be best.

I am looking to store ETH in a wallet, what would you suggest is the best and safest way to do this? I am considering buying a trezor as well for extra protection. I am simply looking to hodl ETH.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
Ledger Nano S is cheaper than Trezor if memory serves. I am planning to buy one too and so far all I've been reading are good reviews about their product. The only complaints I've read so far are people buying fake products and untrusted people who already have the seeds of the one they are selling to steal the content later on.

To store ETH or any cryptos, the safest purse, in my opinion, is the cold wallet. You can use the Ledger or TREZOR hardware wallet to associate your Myetherwallet wallet with the Ethereum store. More secure is that you write the 24-word they provide and keep it in the safe place, only when need to trade you may import to Myetherwallet, this will always remain the ETH safe, not be hacked.

You should defenitly buy hardware wallet like Trezor or Ledger. If you want a software wallet, the most popular is myetherwallet and you can add security buy using metamask.

Mist.
This is an ETH-browser, suitable for storing digital coins. Its use is possible only after installation on the hard drive. It takes time to synchronize the blockchain. You can not do without some programming skills at least basic ones. But in spite of a number of problematic moments, storing crypts in the locker is quite possible as well as working with smart contracts.

I think that I like many use myetherwallet purse. I certainly tried Mist, but I think it was made under macOS, but since I'm not a big fan of macOS, I did not like the design. But I think the security on the local wallet is higher than on the Web wallet.

You can use the etherwallet but always check if the site you are visiting is the legit site. You can also use the etherwallet along side with trezor to make it more secure.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Rath_ on January 29, 2018, 04:00:50 PM
I would recommend you using either MyEtherWallet or buying a hardware wallet. Everything depends on what are you going to do with your Ether. MyEtherWallet is fairly easy to use, they don't store your private key and you can even run their website on your own! They have a github repository with user-friendly documentation. Hardware wallets are more secure but they are expensive. If I were you I would choose Trezor because its support is great.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: beachbummer on January 29, 2018, 04:07:33 PM
If you're getting a hardware wallet, make sure you buy direct from the manufacturer and not from an unauthorised dealer or a second-hand one.

Someone lost their coins after using a hardware wallet bought from eBay...

Hi,  honeyduckgoose

The most recommended wallet is hardware wallet : Ledger Nano,
While the wallet is safe to use the internet is MetaMask, the extension of Google Chrome for Desktop

Hardware wallet is the best option if you are worried about security, although it does depend how much you are going to be exchanging / trading. I think the less you do, the less likely a cold wallet is needed.

Ledger nano s is my way of storing all the ERC20 tokens not just ETH. I think it is a good way of storing eth tokens, and also other like taas that pays dividends no matter if tokens are stored on the ledger nano offline mew. Hardware wallets are the best solution.

In my own experience the best safest wallet that can storing is the MEW (my ether wallet )because its only a wallet that contains an ERC -20,and i thinks this wallet is have its own defense system against the hacking sytem or phishing site.MEW wallet have always an a note of precaution when you open its page,so that you could not victim of those phishing site or hackers that can make you trouble of your  asset.

For holding your Ethereum there is no safer place then MEW or the myetherwallet itself. The money just can't go anywhere unless you make a fool of yourself. The only biggest threat to MEW is phishing there are number of phishing sites which clone MEW to steal user passwords and keys just be safe from such sites either use metamask or atleast bookmark MEW on browser and open using the bookmark or direct URL.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Svelto on January 31, 2018, 04:42:21 PM
I suggest MEW, it is easy to use and have all the features you need. Trezor can also be used with MEW easily.

But beware of phishing website trying to scam MEW users. Always check the url and bookmark it.

I think https://www.myetherwallet.com/ is very powerful to be an ETH wallet and some token based on ETH because there use a very complicated encryption, after you create a wallet you should keep a secret key given to open your wallet do not until seen by anyone.

Inputting private key would really be more risky but only to the case where you do have an infected device then possibilities on getting hacked is high. For now i do have 3 storages for ETH hodling. Nano Ledger,MEW,Trezor which these things are really good to use up and its users discretion on how he do handle those private informations away from other people. Its secure as long those keys or seeds arent exposed.

use MEW and metask. It will ensure the safety of your ETH. will not be hacked. if stolen. It is because you reveal the secret key.

Hello all,

I am looking to store ETH in a wallet, what would you suggest is the best and safest way to do this? I am considering buying a trezor as well for extra protection. I am simply looking to hodl ETH.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
I can advice you one of the most inexpensive Ethereum wallets. It's the Ledger Nano S. this wallet accepte as ETH as ETC. Also it use the privat key stored on the device.

I think that the best option for storing Ether tokens is MyetherWallet. Of course this service is not 100% safe, because I believe that there are no secure systems that can not be opened, but the risk is really minimal

create wallet using myetherwallet and import its wallet to metamask, its very simple process
with metamask you can set the gas price and i heard it can cancel our transaction. once i my wallet ever been hacked that was when i used MEW only, after that incident i've just move to metamask

I use Metamask. It is very user friendly and a lot of websites that use Ethereum recognize it, so you can pay ETH very simple.

Not sure is how safe it is though. I have heard for some security concerns about it because it is integrated in browser.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: greenclub09 on February 01, 2018, 06:05:58 PM
there are so many way to keep your ETH safe, the most popular is using Metamask to protect you from dangers, moreover, i prefer using cold wallet to save my ETH such as Nano ledgers, we can keep our money away from internet, however make sure that the cold wallet you recieved is 100% from the manufactor, because many bad guys can use manufactors to implant a bug into your cold wallet to steal your money.

Treasure offline wallet is a best option if you want to hold your coins for a bigger time frame. You can also use online wallet like myeatherwallet which is very safe and very easy to use. you can also use chrome extension of myeatherwallet metamask.

You can use a lot of wallet for ETH , but myeatherwallet is best option due to less transaction fee as well it also support all kinds of tokens. If you are interested in ICO’S then myeatherwallet is right option.

To make more secure myeatherwallet Trezor or ledger is best option, you can use these hardware wallet Trezor or Ledger with myeatherwallet

I suggest to you is MyEtherWallet. This wallet is the safest storage of ether because it can access even through using hard drive wallet like trezor, Meta Mask/Mist, Digital bitbox and Ledger wallet. Also you open your account through janson file and private keys. For maximum security of this wallet is up to you and make sure that your private key is secure and safe and you are the only person using it. The good in MyEhterWallet feature is powered by ERC20. That why it is highly recommended to used.

I prefer myetherwallet also, but I don't feel myetherwallet is the safest because it depends on the user if he/she doesn't store properly his/her private key. Most of my transactions are in myetherwallet and also I use metamask and I am planning to try trezor soon.

I've always used Myetherwallet, but it is not convenient when you have several wallets and you need to enter the password  every time and copy the wallet number from the buffer.
I tried install Metamask, it looked comfortable on Youtube videos, but after that I read a lot of bad reviews about it and decided not to install.
Now I'm looking for a method of simultaneous work with several wallets.

I would say MEW is really good secure wallet, if you be careful a bit and make sure you bookmark it, instead of writing the address in the bar. Also you can try Ledger s Nano, or trazor is also good, but it will cost you about $100. if you want to store big amount, i would suggest ledger s nano.

The safest wallet for storing ethereum is the one that does'nt store on the internet. One of the best example is trezor, ledger and paper wallet. These wallets are the safest but has also a little bit disadvantage if you loose this device or the paper wallet, all your coins will loose forever. But the safest wallet now that is on the internet is metamask for storing ethereum. You can also import metamask in myetherwallet. Very convinient to use. This is only my opinion regarding the topic.

I use MetaMask and Myetherwallet as they're safe and easy to use. I believe as long as you have store your private key somewhere safe you should be good, so highly recommended. If you're willing to spend few $$ I'd recommend ledger nano s.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: Bastime on February 08, 2018, 03:23:18 PM
In my own experience, there's nothing more secure than Myetherwallet on holding and storing Ethereum and other ERC20 wallets because for me I will never have peace of mind of I do save all my ERC20 assets on any third-party wallets and might led into account or wallet hacking.
It's better safe than sorry that's why I never use of plan to use any other wallets except Myetherwallet, not this time or never.

Be careful with your metamask because there are some reports that some holders had been hijacked and the memory was compromised. Seems no more safer this time other than hardware wallet and a safe computer that is virus free OS system.
Ledger Nano S is indeed beautiful hardware wallet that will offer you peace of mind and a full night time sleep.
Soon i'll be ordering my own Ledger Nano S for my crypto assets so that I wont think of getting hacked and hijacked on my android tablet and phone.

I use myetherwallet more than 1 year. This is Ethereum's official wallet. I think it's safe. Recommend.

I'm using Myetherwallet since I started earning coins through Signature Bounty Campaigns, Indeed, it's safe and secure and other than Myetherwallet, I better use hardware wallet like Ledger Nano S to keep my wallet secure and i can hold as many coins as I can.
Myetherwallet is the most recommended ERC20 wallet for everyone, nothing more and third-party wallets although they're promising somehow but it's better get rid of them and try to focus on a single wallet that will give you peace of mind, otherwise it's better safe than regret later.

MEW is safe and as others said that it has been one of the most known ethereum wallet.

But for security when you are negligible about the warnings of other members here, its possible that you can be a victim and your MEW can be hacked.

As for keeping your ETH this will be the best choice and I have mine too.
Ledger Nano S is indeed beautiful hardware wallet that will offer you peace of mind and a full night time sleep.

As my opinion,if you have smaller amount of Eth just  used myetherwallet or download Imtoken application on Playstore or appstore because this is convenient to used and fast transaction. And when you have many Eth balance just used Ledger Nano S, because this is best and safe to used.

I usually use Myetherwallet + Metamask. Also plan to buy Ledger Nano and use it as cold storage for ETH and ERC 20 tokens.

in sending my private keys through MEW. MEW + Metamask is the way to go

To my opinion, to store ETH for long term, there are two kind of wallet, online and cold wallet, Coinbase is the best wallet with high secure, low fees and fast transactions. But for much higher security, you can choose a cold wallet, like Trezor or Ledger, they are the most popular cold wallet on the market.

I think you should use MEW or MyEtherWallet. It is one of the most safe wallet for ethereum and any other tokens. Due to its supreme security and the only way you could access your wallet without your password is thru the private key that they provide. But rest assured that they will continuously remind you not to share your private key to anyone else every time you access their site.

My nano ledger is what I use for personal holdings, but for my holding S-corp., I use Exodus because of the ease of use for multiple parties not near one another. Big fan of Exodus. I've also had good experiences with MyEtherWallet, although its much more barebones. Probably slightly more secure than Exodus though since Exodus has backup capabilities (unless security is measured by your ability to recover lost passwords  :D)

Pretty confusing from your reply. I want to know MEW and MyEtherWallet are same wallet right. Then why he suggest this wallet two. It is simply can't understand it.
You suggestion about MEW is right but it can be hacked when you accessing the wallet with the incorrect URL similar to the MEW's one.
Today I see that one development team member of MEW guys created new wallet called MyCrypto. Hope he also get success.

I think the best wallet for storing ETH trezor or ledger is the best option If you are looking for a cheaper option just create an address on the myetherwallet site, print your private key so you can open it if you want to use it. Juts do not get lost, because there's no way you can open it again if you do not have a private key file or Json with a password.

Hardware wallet is always the best wallet to store your crypto so trezor or nano ledger s is the best one especially if you are only storing eth so you won't have to bother with erc20 token.

Best wallet for thereum would be mew or myetherwallet plus a hardwallet like ledger nano s or trezor,if you really want trezor it would be fine to use together with the mew,for you to prevent your keys from being stolen by these hackers you should install metamask extenstion in your browser you could easily detect phishing sites or fake websites,metamask is an added protection for your hardwallet.

Buy trezor to keep your ethereum safe, it is the best wallet to store offline.
myetherwallet is a good wallet online too, just keep your private keys safe and never forget it.

Myetherwallet is good as long as you don't give your private key to anyone.
You must be very carefull because you might accidentally mistaken your pk as your public address when copying.
So you should keep your private key seperately with your public key/ethereum address.

Safest to store
1) Paper

3) Ethereum Wallet/Software
4) Metamask
5) Mew

Yeah, These are some main options for storing ETH.

I think if you has less than 10 ETH => Just use: Mew or Ethereum Wallet/Software
If you have more than 10 ETH, you should by a hard wallet/ cold wallet, such as Trezor/Ledger

Safest to store
1) Paper
2) Trezor/Ledger
3) Ethereum Wallet/Software
4) Metamask
5) Mew

Yeah, These are some main options for storing ETH.

I think if you has less than 10 ETH => Just use: Mew or Ethereum Wallet/Software
If you have more than 10 ETH, you should by a hard wallet/ cold wallet, such as Trezor/Ledger

Believe me, even when 0.1 eth is stolen, there is not much to enjoy in this situation.
Personally, I use a MEW and store data on paper and in an encrypted file on a flash drive. In addition, I add extra characters to the private key.

I use MyEtherWallet until I'm happy. Say there are wallets safer, but I don't see any problems with MyEtherWallet. The main thing to observe the basic safety rules.

It all depends on your caution. You can also store your coins on Myetherwallet But if you really are not careful, and repeatedly moss light your private key. Then you need a different purse.

I think MEW is reliable, despite the latest news, be careful, try not to visit unnecessary sites, keep your key safe and everything will be fine. Do not give your main key to anyone and do not show who would not ask you. But again, no one is immune from hackers.

I think a good wallet for storing your Ethereum is Myetherwallet because in MEW it's easy to trade and its security system is also very good.

I still use MEW, but i do not want to take chances. It is best to use cold wallet, which will be safer. I noticed that the activities of scammers is getting much these days. Some gave even approached me online with phishing sites and that is why i have stopped participating in airdrop, because it predisposes.

For me, the best, most secure and safest wallet for storing ethereum and erc20 related coin is myetherwallet. This wallet is safe as long as you keep your private key and you do not click on just any phishing link you come across.

If you want HODL etherum, trezor is a pretty good option for hardware wallets, and hardware wallet options are good for the long term and would be great if you combine with the software. For software I recommend MEW.

Trezor is the good way to protect. Mew is still the good place to store ETH and some ERC-20 token. Beside Trezor, Leger is also the great way to hold ETH. By the way, using MEW with Metamask is the alternative way to protect your wallet.

The safe wallet for storing ethereum or any erc20 wallet because it is very safe, secure and reliable. You can also use hardware wallet because they are more safer and reliable.

For me, the safest wallet is only MEW because as long as if we don't share our private key to other then we are in safe. I am using more than a year now and never faced any problem in storing the ETH in MEW.

I usually use MEW on the phone with the Trust application. It is very convenient, because I do not need to enter the key every time I want to transfer.


Title: Re: Best / safest wallet for storing ETH
Post by: batang_bitcoin on August 23, 2018, 04:24:35 AM
the best wallet according to me is nano ledger it is the safest wallet till date try it you will love it.
Ledger Nano S too is also the best for me, not only for storing Ethereum but also in storing bitcoin and other coins as well.
I usually use MEW on the phone with the Trust application. It is very convenient, because I do not need to enter the key every time I want to transfer.
Didn't used Trust application but I'm hearing a lot of people suggesting this.
I might try this wallet along with MEW. And myetherwallet still is a good wallet that's only for free but if you have the opportunity to buy ledger, you have to have it.

Hello all,

I am looking to store ETH in a wallet, what would you suggest is the best and safest way to do this? I am considering buying a trezor as well for extra protection. I am simply looking to hodl ETH.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
If you are looking for any wallet to store your ethereum safely for long term, trezor is also a very good wallet and it has potentials and it is also a very reliable and secure coin. Hardware wallet is the best and most reliable wallet to store a coin for long term, you can also use metamask to store this but hardware wallet is more potential.

to save ETH I only use metamask, but if I want to be safe. it's better to save it on an exchange account. on the Exchange account, install an authenticator or mobile phone number, so I think it will be very safe to save it on the exhange or market account.

Myetherwallet safe wallet.But you must be careful.In my opinion, using Ledger is the safest.I use Ledger.Still, my wallet is not hacked. However, it is safe to use metamask.
MEW is safe if you are responsible the way you use it. But if you are like those people who's been a victim of phishing then you might blame MEW for being unsafe, this is what they say about it.

Ledger or Trezor is the safest so far, desktop wallets as well as long as you hold the private keys.

hdac? hmm , never heard of them before but i see that it came from korea .  based on my experience , korean build is not really durable when compared to us or japan brands , thats why i wouldnt suggest getting them if you are aiming for the quality over the value .  but still , hardware wallets are still the best option when compare to online wallets if are curious about your security .

Theres no such safety wallet would completely guarantee give you out the best protection and as said you are responsible on its safety because wallets can anytime be hacked if you don't know how to keep those
informations safe or away from other people. MEW is the most common ETH wallet and there are others as well like hardware but when we do talk about security then it would be just the same because you are keeping important informations between wallets.

MyEtherwallet (MEW) recommended for all erc20 tokens. Airdrops always requesting for your etherium address. Tips.. never give the private key of your MEW. Keep it in the safe place.

I do not think people are loosing the fund at the myetherwallet as I know. When the people were signing up or logging in they were missed to check the site URL whether it is correct or not. This is the problem for all the time to save the fund on any online wallet.

Since the private key has been accessed manually it may be missed used at the any place.
Next to that there are many wallet to have the ETHEREUM. MEW, Jaxx, Coinomi, Metamask, Coinbase and etc.

almost all ethereum wallets are good and very safe, proven to love using myetherwallet.com, imtoken and metamask never happened hacking cases. those who lose tokens or coins because they themselves are careless about phishing scattered on the internet and also malware that can fully control your computer.

I use ledger nano s and until now it covers my needs and never had a problem. Maybe are also some hardware wallets on market that can help you but i didn't tried.

You can use Online Wallet like MEW, it is save and easy to access from anywhere to the web. The important thing is to keep the private key, not to leak and disappear and also avoid phishing web when input private key. But if you have big amount eth, i think you better use wallet hardware like Trezor, Keepkey, Ledger Nano because it can be made offline so that storage is safer and each wallet hardware device is given a "recovery code", to be able to access the wallet if the hardware is lost or damaged , so the code must be stored properly.

But I suggest you only hard wallet, because you won't lose your crypto due to hack attack
