Do you know how your wallet was 'hacked' ?
Because if your computer was compromised (and you didn't scan / reinstall it yet) your future coins/wallets might also be in danger.
(And not only your coins, but all of your personal data / password stored on your computer)

The first step should be to find out how your funds got stolen. Because without additional protection this probably is going to happen again.

I am not using trust wallet, neither have i looked at it for more than a few minutes.
But i didn't found any problems regarding this wallet. Their source code is published at https://github.com/TrustWallet/trust-wallet-ios (https://github.com/TrustWallet/trust-wallet-ios).
While noone can guarantee that there aren't any flaws/bugs, it seems to be solid.

Note that you shouldn't store amounts more than you can afford to lose on your mobile.
For holdings which can easily absorb the purchase of a hardware wallet, this should definitely be considered.

They are accepting both ERC20 and ERC223 to have in the wallet bro. Still I am not sure whether they are not scammed anyone in using that wallet so first please check the review and then go ahead to use their wallet mate.
I have share the link below of their website. Please careful about URL in any online wallet use.

To safeguard the wallet you can use the metamask plug in your browser also do it. So check your convenient and do it bro.

Metamask does not protect an application on your mobile. Metamask is a wallet itself built into a browser extension.
It may warn you if you visit a phishing site, but does not directly contribute to the safety of the private keys inside the mobile wallet.

To protect a mobile device it has to be non-rooted, up-to-date and no shady application/website should be downloaded/visited. An AV doesn't hurt either.

I've used the trust wallet for 2 months (just to try) and as long as I use it I've never had any problems but for me I prefer and enjoy using MEW so until now MEW has become my first choice to store the erc-20 tokens.

I recently switched to trust wallet and I haven't had any problems as yet.
It has a browser.
It shows the USD value if your token, if it recognizes the exchange it's listed on.
Transfers are also efficient and cheap.
It not only supports ethereum, also Callisto, POA network, ethereum and a number of test networks, including ropsten.
It is also customer friendly as it has support links and channels.
Trust wallet has earned my Trust.

I haven't used trust wallet but with your hacked is what I'm concerned with. With what you do whether you use another wallet if you are not careful the way you handle your wallet and your computer, the same scenario of hacking can happen again.

You can read these reviews but we can't tell on how many are real reviews in there.

Have read my post clearly mate. Even I shared the same thing metamask securing the wallet with the browser extension only. Metamask extensions are available in Chrome, Opera and FireFox browsers mate.
Using IOS or Android wallet you can use some wallet but still there is no such kind of secured wallet for ERC20 tokens so far bro.
Enjin and Trust only popping for the Play store search for ERC20 wallets. Please go with review and share the good wallet to him mate.

Have read my post clearly mate.

I did. And it makes no sense. It simply contains wrong information:

To safeguard the wallet you can use the metamask plug in your browser also do it. So check your convenient and do it bro.

Metamask does NOT secure a wallet (especially not an application on your mobile (in this case: TRUST wallet)) in ANY way.
When accessing the TRUST wallet (application on your mobile phone!) you are not using any browser. How is a browser extension supposed to secure your wallet?  ::)




Using IOS or Android wallet you can use some wallet but still there is no such kind of secured wallet for ERC20 tokens so far bro.

Define 'secured wallet'.
It is not just the application itself which makes a wallet either secure or non-secure. It is the whole environment the application is running in, the user habits, etc..
Claiming there is no 'secured wallet' is dumb. Mobile wallets are less secure than a hardware wallet for example. But this does NOT mean there doesn't exist a secured mobile wallet (in relation to other mobile wallets).

Additionally would you also consider hardware wallets as not secure ? Because there are hardware wallets which do support ERC20 tokens.

Well in your case it is not proven that the wallet i mean the website is actually hacked because there are so many ways to hack your wallet and not their website. Even if you change wallet or change website you can still be hacked because you are not aware in those hackers always check the URL before going.

Trust wallet is a safe and secured wallet. It 8s my personal favorite for storing assets.it has unique features, such as in app browser. And it support various platforms and test networks.

My word of advice is this - no matter how secure a wallet provider is. There will always be some exploits to that secured software because no system is safe even cold wallets has a critical vulnerability that hackers can hijack your account. The best way to protect yourself and your coins is to educate yourself from this attacks so you wont fall for their scheme's.

I don't see any wallet with that name yet so it my not be that much trustable to store our tokens for long term.If you have Myetherwallet then why you are searching for some other wallet because until now MEW has been the best wallet for storing tokens so you can't get anything better than that anywhere.If you want to increase the security of MEW you can use neram ask too.

Im well awared on Trust wallets existence but im not really fan on using it since i do already been used with myetherwallet when storing up erc20 token based and didnt tend to try out other ones. Im not saying Trust wallet isnt safe yet secured wallet doesnt really exist and anytime can really be hacked but for now we can still used up a service which had been commonly be used which we can find in MEW.The unique thing with Trust is they do have browser which is unusual but out of curiosity you can try it though.

I kind of appreciate your answer guy. Nothing is really safe for storing your wallet, as you know not only your wallet is stolen but also almost all of members here are both more likely to be stolen, you’d better to accept this tough rule of the market . Truly, when a hacker keep an eye on your wallet account, you will be in trouble to keep your wallet securely. Because we all know that hackers are considerbly flexible, well-technologied, they generally try to find all ways to steal yours. Yep, till now the best way to defend your wallet is to improve your knowledge, besides you should be highly cautious.

It is now possible to access the wallet MEW with JSON, which is safer
