Using an offline wallet to be more secure but never enough when there is a viciousness on mind, nothing will protect just trying to secure as possible.

i am looking into creating a paper wallet or a number of them when I accumulate enough bitcoin, i believe these are one of the safest ways to store bitcoin. i also have 2 factor autentication enabled on my desktop wallet and on bittrex. i like on coinbase that you can connect a mobile phone number to receive a verification number to enter the account.

can they hack into our wallet. There are many professional hackers out there. What are the chances? Also what is the safest way to safeguard ourself?
if for this problem I think it will be difficult, because if our wallet already in the hack it will be very difficult to track.
for handling we can give more security for wallet account.

hackers can be anywhere, and they will look for opportunities for their interests, should avoid opening our wallets on the public internet network or without spending a fee, because it will already hacked by hackers.

Let us not under estimate hackers. Lets open the possibility that hackers may hack wallets. We do not know how much ability and skill they have. Every thing place in a computer is not as safe as we think.

That is right, everything in this place (internet) is not safe so if the hackers wants to hack your bitcoin wallet then they will find ways to do it and hackers are very creative so you might get victimize by them. Bitcoin wallets are safe but the only thing that is not safe is the users who are very vulnerable into different ways of hackers.

can
but it does not seem to be easy to hack online-based wallets, at least the makers of the wallet will do everything possible to prevent hacking.

Definitely yes!
Black hat hackers have been stealing a great deal of digital currency.
Recently, A hacker stole $31,000,000 worth of ETH, from various multy-signature wallets.
The thieves could attack more wallets but some white hat hackers stopped them.
two way authentication might be suitable to avoid this sort of attack. Moreover, don't store
large amount of digital currency at one place. make portions and save it in different wallets.

I think there is a good possibillity that that can happen that is why i would reccomend to use a wallet like blockchain it is so secure that the hacker also needs to hack your phone to actually reach your wallet.

Yes, it's possible because no one is safe from hackers since the beginning of computer technology. The only thing you can do is to protect your private key and don't ever show it to anyone. A lot of articles were already published on how to protect our wallets and other information against hackers.

is currently heavily rumored that the growing to reduce the value of bitcoin, ranging from the state ban, and many hackers who hacked the wallet. I think it's always been a part of us in the virtual world. about the right is always there, and we must be more vigilant, protect your computer from various attacks, by way of antivirus or something like.

Hackers can hack in to the online wallets but first they must gather certain information about you e.g email address and web wallet you are using.
Hacking in to online bitcoin wallets is very hard, it can only be done by professional hackers as you said yourself and most of them don't have the time to be hacking in to the wallets of everybody. I think the only way to save your bitcoins more safer and secure is by using hardware wallets since they are offline, so they are unhackable by any hacker.

Never think safe, remember many stories people lose bitcoin and most of them are not aware that bitcoin can be hacked. I suggest to save bitcoin to some kind of wallet.

A hacker can break into your wallet only if he knows something about it or if he acces your ip, your email or any info that is related to your wallet. I dont think a hacker can hack a wallet that he doesnt know it exist. That is why people are hacked everyday ,because they keep talking on internet about their big amounts of bitcoin they own. The hackers see that and they break into his informations and somehow they stole his bitcoins

You can use trezor or ledger for more secured and safe wallet.
I used these and thank God my coins are still with me.

Well the hackers are always everywhere and ready to attack when they see the opportunities so don't be so sure of your wallet especially those who are using third parties. Better be safe than sorry so a little precautions won't harm us.

Well it werent the first time neither will be the last time we see some hackers stolen with sucess bitcoin, from some wallet provider, this is due some people arent using full resources those wallets provides, nowadays 2fa is issencial to keep your coins safe, several people does store their coins offline, avoiding any risk or opportunity to hackers. Exchanges are always a target for the hackers since they had already stolen a lot knowed exchanges and more will get the coins stoled unless they raise their security. The bitcoin network is a shield to hackers due to the hash around it, but wallets need to keep improving their wallets to avoid any exploit and reduce to zero the window for an attack.

i think not because wallets have private keys that was given when you create a wallet. Every wallet was secured by those private keys or seeds to open the wallet. Every platform has a private security for their users. Hackers can only hack your wallet if they have a full information about it.
