In cryptocurrency especially bitcoin, Ther's no guarantee your money will be safe here. Except you've learn how to management your coin, you should have seen the last news. About the big bitcoin exchange got hacked, and people cant get they money back

Cryptocurrency is risky since its decentralized but then that's what makes it advantageous also. If you want security, you should also be careful with your information. Read first all the notes and rules left by those who joined cryptocurrency for a long run already.

I really appreciate if you  guys give me some answers

So from time to time someone does something and everyone starts screaming about bitcoin not being safe.
How about Windows, is that safe? People still use it, no matter what happens.
Governments still use Windows XP.

Indeed, it's not about Bitcoin not being safe but rather people not taking the necessary safety measures in order to protect their online privacy, passwords and so on.

Of course the company and management of bitcoin is really secure and free from all kinds of risk and threats. 
The company itself provide a high caliber Information Technology experts that will assured the investors that everything is in the control and they can manage it. Aside from that bitcoin is a strong company that cannot easy invade by hackers.

Bitcoin is as secure as you make it. If you fail to take proper security precautions then you can kiss your Bitcoin goodbye eventually. It is only a matter of time. Don't believe me? Ask anyone who had Bitcoin from 2010 if they have been hacked/scammed I think over 50% would say yes...

I strongly agree that, Bitcoin is as secure as you make it. If you fail to take proper security precautions then you can kiss your Bitcoin goodbye eventually. It is only a matter of time. Adding also my opinion that, Bitcoin security depends on ourselves,So we must always be vigilant in keeping our account so hackers do not steal it,   my friend there who lost bitcoin it all because of carelessness, so the point is safe bitcoin as long as we are good at keeping. In addition, There is an important distinction between the security of the Bitcoin blockchain and the security of personal wallets. The blockchain is secure as long as nobody finds a way to hack the SHA-256 hash function, which is considered very solid.

Yes! This is the perfect time for collecting bitcoin. All wise and old investors treat dumps as golden opportunities of collecting bitcoin. Bitcoin is the one which decreases little bit before pumping hard. Never ever lose trust into bitcoin just because of the temporary decreases in the value.

It as volatile nature which clearly states that bitcoin will increase in value greatly after every single dump. I am not going to lose interest into bitcoin at any cost.

[praveenweera1996]

Yes. Bitcoin is safe but there's some chance since it's been told that everything's today can be hacked. Except it, they have been trading bitcoin since years. So I think it's safe but I can't be 100% sure.

Now a days haking is one kind of bad news for the bitcoin users.Day by day the number of haking is increase and stolen the crypto coin.I think the committee of crypto should be over look about the haking and make the bitcoin more safer.

On depends on the owner of bitcoin or user of the bitcoin if will doing be safe of their bitcoin unto there wallet. But must be aware some scam or hacking because on this day scam and hacking it is popular and doing some of people that they will be going rich easily.

[Adiba14]

Bitcoin is safe if we really keep the security where we save our bitcoins and vice versa if we are careless menyimpannnya then dangerous we could lose our bitcoin.
but if bitcoin is used as an investment I think it's pretty safe because bitcoin has a pretty good security system.

[rexter]

Bitcoin is safe and secure we should not to worry about the security system of Cryptocurrency,we must always be aware and careful when we are using our private keys if it is possible double check where you are inputting your private key before executing the transaction we should not expose our private key to anybody.

[Majharul Saiif]

Yes,Bitcoin is really secure. The transaction of Bitcoin is also secure because nobody can't ban this.Even a government also can't do this. It is really secured. For that,Bitcoin is safe.

[CornHub]

I must say bitcoin is secure but not totally safe, why ? it is secure in terms of privacy and security features but its not safe at all because it can be hacked or stolen. Its security amazes me as a bitcoin user, its like putting your money on your own computer and you have a personal password on it. Secured wallet also gives you a access to your bitcoins and you can easily transact using it.

[popoypalaboy03]

Bitcoin is pretty secure as long as you take proper security measures and never disclose your private key then no one should be able to access them. But the thing is with enough processing power it can be theoretical cracked, but as of now even the best computers don't have such amount of processing, maybe quantum computing can change the tide but it's a long way to go. For now BTC is safe.

[jakoylantern]

For me, yes bitcoin is secure no one can control it. But it will always depend on the user how they will follow the security precautions that the site or wallet will give. Also, be careful with our private keys make sure that you secure it very well. But share it with someone that you fully trusted in any case of emergency.

Now a days haking is one kind of bad news for the bitcoin users.Day by day the number of haking is increase and stolen the crypto coin.I think the committee of crypto should be over look about the haking and make the bitcoin more safer.

Yes off course bitcoin is very secure that’s why banks are also accepting bitcoin and even billionaires are also investing here if bitcoin was not secure so countries will not accepting bitcoin they will never ever allow bitcoin to its people but bitcoin proof to the world that it’s one of the best currency in market and it can help to any country in their economy so in my opinion bitcoin is totally safe for users and they can join it.

[mitabacut]

If that's the case I can not guarantee if Bitcoin is safe or not, but if I still believe that bitcoin is safe, but it can not be guaranteed because maybe the hackers will find ways to make Bitcoin hack.

[normanderecho]

If that's the case I can not guarantee if Bitcoin is safe or not, but if I still believe that bitcoin is safe, but it can not be guaranteed because maybe the hackers will find ways to make Bitcoin hack.

Yes,bitcoin is very secure because of trust of people and bitcoin is very help us because many poor people become rich because using the bitcoin and invest it.for me bitcoin is very secure because i see in my friends theres lot of money come to her and i know bitcoin will help me to and end my poverty and give me a lot of money and the other secure of bitcoin is easy to transact and safety to transact also.

[tamarindbleu]

Yes bitcoin is really secure. no one can steal bitcoin, except for our own carelessness.
The government can not be that easy to ban bitcoin transactions, because bitcoin is the future.

i think base on what i observed and feels bitcoin is really secured because theres a lot of people who protects and manage this and ofcourse the government. bictoin isnt all about the money as a matter of fact it has a big impact in the near future.

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.

[bitcoi]

I know that more than 1,000,000 BTC have been stolen from exchanges and the security experts think that these exchanges are not secure against sophisticated criminal groups. There are thousands of crypto exchanges but how many of them insure your cryptos?

Anyway the big investors know how to protect their cryptocurrency or other assets against hackers and thieves. The word's safest and ultra secure place to protect your bitcoin or other cryptocurrency from hacking and theft is an offline wallet + cold storage. You can invest in cryptos in offshore vaults, fully insured. There are few company fully licensed when it comes to trading cryptos that offer security for your bitcoin.
