Would obtaining a hardware wallet eliminate this kind of losses? I don't like this electrum feature which can expose your seed after you typing a password. They should at least use 2fa or similar. I would definitely get one if my wallet reach 2 btc (I promised myself)

I feel sorry for your loss. I hope we all can learn our lesson from that story.
Losing 95 Bitcoin is no joke (though I don't believe it) lol, because that is insane to lose just for gambling, I think it is not that worth to spend bitcoin that many just because you wanted to win back what you have lost, because sometimes, the result is just like what happened to yours, because you wanted to win a certain amount, you lose the whole thing that you have, and that is more painful than to lose a certain amount.

i am so sorry for ur loss really if i lose 1 bitcoin i will kill my self but dont warry u will get more bitcoin in the future just go on Bitcoin allows you to transfer anywhere in a very easy way and allows you to control your money, I think Bitcoin provides a very high level of security if used correctly. so I hope you Always remember that it is your responsibility to take good security measures in order to protect your money.

If someone can loose his bitcoins just like that, then why use hardware wallet? I always thought hardware wallets would not allow a loose like that

could have.... should have.... etc. is of course not going to help.
Can you please keep us updated in this topic ? I would like to know how this story ends and if it's possible that someone (against decent reward) is able to return your lost coins.

Sorry for your losses, that sucks to hear. Do you have any idea where the keylogger came from? Have you confirmed it was indeed a keylogger?
Make sure to always check the task manager when using a pc. It is to ensure hacks and I am also sorry for the huge amount lost.

Absolutely. That's the whole point of them. Control over your private keys is never exposed directly to the internet. The important functions are on the device which is air gapped. That's why I've never really understood why people recommend Electrum unless it's on a permanently offline computer. There are so many ways to access coins on a PC and you can never be sure it's secure. Same goes for blockchain.info. Your security depends on how solid your own machine is. I can't be sure so I don't mess with it.

I am sorry to hear about your losses. 95 BTC is a huge amount and I am sure you feel miserable. Did you manage to find any recovery service? I hope you are able to recover. God bless.

I am very sorry for your loss and I hope that one day you can make it back again. I have barley anything to lose, just a few coins here and there nothing of great value, but even so thank you for the kind advice and we should all learn from this lesson. Sometimes we also got hacked and lost coins in exchanges but not such large amounts. We lost mainly by not selling certain coins at ath or selling too early before they mooned. My wife got her btc stolen by 2 devs that was a total of around 50 btc so it was painful enough. All her life savings plus some.

Wow, that is some big amount for most of people, i can life a happy live a happy life if i have that. Sorry bout that, but i am sorry for your loss, i hope you can get more bitcoin later in a short time. I cant even imagine if i ever lose up to 0.1 bitcoin, and you lose up to that amount, iy must be really really bad experience for you. This could be a lesson for you, and for all of us, to be more careful using a computer, and for the best, use a hardware wallet for bitcoin.

You would've not lose them, if you used MyWish service, that lets you transfer your crypto to another wallet in case you lose an access. MyWish is based on smart contracts and works with Etherium, however in Q1 2018 there will be bitcoin support. Keep that and mind and try it

I'm sorry for your loss. That really is a huge amount . I learned a lesson from your experience, which is to be careful with the bitcoin security, otherwise it will lose it. AND that's really a huge sadness, I'm really sorry for your loss. I think that lesson will help you a lot in life, it will be a costly lesson of carefulness.

While reading topic title I thought it is a fake one, but when seen in Blockchain it proved that you lost huge money. I am not getting why these wallets doesn't have support, whereas PayPal, Skrill and other payment systems had support in recovering money back.
Who is going to store money in such type of wallets when there is no support or security from hackers.
