Hello guys , I would like to ask this from more veteran people here if MEW or shall we say myetherwallet.com is safe or not..? Some of my colleagues said that myetherwallet is not safe because there maybe some intruders with wide and depeest knowledge When it comes to security bypass could get access of your account at myetherwallet? Please Help me answer this if mew is safe or not.. Is this a user fault to expose their private key or there is.someone could really Access our account .. using security bypass? Please thank you.

Honestly, I think it's secure, myetherwallet developers don't have access to your private keys, which means everyone must control and secure their keys. I haven't ever heard myetherwallet got hacked, just some people who lost their private keys and claim it has been hacked. Even most web wallets for bitcoin seems can not be hacked, unless you are reckless and the private keys could be accessed by the thief. The same theory for myetherwallet, electrum, blockchain, it's safe.

yeah right, Indeed I just want some clarification to those people here that has more knowledge than me .. just to tell this to one my of colleague that myetherwallet is safe and perhaps,she just being reckless not to take her of privatekey .. afterall she s still insisting .. but by the way thanks mate for addressing my issue..

Well base on what i experience of using MEW for me its safe i still never experience any issue of using it from receiving ethereum and receiving token from ICO's . I believe that who told you about didn't know how MEW secured wallet.. So i just wanted to say that for me its safe wallet ever than the other web wallet..

I think it is a safe place to store those tokens and some shitcoins ERC20 from an airdrops that some get to it. Based on my experience MEW or myetherwallet is a safe crypto coin wallet and it would be best if you combine it with a hardware wallet just like Ledger and the likes. There are also wallets you can use to store those tokens you have or get from anywhere else just like imToken and MetaMask they are secured wallets too.

Thank you everyone for answering my question and for how many days that we've been discussed this issue . I finally confirmed that myetherwallet was safe and the best ethereum web wallet .. And you can also make a paper wallet which you can print its qr code than saving it on your social media acc or telegram .. maybe it is just a user fault where they re saving their private key on their respective social media accounts .. or maybe they just put it on any of the airdrops form .

Myetherwallet.com is safe as long you didnt give your private keys to anyone and no one would able to bypass or bruteforce myether site even that site doesnt have the possession of our keys which means our wallets our totally safe.The thing about nothing on this world cant be bypass since only people do create them which it can be access too but talking on the hashes and probability then it would really be hard for them.

Yes, it is very secure and safe if you know you are following the guide on what's do's and don't. Yes, I believe it's users' fault if he got hacked and it will only happen if they become a victim of phishing and they did not notice that they are logging on a fake site.

This is the wallet i used to keep my ethereum coin and i think it was secured because it has private key which you are the only one who knows that key, and i think it is ot hard to hack until you do not disclosed to other your key. I used this morethan 6months and i do not encounter any problem in my withdrawal and deposit that is why i recommend MEW to store your ethereum coin but it is your own risk.

Thanks for that info sir . Thank you .. So my assumption of this discussion was moved to securities, well I'm wrong on that part of transferring it to alt coin service discussion. Thank you everyone for answering my question and for how many days that we've been discussed this issue . I finally confirmed that myetherwallet was safe and the best ethereum web wallet .. And you can also make a paper wallet which you can print its qr code than saving it on your social media acc or telegram .. maybe it is just a user fault where they re saving their private key on their respective social media accounts .. or maybe they just put it on any of the airdrops form .
Good to know that you got a good result of using myetherwallet and finding it out on your own.

Myetherwallet is very much recommendable wallet to the people who use to stock some ERC20 tokens aswell with eth tokens, They are been used by many people around the globe, And the only treat for this is the owner since they are the one who's handling it and if their balance will be hack then the owner will be the one who will blame for the incident since he is the one who's responsible for his own private keys. This is the wallet i used to keep my ethereum coin and i think it was secured because it has private key which you are the only one who knows that key, and i think it is ot hard to hack until you do not disclosed to other your key. I used this morethan 6months and i do not encounter any problem in my withdrawal and deposit that is why i recommend MEW to store your ethereum coin but it is your own risk.
More trusted than any other wallet I think and I would recommend this to the ethereum users also.

I am observing this wallet first because i am not fun of ethereum coin, lately i start investing in ethereum and i will used this wallet to keep my ethereum hoping that it would be more trusted and not lost my coin. But since many feedback is positive i think it was a legit and safe wallet but i not putting all my ethereum in that wallet.

I have been using mew for quite some time right now, and honestly I can say it is safe. But we cannot deny that lately it have been a target of phishing attacks using slack and other messaging apps. If the person is not well versed in protecting their private keys or verifying the links they are clicking, their eth wallet will be hacked. But that is not the mew's fault anymore, but a user's.

It is safe if you only know what you are doing. The main problem with users nowadays is they only aim for the free airdrops without knowing anything. They lack knowledge like how to safely use their wallet. I bet they don't even know what's the difference between public key and private key.

Etherwallet is safe because it is similar to bitcoin wallet. The chances of it being hack is very small due to its changing address.
