If your wallet is hacked, then you will not do anything unfortunately. But you can protect your wallet. For better protection, you should be a bit paranoid: do not connect to unverified networks, maintain the correct password policy, etc.

If you are a technical person then I think no one will be able to hack your wallet. For the blockchain technology this is difficult. But I insist you should not be subjective and do not put eggs together in a basket.

As long as you don't fall for any phishing sites or download any unknown scam wallets or software you should be fine.

it's better to secure your account with double protection like using 2FA features if available and saving your seed key on a piece of paper or something and avoid storing seed key on your computer/smartphone that's very risky. Hoặc là to transfer coins to offline wallet or create paper wallet. Because keeping in any of the exchange is not safe.

I imagine that those who own a lot of BTC never leave on exchanges, or very little and very well scattered
Yes of course you should be, because hackers can get your btc by simple click. Just keep clicking many sites that not familiar to you. Just be careful and keep your password very well.

The most important thing is to keep his bitcoin on a hardware wallet and divide it into different address inside the hardware wallet.
But yeah, do not ever connect to unknown network which is often to be a bait by hackerto penetrate your PC and steal your identity

Be careful in everything, make sure your Bitcoin accounts are kept confidential and password protected. Use high security devices for smartphones. Or your computer, please set the password all related items. and save it safely. Do not join but do not trust.

Even with only the Crypto dust, you have to keep your assets secure. It is not just a loss of money but also a lot of risk involved. And when you have a large amount of Bitcoin in your wallet, the more you have to improve the security of your assets. But you do not need to be scared. The property is yours, think of using it appropriately, and preserve it in the best way.

I am hearing a lot of users' complaint about having a problem transferring their BTC, Nowadays I am not selling it because I am "Hodling" it for future. But I am a bit of scared now because all this news about the people's BTC being hacked.

What should I do If My wallet or BTC gets hacked?

I think if you have a lot of bitcoin but you are very afraid by hackers I think it's normal, to avoid hackers better you keep your assets are in blockchain.info directly because there provides a bitcoin wallet that is very high security.

If you have a huge amount of btc then do not store it in web wallets or in any online wallet. Store it in your ledger nano or in paper wallets. Storing it offline is much more safier than saving it on we wallets wherein you can be targeted by hackers. So anyway just be careful and if you are going to hold your btc in web wallet or in any wallets available make sure to diversify your bitcoins in different wallets so that if one wallet is gone you have many wallets more.

yes of course it can make us keep our bitcoin. Because hackers are the most nefarious actions or bad people for those of us who have bitcoins. What's more if you have a lot of bitcoin that we must keep as safe or a stronger guard suapay not taken by hackers.

yes of course because if we have bitcoin it's the same we have to keep our treasure. What's more if we have enough bitcoin, it's very damaging if a hacker picks it up. So we have to keep up really safe bitcoin.

You should not be scared of hackers because if you know how to keep your wallet safe no one will hacked your BTC. Like me I used myetherwallet and I only used metamask so it will not be hacked by the hackers out there.

After it gets hacked there is not much you can do. You should adequately prepare before it gets hacked. I suggest you invest and buy a hardware wallet, it is very safe and straightforward to use.

people are to blame for the loss of their funds. Do not comply with basic safety rules. Look for the necessary site through Google without using bookmarks. Or store private keys in the mail and other easily hacked places. A vivid example of hacking Ian Balina's Google account

the best way to get your inforamtion secure is cold storage IMO. keeping you wallet on your computer with internet connection do not protect you at one hundred.
