Short answer is Yes & No.
If your Bitcoin wallet is hosted in a third party server (coinbase, blockchain, bittrex ect) then yes it can get hacked.
If your Bitcoin wallet is hosted on your own device, personal computer or in an offline paper wallet then it cannot get hacked.

Nope. None that i have seen or can ever think of. Which makes me idolize satoshi or satoshi team even more. The code that they have used in bitcoin is really amazing. Because if you try amd think about it, out of all the years bitcoin has been existing, never had it happened even once that someone has ever made bitcoin fall down into it's knees or anywhere near it. The only thing i csn hear about hacks into bitcoins are through careless holders clicking malicious links that usually are fishing sites. And scamming. But other than that? Nothing. Literally.

I know that bitcoin wallet can be hacked but i don't see how bitcoin itself can be hacked in any way, Its the same way that neither Gold or the US Dollars can be hacked and just as bitcoins basically doubles as these to as a currency and an investment asset it can't be hacked at all.

No.Unless the user reveals his wallet's private key publicly and any one stores his bitcoins in exchanges,bitcoins could not be hacked.If hacking would had been possible,then there would be no bitcoins remaining in any one's wallet.Since already bitcoin exchanges like mt.gox have been hacked alread,bitcoins should not be stored in exchanges.

If the questions is "is my bitcoin can be hacked?" the answer is yes. To answer your question bitcoin has a blockchain technology that I think cannot be hacked in any way.

If you watch the news about BTC, you can see the current technology of Bitcoin currency, no one can hack and manipulate this money. Only e-wallets or websites are hacked and occupy the entire BTC in it. Like the altcoin, I think I can hack but BTC alone, then I assert that this coin can never be hacked. So you have peace of mind to invest in BTC and store it offline rather than online storage on the electronic wallet, offline BTC archive will be safer and not be hacked.

What do you mean particularly? If what you mean is the main codes of Bitcoin, I don't know much about it nor its possibility of being hacked. But so far, I have only read hacking jobs that went successful in the Ethereum wallets. Hacks in Parity, myetherwallet, Mist, and other Ethereum wallets are well-known. There are also hacks done with Bitcoin wallet accounts but these are usually individual cases.

Bitcoin can't be hacked but your private key may be guessed by bruteforcing.

This is that question that I seen in this forum about 3-4 times like this , but here I would like to give my opinion with the help of a article that I ridden about 2.5 year ago in a bit related site . In that article it was written that private key is made by the calculation with that words that are making that bitcoin adress, so if someone can make private key with the help of bitcoin address then surely bitcoin can be hack , but in that article it was mentioned that if we will make combination of such a private key with the help of super computer then it will take about 10 to 15 years to make private key combination for a particular adress , so here this is about imoos to hack bitcoin blockchain technology in any way .

Bitcoin can only truly be hacked if like 90% of the hashing power was done by one person or company.

It is not easy to hack bitcoin now because it is having a lot of wallets and it will not be hacked and will get huge profit to you. Bitcoin block chain is one of best wallet it is not able to hack but if they will not share bitcoin key with anyone and will make all sure about bitcoin safety. Now there are several bitcoin wallets like online and offline wallets so it is safe and secure not able to get hacked very easily.

The question is more like hacking the bitcoins technology. I don't think it is possible. The blockchain technology can't be hacked. Plus it is a shared hashing it can hack a single person but not the whole bitcoin.

Bitcoin never hack by hacker but your bitcoin wallet can be hacked if someone know your wallet privet key or wallet password then your bitcoin wallet will be hacked.
true, bitcoin cant be hacked but bitcoin wallet can br hacked as hackers nowadays is everywhere. to make sure that your wallet can't be hacked, don't sage your wallet password anywhere, secure it and do not give your password to anyone. don't click any pishing website or link they can access your account.

bitcoin itself cant be hack directly. the one that can be hacked here is your bitcoin wallet , if your to careless enough to handle it like for example you accidentaly visited a phising site because you are too lazy to look in the address bar then you input your private key and boom you've just been hack because of your own fault. there were also other forms of hacking attempts like viruses,trojans,malwares, these can occur if your also careless enough because you download some files to a untrusted source or website.

Bitcoin is a digital currency and hackers also using internet to hack something but I believe that bitcoin is now very stable with high price in market so there is no chance of it that someone can hack bitcoin because bitcoin have now a lot of experience in market and it knows all its fork in market so it’s very hard to hack bitcoin because in past bitcoin defeat a lot of its forks so no need to worry about anything and I’m sure nothing will happen to bitcoin.
