Nothing 100% Safe in this world. But if i analyze your action. It has 90% security, but you must carefull about Private Key. It is your main key of all CryptoWallet

Very unlikely. All you have to do is keep safe the private key and if you backed up on a stick and on paper it's enough.
The site is pretty strong, but be careful with phishing.

In online world you are surrounded in risks, everything can happen.
First of all make secure your private key
Secondly It’s better to use hardware wallet to reduce these risks.

recently there was some news about myetherwallet about possible hack, yet i cannot confirm if the news was legit or just FUD

[Applechild]

I don't know how people get hacked and by what means but recently without exaggerating, about four people that i know have been hacked and all of them said they left their private and public keys online in their email inbox. I think that's how the hackers got the access to their wallets. I may be right or wrong. The good thing is that your details as you said is saved offline. it is safer than the online option.

Hi, i have backupped my pvkeys on an usb stick. I wrote it also down on a piece of paper. My computer broke. I put a metal pin through the harddrives. I will not buy a new pc soon. So i wont check in on myetherwallet for some time. I cant click on phishing links. My question is : are my funds safe? Can myetherwallet get hacked? Can my funds dissapear even when i have no computer, hid my keys? Im to stupid to work with a ledger or trezor. Can something happen to it like with the parity/kill?

Creating multiple copies of your keys is the best way to avoid loosing of all your data. Now, if you doubt myetherwallet on holding your coin then you should know that most of the professional traders are highly suggesting to use mew because it is trustworthy and i did not get any problems on this coin as well for the past years i used it.

Your fund will remain safe so long as you did not expose your private key to anybody or lose it to phishing site. It will remain there until when you are ready.

Best practice is to use the json file when logging in and not your private key - if your pc has malware, your key can be hacked easily.

Best standard is to use a hardware wallet. Mine I use ledger nano s - very easy to use.

Hey THere! I use Json to login but what if someone gets my password + Json at the same time? He has access to my Wallet right?

For increased security, you can run MyEtherWallet on your computer instead of from the GitHub servers. The computer should have no internet connection. You can generate a wallet completely offline and send transactions from the "Send Offline" page.

in my opinion, MEW can not be hacked, I just love the suggestion when you hold the private key or UTC File never open from someone else's computer, and keep your private Key very carefully

Any platform and account can be successfully attacked by hackers. To prevent Internet criminals from stealing your money, adhere at least to elementary security measures: make a complicated password, do not open confusing letters and links, always leave your profile and box at the end of work.

[Cactushrt]

Yes it's possible but it will be hard for hackers unless they have acces on your private key in that way they can stole your coins.

At present, Myetherwallet I have not found information on the website that they have been hacked by hackers, it is possible that you saved the private key or write to the paper to store the wrong. You can use JSON file to restore the wallet completely normal. For now, Myetherwallet is one of the safest wallets in e-wallet at the moment.

[Orino Suimuri]

myetherwallet has a very solid structure, so I don't think it can be hacked.
But of course, if you lose you private key, or you access a fake site, there is nothing you can do.
Take care!

[tinof]

Myetherwallet is very safe and secure. I don't think that can be hacked easily. Usually people are just sloppy with their private key and then blame the site.

[Brunus]

For what I know, due to his solid structure, it unlikely that myetherwallet will be hacked.
But there is no protection, so if you have a virus in computer, you lose your key and other similar things, well... bye bye money.

Nothing is absolutely safe and Myetherwallet is the same but I think that in order to be hacked into MEW this is very difficult. Because the MEW wallet is integrated with the most advanced security technologies to keep your wallet secure. Notices on the website are meant to help you protect your assets more safely, do not worry too much and have a false sense of the matter.

[hchc12011]

Well it’s possible of course. We are talking about crypto after all. Myetherwallet is a useful wallet that’s easy to use. If you are not entering your private keys in a malicious site or a hacked site, your account is 100% safe. As long as you keep your private key safe, your fund are safe, that's what matter, if you forget your private key or you lost it you will lose your Funds.

[BeBlockTech]

Nope, it can't! You can get hacked, your computer can get hacked, but not MEW. Otherwise, it would've been already done a long time ago.

I don't believe before that myetherwallet get hacked by the hacker. It is true, and I will prove it to you. If you want to get rid off by the stupid hacker, don't just click and click if you receive an email asking your information about you account, just ignore it if you were not sure and you don't know who's person sent to you that email. Think before you click.

That is called phising site if you receive a email then you will click it they can get all your information and they can hack your account,to avoid this issue if you receive a email that you are not familiarize ignore it or if you fill up a form the very important is to read first so that you will be aware always,and keep always your private key in a safe and secure hardware that no one can access.
