MEW is kinda like a hardware wallet, if you have keys you have everything. Don't worry

For sure it can. MyEtherWallet not a bank! and it tolds you about it. One of my friend lost his money from MEW, because of viruses. So I recommend you just be safe keep your private key very safe.

Myetherwallet is the target of many hackers all around the world because most altcoins can be stored in MEW, so it is the biggest target of cryptos hackers, however MEW is not easy to hack, it is changing and evolving everyday, i dont say it is impossible for hackers to hack MEW but they may change users to phising site and make them give private key easily.

My Ether Wallet is the safest wallet, no one can hacked easily as long as your private keys are secure and you don't share it with anyone. So you have to be very careful about your private keys.

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?
It's a wallet that is online so yes...the wallet can get hacked is someone has access to the private keys or the wallet password.

Always remember to store your private key in a secured storage. save it in the usb or wrote it down. It's very impossible to hack MyEther wallet unless you got phishing site.

As long as you own the private keys your money is safe. Take into your consideration that the coins are not in your etherwallet nor in any other kind of wallet. The wallet stores the address the private keys and encrypts them if you use a password. All your money are stored in the blockchain. Having the private key you prove that the coins belong to you and that you have the right to send them wherever you wish.

Yes, it can be hacked. You have to be careful when accessing websites and trying to open some files. Someone might try to keylogged you or someone might have an access on your account. Don't stop being little cautious even with other people coz they just might copy your private Key.

Read your post again: Hi, i have backupped my pvkeys on an usb stick. I wrote it also down on a piece of paper. Everything else is irrelevant, as long as you can access private keys you are fine. If you haven't had keylogger while you were printing these keys chance for someone to hack your paper wallet/offline usb stick = 0%.

If you have not seen your private key from MEW anywhere, then you have nothing to worry about. 99% of hacking is due to the fact that people show their private key. Therefore, I think that you have nothing to worry about.

For sure every platform and wallet can be hacked. I can advice you : Do not hold all money in one wallet, hold part of it on exchanges. Remember MEW not a bank.

always log in using Trezor or keep your keystore file extremely safe. Since we're using an online system everything is at a risk but the chances are less

Myetherwallet is a web wallet that needs a private key to access your digital tokens stored in it. All your tokens will be safe there as long as you will not lose your private key and your UTC backup file or unless you are careless enough to get hooked on a phishing site.

Your funds are safe even you dont check it for a while because you have no PC, unless someone else found out your private keys where you hide it, but as long as youre the one knows your private keys even if it take a year to check your ether wallet your funds is safe there.

Nothing is hack-proof unless you disconnect your computer from the internet completely! With all these keyloggers around and new malware specifically targeting ways of stealing your altcoins and bitcoins you need to ensure your private keys are safe

Myetherwallet cannot be hacked unless you're computer has been compromised by hijackers and hackers like changing your memory every time you're going to send some coins into another wallet or some things like that. Myetherwallet is one of the safest and more secured wallet except your computer has virus in it.

Well it’s possible of course. We are talking about crypto after all. Myetherwallet is a useful wallet that’s easy to use. You just need to be careful with where you are putting your keys in.
