you really doesn't need to be worried. All you Ether and tokens are stores in the blockchain. therefore it can not be hacked. MEW is just a client application or an interface which uses to get access to Ethereum blockchain. Besides you can monitor your account anytime by checking you account on any ether explores like etherscan.io

Theoretically, all online wallets are in danger, but this is not a problem with the Ethereum protocol. The main reason for the theft of funds is that anyone who knows how to exploit vulnerabilities on the sites can hack into the Web Wallet.

Hack can anything, but it all depends on the level of protection. MEW is very secure and I think your funds are protected. The main thing is not to fall for phishing sites. I once went inadvertently on this site. It's good that I didn't enter my data there.

As long as you don't enter on phising site , your funds will be ok but make sure you instal all the plugins that myetherwallet provides on the front page and I sugest to install all 3 of them just to be sure that you have extra protection and in future try to by a hardware wallet because it's much more safer.

Few weeks ago there is a notice that MyEtherWallet was hacked so everyone was advised not to log in. I think eversince we've used computers in our daily lives, we are vulnerable to hacking so does those crypto wallets even if there's a lot of softwares promising us protection and such

I think that the MEW service is not the first time to prove its right to be the first in this field and many still use this service, despite the fact that there have been cases and attempts to hack the service but it still remains to work.

The problem with cryptocurrency theft has to do with human mistakes.  Most platform try as much as possible to have a secure platform but people still make mistakes.
Many people did not expect that our computers were being tracked by hackers, and I was very scared to hold many tokens and ETHs in my computer. Although they are very secure but can not say 100% sure. We restrict the viewing of adult movies, we limit the use of unknown sites. That's why hackers are so easy to hack.

I think the best coin are ETH, ETC and tokens. You cannot make up your private key and keep it in your head on another coins, but on these coins can

myetherwallet can be hacked for even a lot of events that lose coins from myetherwallet because exposed to phishing is a common thing in myetherwallet. so I think it should be more careful when using myetherwallet and avoid phishing.

As long as the private key is not lost, of course your wealth in MEW will be safe. MEW could have been hacked, but MEW managers will not just shut up. I have experienced, saving in MEW for a long time, and the proof of the stored funds is still safe.

Of course your mew can get hacked, Most web based wallets are prone to hacks, it doesn't however mean that they are that vulnerable, Encrypt your wallet well and you will have nothing to worry about when it comes to safety, If you get careless however, you may lose your investments, especially when you expose your private keys.,You should also avoid frequent logins to your wallet may get you in trouble as the hackers can easily pick your keys.

MyEtherwallet can be hacked at anytime soon, hackers will do anything for an easy money, some stole users account by phishing, we can't guarantee our holdings safe but be sure that you already have profit on it before it's gone someday by being hacked, but myetherwallet is safe for now, make sure that you bookmarked it in your browser.

This wallet itself can not be hacked. For the reason that this is just an interface for access to the blockchain. Tokens can be stolen only for two reasons - user error (key loss) or viruses on computers that can steal your key.

The service itself can hardly be hacked, but you are in your own private keys, you can be hacked. Be careful, because YOU are the weakest link in the security of your crypto currency.

If a real hacker find your wallet interesting then there is no reason for him to stop to poke your wallet but since we talk about "hacking" wherein someone just transfer your token to another wallet without you knowing it then I think its the wallet owners fault, sometime we are being carefree and keep things on rush, so sometime instead we give our wallet account we accidentally give our wallet private code, so careful

Do not ever think that with the private key that we have then everything becomes safe, if we are not vigilant and careless internet access then they can steal data from the computer and of course use private key, the most important thing is always make sure that the sites we visit are safe.

I did not understand then that it could be fake mail. My friend also did it with me, meaning that the private key was given on the website of the two accounts were hacked that day.
