Online account/ money/ system are often hacked and Bitcoin is also an online money so I wonder whether it had been hacked in the past?  Huh

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Have you ever heard about the information that Bitcoin had been hacked in the past?  Huh

For me at least I don’t think or need to have a news article to know that bitcoin has been hacked or can be hacked. Just the fact that it exists on the internet, digitally and electonically a master hacker or someone competent enough can really pull this off as it is wrll within their scope and dimension and we can only do so much and provide ourselves with enough cyber security to get by
