Yes I think a lot of people are afraid of hackers and I am afraid one day a hacker will visit me, this is I think by far one of my biggest fear. I was once a victim of a hacker, and hacked my social media account. It is scary because it might get your personal information and might threaten one of my family member or something. That's why we have to be cautious and always careful of the information we divulge in any forms of social media.

Lately hackers have become active.
I also was robbed at Blockchain.info. And now I'm paranoid.
Here are my tips for safety:
1. A separate laptop for cryptocurrency
2. Do not store passwords and keys from wallets on your computer
3. Do not click on links from email
4. Go to exchanges and wallets only saved the links
5. Use secret email for exchanges
6. Set up a complex passwords and use 2FA authenticator.

I think it's almost the same as being afraid that your apartment or house will be hacked. Therefore, you probably just need to try not to lose the keys to the house. And as if it happened, then it's certainly hard to fix anything. Therefore, probably there is nothing to be afraid of, but if you have something to fear, then you need to strengthen protective measures.

Yes, I'm totally afraid of them, because hacker's can scam easily our wallet and get our money that we get, so we need to secure our wallet or bank always because they can get our money too even it is in the bank.

I often think about the fact that all my coins need to be distributed among several separate wallets. So if suddenly hackers crack one or more, the rest will remain untouched

Everyone is scared of hackers. U can save ur cryptocurrency in many other place in order to prevent them to hack ur wallet!
Yes of course because they do anything just to get money from the others even they know its not right, they don't have any care even a little if you'll lose all your money. So we need to do is to protect our wallet by not giving a personal key, and to those your coin you should very careful especially right now because many scam ICO is show up to make invest to them.

All users that stores valuable informations in their computers, laptops and mobile phones shoud be extra cautious when browsing online.
The truth is that any device that is connects to the internet is theoreticaly vulnerable to being hacked.
Technical experts admitted recenty that nothing can be 100% secure. The rapid advances of technologies  makes computers more vulnerable to hacking and it is increasingly difficult for the experts to find faster remedies. You still can secure your account by avoiding phising sites, be always suspicious of emails, check link location, never open attachments unless you are really sure and use the two-factor authentication.

Yes of course those hackers really got a skills. That's why you do a safe browsing. Don't click any link from strangers so you can avoid phishing sites. Make sure you have a antivirus on your computer and make sure you scan it always to avoid viruses. Don't go any sites that you don't know make sure the site your are browsing is always secure, you will find it on the address bar or you will see https. Be careful everyone. Goodluck.

*don't download files with the pc that you are using for cryptos, if possible use ios (macbook) for cryptos.
*don't store your coins on exchanges, waves dex will be very good alternative.
*use a hardware wallet, especially ledger and trezor.

I am a little afraid as my amounts grow and grow, but there have been a few cases of people forcing people to transfer their crypto by gunpoint.

As long as you are safe, use a hardware wallet and don't shout from the roofs about your wealth, I think you are fine.

Nope, hacker could not steel your asset in blockchain, the system 100% eliminate that possibility.
The only thing hàcker can stole is your key to access your asset. so if you learn all basic knowledge about network security, noone could enter to your data and take it away unless you somehow set them that right
