Yes I am afraid of hackers more than dumps in the price. If you make a wrong investment you can always have a chance to make it into positive by taking good decisions, however if you loose your coins to a hacker you have no option.
I was hacked a while ago then I bought a hardware wallet to be protected. Luckily the amount was a small percentage of my portfolio, this helped me securing my cryptocurrency

Recently Bloomberg posted the information that it took hackers less than 10 years to steal over 14% of all existing Bitcoins and Ethereum from the wallets of their holders. The total sum they have stolen is more than $1,2 billion! How to protect yourself from hackers attacks? Are you afraid of this stuff?

Well hackers are everywhere and no just for Cryptos. All that is needed is to correct some daily habits, learn some recommended procedures to secure your account and you should be fine. I am not saying these will help you 100% but for most part of it, it will keep the hackers away.

Some of these are-

1 - use physical wallets if possible
2 - encrypt your wallets with a strong password
3 - generate paper wallet and keep them safe if this isn't something that you use on a daily basis
4 - never leave your coins on exchanges unless you are a day trader
5 - always backup your wallets.dat files
6 - never store your confidential information on a machine that's connected to the internet.

Thanks and have a nice day.

Yes, hackers are bad, but is most people use common sense it is difficult to hack!

OMG, What a question !!Yes of course , you always need to fear a hacker,most of them are merciless, they are causing a great harm to you(if they want to) , mysterious , with secret agendas.Hacking is developing, day by day,reaching new heights,that means more pain in the ass for the victim. Instead, I would like to say that we are ones who make the most money(through illegal ways) easily with our skill. But we can minimize this kind of illegal doings such as: keep your social status private, Do not share your private key,username, and anything that can be a source of hack.

It's the double-edged sword of cryptocurrencies - on one hand you have complete control of your funds (coins), on the other hand you can also lose control of it (since you're fully responsible for your own assets). To be completely safe from hacking/phishing? Get a hard wallet.

I am scared of course but i'm not that worried because i've done a lot to secure my notebook and at least prevent malware from going into my system. I also has hardware wallet so i only have to prevent human error on my side and i should be safe from hackers.

I think everyone who is logical will have some fear about the safety of their crypto and one of the biggest threats is hackers.

Personally I am more concerned with government policies as I can control the safety of my wallet.

No, I do not afraid on hacker because i am using a hardware wallet and Linux based operating system. There is no reason to fear you. You do not click on advertising and spam link, and using tor browser network.

Oh my, you are the best possible target, except that no hacker would probably bother to waste his time with you, as your holdings don´t look great.

I wish there were a middle ground on this, like holding your keys but having somo more security built in into the systems that use the blockchain. I think that anyone who solves this problem will make plenty of profit.

I think everyone is afraid and threatened specially of what hackers can do to their respective accounts or wallets, though it's alarming we can rest assure that admins and staffs are doing their best to illuminate those kind of issues and protect their loyal client.

Everyone is afraid of hackers they are really scary and creepy ,
Just imagine that you are being monitored by a hacker and the hacker is using your phone or laptop.
I think we all wants our own privacy and we all wants our money or accounts to be safe.

Everyone is really afraid of hackers because there are a lot of people who are holding a huge amount of cryptocurrency so they are all trying to look for a way not to be penetrated by hackers, always look for a reliable site to hold your coin in order for you not to get problems in the future when are wealthy enough to hold a huge amount of bitcoins.

Yes, I'm afraid because all of a sudden your hard earned money will be lost. We should be careful of the sites we're visiting and always have our private keys secured.

There's no need to be afraid in hackers because we have 2fa here or private keys so even they know your password and information about your account still they can't withdraw your coins.To avoid anything scam here i think don't click any link and listen first if soneone already post that here like they register in binance if you don't that exchanger don't register there and ask first if it's legit.


I think the hacker is the most anxious problem with online money transactions. If careless you can white-handed for hackers
It's a good idea to keep your information confidential, not click on suspicious sites and use a good anti-virus software

I think everyone related to internet and online earning field are afraid of hackers because no one wants to lose the money which they have earned by working day and night here. There are many ways to be safe from hackers. If you are related to cryptocurrency field then you need to keep your Computer safe from viruses and Keep your private keys safe. Still, there are chances but we need to keep everything safe.
