People who are not afraid of hackers are the first that will be hacked!
So, take all the necessary security measures to keep safe you assets.
If you do your duty, there is no reason to be afraid.

I think it is the biggest worry when it comes to cryptocurrency because nobody wants to get hold of their crypto for it to be snatched. I am not afraid but I am aware that I need to be secure, hence why I have invested into a hardware wallet. Safety first!

Of course , i`m very worried about this issue. Now the level or protection is several times stronger than in 2010 and even in 2014 year's, but this is all - the internet and the numbers , which in fact is not 100% secure. Therefore i highly recommend placing two-factor authentication on your stock exchanges , also when creating your password use the - @ symbol , which is hard to crack.

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?
To be honest I am afraid. But I do not have many coins. If hackers invade my account. It may well disappoint him.

I am a bit scared. So I generally can not easily tell my personal information. Prevention is also very important.

Yes. Im afraid of them because they cannot be identified. Hackers can get your money and you cannot get it back. You cannot report them because they are no one.

i am very afraid of hackers. especially because i do not know how to secure my assets. i am afraid that they will access my account and know my private keys. so i am very careful in giving and logining in some sites.
I also have this worry. So sometimes there are some sites that look less secure I will not login.

Hackers will cause trauma and nightmare for their victims. Imagine your Crypto Assets will suddenly lost without your permission and that's the scary part.
Of course I do afraid of Hackers. I am an IT but I'm not a security expert so I do fear that someday someone could break in to my wallet account and will take every tokens I have and I don't want that to happen because I am holding high amount of Crypto Assets that could offer me good life if ever I'm going to turn it into real money.

I am not afraid of these hackers as most of my coins are secured in a hard wallet trezor. After I read about the past hacking of online wallets and exchanges I never keep my coins in them for more than a day. So I pretty much confide in these hard wallets rather that trusting some online wallet and be agitated about losing money all the time.

If you think keeping your coins in an hardware wallet is completely safe and not afraid of any hackers then you are wrong. Nowadays hackers are trying to exploit the hardware wallets by installing mock up software on your PC. You'll never know how your hardware wallet would be emptied just by some JavaScript codes running in your PC.

especially hackers are now inserting in some app that smells advertising, because many of the victims stolen their coin from ledger so pay attention when you install any application because every defect will be easily interfered by hackers

I think being cautious, regardless of being afraid of hackers, is always a good choice.

I'm not really scared. But I try to comply with safety rules. I'm not visiting any weird sites and doesn't download anything. I do not enter passwords. I have 4 years use Kaspersky Internet Security. I had no problems with him.

Of course you have to be afraid of hacker, in the same way you are probably afraid of apartment thieves, as there is no 100% protection against them.

But while anyone pays attention not to leave the keys in the door or the windows on the ground floor open, lot of people forget to take the minimal safety measures to protect their assets.

It's true, a skilled hacker can probably crack our protections, but if they are good he will look for an easier targer.

Sure, it can happen, But I am not really afraid of it, because I believe in my wallet and I am more like alert and do something carefully. That's not a bad thing for me. Self-discipline solution to it
