Yes, I'm afraid of hackers in two ways.
First, they are after my (and everyone else's) accounts and coins. That's why I use a hardware wallet for my main savings and use different email and passwords for everywhere as precaution.
Second, if they manage to steal data from a trading or wallet site, the news make people to lose trust in cryptocoin and then everyone will panic sell, leading to crypto-market to drop suddenly.

Am afraid of hackers. Because they are very desperate and lazy to work, all they are thinking is how to stolen other people money.

It is good to be aware of the danger of hackers but there are alot of ways to protect yourself from them.
There is also an upcoming ICO that is offering such security its called DIWtoken. I would recommend you go and checkout the whitepaper.

In this generation, there are so many hackers or scammers scattered in the internet world. There are many ways to prevent them like: 1.If it is too good to be true then it is most probably a scam. 2. Look for information on a variety of websites and forums in every transactions you will do. And also, be wary of phishers. Phishing is the attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details (and money), often for malicious reasons, by disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. If you become there victim, they can steal or your files, informations or even private keys in your computer so be extra careful on that one.

everyone in this forum or those playing with bitcoin or all coins will be afraid of hackers. The ways to prevent hacker can be range from safer browsing like clear your cache and data don't use auto save password, get anti virus and malware to make your computer save but this is not 100% foolproof can only greatly lower your chances of being hacked.

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?
Sure, I think this is a thing that all Bitcoin users are scared. At present, this problem is increasingly, especially since the value of Bitcoin increased. To be safe, in my opinion, the first thing is that we need to hold privatekey, print it on paper and not store it in the computer or phone. Choose the safest wallet possible, if you own a large amount of Bitcoin, you should split out many different wallets. Another thing is that we need to browsing safely, be careful with the site is unclear, it may contain viruses

You do not have to be afraid of hackers or other types of thieves unless you reveal yourself, but if you reveal yourself on social media it becomes easily bait for hackers.

The more my capital grows the more I think about how I can protect it. Now I use the hardware wallet of Ledger Nano to store large sums. I am sure that my funds are safe. Now the most vulnerable coins on exchanges.

Yes, of course I am afraid of the hackers, I could not imagine how devastating I would be if all my bitcoins or altcoins are being stolen from my wallet when I wake up the next morning to check my wallet and saw all my bitcoins and altcoins missing from my wallets.

Try to keep money on the Ledger. This is an external device. The ego will be more difficult to break.

Yes i'm afraid to hackers but you must know to protect yourself to them. Specially the greedy people getting hacked because they go anywhere surfing with knowing that site is a bogus already and one thing don't go to the net cafe because sometimes you forget to log off your account there then the other people use your computer so that's it. So I suggest put your own net in your home.

I was not afraid until you asked about it! But seriously, where does this data come from? It is clear that many steal, but where taken are the exact figures? In any case, any of us need a powerful antivirus and steel nerves.
