Are you afraid of hackers?

[hxk451]

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?

A comment out for. Put your coin to the point where you can secure it with a PC tainted with malware and still be sheltered. The main thing to stress over is social engineering. In the event that they can persuade to press the affirmation catch in the record then there truly isn't much that should be possible.

No, I'm not afraid, I think they are good people actually, they can only steal your private info, so don't keep it in your pc or phone, keep it on portal hard drive.  

[tigoes]

Yes, I am because once you been hacked theirs a possibility that you wont open again your all bitcoin account

Always it is worth being afraid of tricks of swindlers. But there are many ways of protection against it.... good passwords, two-factor protection of a purse, division of the capital between the exchanges and purses and attentiveness in everything. I do so

the way on how you may able to secure your house with people that are trying to stole something so here this is really kind of same on how you are able to make some secure about your bitcoin so better to have some knowledge regarding on it.

Because the cryptocurrency is only valid online so everyone have a little tension about their account being hacked.But the best part is that we are using blockchain technique and 2fa which makes us feel much safer.

[roganite]

I am worried the more and more crypto I get, so I take a lot of precautions such as a hardware wallet.

[Castlereagh]

Yeah absolutely. I mean, then you have at the other end of the spectrum THIS:

"GUN WIELDING thugs in balaclavas broke into the home of a cybercurrency trader and forced him to transfer a fortune in bitcoin in what is reported to be the first ever UK cryptocurrency robbery. The masked robbers burst into the home in Moulsford, Oxfordshire, tied up the man’s wife, put the couple’s baby outside in a pram and forced the man to give them his bitcoin. It is reported that schoolchildren were locked inside as a police helicopter looked for suspects and quizzed local residents. A woman said: "I saw four young men in black tracksuits with the hoods pulled up, crossing the road to the property where it took place.’ She added: ‘They were aged 18 to 25, dark-skinned and super-fit. They jumped over the fence on the other side of the road. I didn’t see any gun, but that’s what people locally are saying – and that the men wore balaclavas which I didn’t see either, just the hoodies pulled up."

Depending on where you live, probably worth putting that hardware ledger in a hidden safe and have a dummy wallet somewhere with a token amount of crypto in it!

look man, no one in the world would ever want to lose anything they possess. let alone things that they have really worked hard gaining. i mean, who wouldn't be afraid of something like this? specially those who have ignored the famous saying here that "only invest funds that you can afford to lose" and still proceeded to invest almost everything they had in real life into cryptos. now i ain't an expert with security strategies in protecting your possessions or any kind of that matter, but i sure am continuously searching for ways to make my bitcoins together with all my altcoins to be safer in my wallets. and i think everyone should also do the same too. that is, if they really do treasure all the cryptos that they own. although it may take a lot of time and effort, i think it is nothing compared to losing your hard earned bitcoins or altcoins. just sayin'

[alt-fire]

I am afraid of them. I constantly check if I'm on a original site.
my friend lost 1500$ due to a phishing site mew

I completely agree with you. But I bought "Ledger nano s" for storage of funds. I think this is the most reliable way of storing.

There is not a reason to be afraid but you need to be careful, if you have your money in an exchange then activate 2 factor authentication, this is critical if you want your money to be safe also do not use the same password for different services, use a password generator or create your own, if you hold your own coins then do not store them in a computer with pirated software do this and the chances of losing money are low.

All were afraid to use bank cards like visa when they just appeared. Now all are afraid to use these wallets. It just takes some time to get used to it

[venox12]

I'm afraid, but unfortunately I will not be able to protect myself in any way. To hack is not a problem - it would be that hacking and there would be a desire. We now live in an era that, in principle, the issue of digital security is very relevant. And unfortunately I have a couple of friends who are well versed in computers so to speak. And they argue that with a huge desire, you can hack all

you cant hack a paper

[cryptowomba]

I think everyone is scared of hackers and the fact that it is a digital currency makes people worry more. I think it is a natural fear, you just have to be careful.

[Klovezio]

Just about anything can be hacked. The best way - put the crypto on cold storage and lock it up at a secure location. 

In this case, the usIng of cryptocurrencies would be extremely inconvenient. How do you plan to solve this problem?

[Dilucoins]

Yeah absolutely. I always double check every website address and always use the original software. we cannot trust every crack Softwares sometimes crack gots keyloggers (malware). we must pay attention all the time.

What about password managers? They seem safe to me but you never know.

it is certain everyone will be afraid of hackers, because this digital or virtual currency certainly makes everyone more worried.
what's more cryptocurrency is only valid online would make people more afraid if their account hacked. to make us feel much more secure we can use blockchain and 2fa.s techniques

[Galina12]

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.
