HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET

[edsnowangel]

I do not think hackers can attack your wallet if you do not create opportunities for them. Hackers need a certain amount of information to be able to attack your wallet, so your disclosure of personal information is the reason why you hacked.

yes that's true most of the hackers rely on personal information then after that they make a best way to attack you but there are hackers who randomly hack people.

The easiest way for you to protect your crypto currency is by keeping it in an offline wallet,
A hard ware wallet is a good one for keeping your crypto safe (Nano Ledger,Trezor) You could also use a paper wallet if you don’t have enough money to buy a hard ware wallet just becareful in securing it.

using hardware wallets is a great idea and great precaution to prevent hacking scenario but there are lot of people that can't afford to buy one since they are newbie they only rely on free and online

I don't know. The OP received a lot of merit but I think it only addresses online wallets and only very superficially. Some really basic advice is just not present (have a separate device for 2FA than you use for browsing web - don't use your phone to login and as a 2FA at the same time) and offline wallet advice is missing entirely. I suggest to OP that the work he started is very valuable but please include more deeply advise.

it's not about merit I never force them to give me merit this is just a simplification of the methods I actually breaking it down on my other post if you just dig enough you can see it's basic if you can see this as basic but basic things can protect you if you want more advance just dig on my topics never complain about something that it the only intention is to help not to profit it's better to post the things like this than to post redundant post like "is it time to buy bitcoin", I think the givers are found this helpful  

in fact you can actually find those deep explanation with video presentation on my profile just dig up first

there are so many ways for you to hack the wallet like never trust anyone and do not want to be involved in anything that you have not yet been memorized because maybe later you will harm it so good to know first before all this part.

5th: Do not trust PUBLIC WIFI 

      It's quite good to have access with free wifi's but have you think this: IS THIS A SAFE NETWORK? without you knowing maybe some of the people connected to that same network may have idea and skill on how to sniff passwords and credentials this method was so called DNS SPOOFING or SNIFFING if you want to use public wifi then use it not just with your bitcoin transactions.

This is one of the best things to say for some bitcoin beginners. They always tend to be happy and enjoy public FREE wifis. But they don't even know what the risk is.

If you check the DNS of a wifi network you will see that it is different and I find somehow unusual. Yes, they have their own DNS server. Most of the wifi networks I know is using 192.168.1.1 (to get from the ISP) as DNS, the OpenDNS DNSs (208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220) as DNS or 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 DNS from Google.

If I'm unfamiliar with the DNS I don't do bitcoin transactions or any login attempt. Most case's I don't use it.

yes mostly spoofing the network is hard to see but if you are using some sort of securing your DNS then there is a way to protect you but believe it or not most of people don't configure their network and security

I agree, and they ought to know how or why. For those who don't know you can actually edit the current DNS server you are using to any of the DNSs you like.

On Android, I believe it is the wifi settings. Tap and hold the network you are connected and select modify. There you can change the DNS.
On PC Windows, right click the network icon in the tray, it be Wifi or Lan icon. Open Network and Internet settings, Goto Network and Sharing, in connections, click on the network your at, click on properties, and double click on IPv4. There you can change your DNS settings.

Just make sure it is the right DNS or you will not be able to access a website. But you can still connect and modify.

This is a great and detailed information on how you can prevent hackers to steal your precious coins. I think the most common mistake that people making is opening a malicious email and clicking the link, it happened to my friend and just lost $10k.

yes I am recommending users to use safe wallets or hardware wallets it's much more safe to store coins there but there are many people that can't afford to buy hardware wallets so what I do is educate them with more information about things like this.

[BagzMM]

The most commonly found in the loss of bitcoin or altcoin is human error. just enter a private key into an airdrop form and an application that contains trojans or malware that is eventually embedded in the pc. be careful in using tools or applications because of the RAT is not really good. And keep your coin from being stolen by others

Yeah i agree, it is commonly a human error that's why we need to be cautious in accessing sites. Hackers have their ways to fool anyone so as having a crypto wallet we need to safeguard it through an applications or hardware that will protect any cryto wallet.

it seems that it will never happen because the increasing technology will certainly trigger the hackers to try and always try to steal or break into the technology, hopefully the bitcoin in direct guard with blockchain can not be penetrated hackers.
