possession of bitcoin is the possession of inputs and outputs of transactions, no more. therefore, you need to understand this rule-to keep private keys safe, no online wallets

[Crystal24]

To keep your wallet from being hacked, do not click on every link that comes your way.
Guard your private key jealously.
Do not share your private key with anyone.

Maybe bitcoin should raise all their systems because I think it's too easy to hack because it's too weak and so easy so bitcoin should raise its system if you do not want another hacker, maybe you should use a second password and google authenticator if you want to do a transaction may be just that I know about bitcoin

[Don Karnage]

Most hacker attacks lead to success because of the stupidity of people. Even when break large companies - always it turns out that someone from the staff clicked the wrong and went to the wrong link.

You can use a security password to make a withdrawal and you can also use google authenticator or second password because I think it is very helpful to thwart the hacking of your bitcoin wallet and you also have to be careful because I see has many people create almost the same site and all scam so they make the same site just to take your data and they will also take all your assets so you have to be more careful if you want to do transaction

You actually mentioned something's that are new to some of us here,I think the wallet depends,then if a good hacker is on your case,its only God that can save you,but I still recommend bitfil.com as wallet for any Cryptos..

Unfortunately, man is the most common cause of such situations. Because of inattention or distraction people make mistakes, which results are very expensive. It's enough to remember the basic safety rules and apply them to avoid unpleasant consequences.

[AliciaHenry12]

To prevent hackers, you need to have a good knowledge of information technology, learn about ways to prevent hackers, you can contact the network security to have ways to prevent them. Regularly check your computer system.

[BitBite5]

Use safe wallets, like hard wallets, avoid using web wallets they are the most vulnerable.
Also, if yoo use any wallet that you have access through your computer or mobile phone always have updated antivirus, keep your personal data and credentials safe and don't revel them to anyone.
And never, but never use exchanges as wallet.

[Delinquency]

They're all great tips for people who are new in cryptocurrency world. I already knew and paying attention these things except public wifi issue. Actually  I'm using public wi-fi even if rarely. I'll be careful from now. Thank you share this. Good job.

[Bitfling]

HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET

Protect yourself from cyber criminals

Good day to all of you guys I am EdsnowAngel a programmer and a bit security tester in different platforms. Now I heard to my friends a lot of concerns saying "please help me my bitcoin wallet was hacked!!"

Ok ok first thing first when your bitcoin wallet gets compromised then your funds was send in different wallet then it is irreversible meaning no return of funds!! so I wanna tell everyone how to protect your bitcoin wallet from such kind of situation.

1st: Protect your GMAIL or EMAIL ACCOUNT
     
       We all know we use GMAIL as our email provider for such accounts like blockchain then we can recover and approve login with email in some wallets, now when your email account was targeted and get compromised then say goodbye to your bitcoin.To secure your bitcoin wallet(ex: blockchain or other) go to your google account settings. and then turn on the 2FA(2nd factor authentication) here is the guide on how to do it: STEP BY STEP GUIDE

2nd: Use your own DEVICE or COMPUTER/PHONE
 
       It's a very bad idea to use someones device(ex:from friend) to make a transaction in your bitcoin wallet why? because first you don't know what is the capability of that person regarding that matters and you don't know if that phone has a lot of malwares and spywares.So we cannot say that you are safe using someones device to make transactions.

3rd: Always backup you PK's or PRIVATE KEYS
         
       This is the most important thing to remember for everyone using your ETH or BTC wallet without backing up your Private keys then you can't recover you wallet in case you forgot your wallet.PK's are very important but there are thing you should do first. Make sure you store your PK backup somewhere that you only know and not from your computer because there are some spyware that might inside of your computer that can steal that file so make sure you back it up print in a paper and hide it to the place where you only know.

4th: Don't open links from malicious emails

      This method was called email phishing where an attacker will send the same email in thousands of random users once the victim will click the link in that email then his or her device was compromised to avoid this please do not click the links included in the email immediately please always have time to check who is the sender of that email and if that email is came from the site where it supposed to came from.

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.

6th: Do not login on Suspicious links

     This method is called PHISHING where an attacker  will send you a link to login with your bitcoin wallet luring you with the legitimate site example is:
the real site is: https://www.blockchain.info/
the fake site is: http://www.blockchain.ga/

then once you login to the fake site then the hacker or attacker will have now your credentials. Please always check for the green lock on the url bar and the word HTTPS in the link.


so this are some of the way to stop hackers to hack your bitcoin or crypto wallet. If you have other information then you can comment it down and lets help others.

This thing will help us , finally someone gives information about this. Its nice to see that other people care about us . This information gives us knowledge especially for those begginers. Thankyou for this advice / tips.

[Daniwahyu007]

thanks for the information you share is very helpful .. I prefer to use ledger without fear of using everywhere

[btcCoincart]

My way is never login with the private key. Always use crypted password, two steps authorize, and the javascript key is also a good choice. Don't try to login your wallet with public network such as restaurant, coffee shop or mall wifi. Wish you guys are always stay safe in this market

[Tukang Becak]

To keep your wallet from being hacked, do not click on every link that comes your way.
Guard your private key jealously.
Do not share your private key with anyone.

I do not think that will be enough and too powerful, the safest thing is to divide it into several places, there is no guarantee that enabling all security features will be safe so sharing them into various types of wallet is the safest thing.

[2408AAY]

Hacking has been one major problem in technology. To stop hackers from hacking your crypto wallet, you need to get a hardware wallet for your crypto. You also need to prevent showing your private key to others, avoid opening links that you aren't sure of and lastly, be careful of public WiFi usage.

[Gankstard]

Nice summary for beginners eventually it al comes down to common sense. Protect your investment the way you keep everything safe and be aware of phishy stuff that seems to good to be true.

[massimo123]

Well said but funny enough people still don't use 2FA everywhere and these hacks still happen. The latest one happened on TenX platform but $ taken was negligible because platform isn't running.

[kendra1107]

I'll give you a few claps for this...Points are good and very useful. But I must say that the title would have been better if it were "How to Prevent..." instead of "How to Stop..." Coz most of your points are preventive or security measures. Nothing really to STOP hackers. In reality, we can never stop hackers from doing what they do. We can only do as much as we can to prevent them from making victims out of us. I believe you get my point.

[MommyElsa]

Do not let anyone handle your computer or cellular phone. Keep your password and wallet's private keys,  do not share it with others for security reason and avoid being hacked by anyone.
