[hastag_80]

Hey guys.Im a newbie on crypto world.However i started doing my first money 1 year ago using e personal method.However i have improved and now i have like 4-5k worth of alt which i keep on exchange wallets.Are they safe?Or should i get anther wallet?

And yes,I have 100 % secured with email,number ,long password and 2FA but im still afraid

Mostly hackers now and phishing site's are rampant they disguise look a like a  MEW wallet,but when you look closely there is differrent in the letters,so we must be carefull thats why we afraid to those hackers or scamers because we do not know there true capabilities on how they hack our coin even without knowing our private key,even we put a 2FA is not  an assurance that our coins is secure unles we buy a ledger nano s for storing our coins.

With that amount, it is "safe" to have your money stored on an exchange, I'd recommend getting a Ledger Nano S if you hold bigger amounts (say $20k or more). Otherwise, keeping your money in an exchange is "safe"

Not only you, I think most of the people are afraid of Hackers/Scammers.
So be care of your wallet and do not let other people know you private key any time.

You will safe, if you maintain some things,
That are,

1. Secure wallet
2. Email Secuirity

You should use more secure wallet as like hardware wallet Ledger nano or Trezor wallet.
Otherwise extra safe metamask or myetherwallet when you can collect your token.

You are right, but there is third very important point. This is browsing security. Everyone should be very careful when browsing, because this is important.

It is really the best to check our own wallet for the security purposes. There are many users who had got hack their wallet lately.  We should be very careful next time because hackers are everywhere.

I partially agree with you here. The Ledger Nano S is indeed one of the best ways to secure our bitcoins, but saving our money on an exchange is far from safe. For example, several million dollars worth NEM was stolen from a crypto exchange which potentially screwed many big whales who invested and stored their coins on that exchange. Storing our coins on an exchange is convenient, but risky which I feel is not worth it. Desktop wallets or online wallets like MEW are much safer in this regard which is why I recommend not storing your coins on any exchange.

Scammer should be feared more than hackers! Hackers are not likely to pick on your individual account. Hackers will also have to go through a lots of hard work to brute force your account if it is even possible for them to do so. Follow standard practice of keeping your account safe and you should be okay.

[rabs]

This is part of game where ever you go will find such kind of threats but we can minimize or avoid these with highly secured tools.If you want to save your investment use valid wallets and protect with different methods like two factor authentication etc.

as long as you not do anything, no download suspicious thing, get phising site and you already said already secured your email, number and 2fa, i think you already good. just hope there are no hacker that get access to site's database

[dangershadow]

Exchange wallets are only good for small amounts that you use for daily trading and if you have large amounts you should probably go for Personal wallets.

I would Recommend Ledger Wallet as I am personally using it and it safe and always in front of my eyes.

Who isnt afraid of scammers/hackers. We all know they are the people who are to greedy. They want to earn more. They victimized newbies or beginners.if you dont want to nbe hacked or spammed. Be carefull. Keep you wallet for youself only. Always secure youtr wallet.

[PalmerLaura]

Don't worry, dude. Of course when it comes to money things got serious but you can't change what you can't change. You did your best, provided 100% security. Other things don't depend on you so just relax and hope for the best.

Nope, as long as your coin is on others (Meaning you are not the coin holder), you are not safe.
If you put coins in the exchange, you technically are the owner ship, but the real coins holder are the exchanges not you

[NEERAJ ANAND]

If you want to keep your coins safe, you always have them in your personal wallet.Keep it, and do not show anyone your private key.

if you not trust the exchange just withdraw it and send to your wallet, because if you hold in exchanger or any online wallet that you not have a private key, this is so fatal for you, if anytime the exchanger get hacked your fund is lose

[DanielRR1997]

It's generally a good idea to store your Bitcoins in a wallet where you control the private keys, rather than on an exchange where they control the private keys and could go out of business or be lost. But different wallets offer different levels of protection. And different exchanges offer different levels of protection. Some wallets include peer-to-peer trading functionality today. And, in the future, some exchanges will offer decentralized trading so that you can trade directly from your wallet and private keys that you control.

[S3rj0]

I think it’s not a good idea to leave your coins on exchanges. I suggest you to buy hardware wallet like ledger nano and transfer your funds out of there if you are planning to hodl them.

[Bay_Harbour_Butcher]

you should move it to another wallet like myetherwallet or metamask, and I personally do not really trust the exchanger, for example like etherdelta incident ever hacked by hackers, and this is what makes me do not want to keep altcoin in any exchanger
