Hackers have been here from the start. The lack of regulatory over watch also helps them in getting away with the hacks easily. The ignorance crypto users show with the security of their coins is huge. Also the social media sites allowing hacking and phishing websites to advertise helps them.

I think hackers are everywhere if there is a big money involve right? So once you have a coin in cryptocurrency you have to deposit in safest place were having a P2P coin instead of putting in wallet having a weak and unsecure data security. Otherwise, you do more research for securing your coin or money to prevent from hacking.

Are there a lot of hackers now in the crypto's world ? I mean, it a place not totally safe, because of it's quit new. Do you think hackers can change the crypto economy for their own benefit ?
Of course, its the usually thing to see hackers in any projects that has involvement with money. They are good at seizing that opportunity. And not only cryptocurrency because scammers are everywhere in our society, there are in any business establishment, they are in the government too. Its pretty surprising but its the truth. In crypto, one have to strive hard to protect themselves because its hard to see who to blame.

Hackers did change the way people think and that's why exchanges and digital wallet have tighten the security of their systems. Trading now can be difficult if ever if you think of trading because of the issues in a hacking incident every where which triggers the community to spread out and look for a much better wallet and exchange.

Yes, exchanges wallet way improving with this block chain technology, mostly hacker are scamming the people who don't have much experience about the wallet managing they are loose the coins. By giving their private keys to unknown people.

Actually there are not lots of hackers, but rather there are many scams and phishings. I don't know if anyone has been hacked and his coins were stolen so far. They are usually personal cases.
Yeah I've been hearing about scammers. Can someone tell me more about them and how to be aware against it ?

Programmers have been here from the begin. The absence of administrative over watch additionally causes them in escaping with the hacks effortlessly. The numbness crypto clients appear with the security of their coins is gigantic. Likewise the web-based social networking destinations permitting hacking and phishing sites to publicize encourages them.

Even not only to this new crypto world but also old traditional online transactions there would be always a hacker.Where these identities do really make advantage into other people and do things which will make them money.You should not be surprised and yet we are making transactions and talking about money here on crypto then no doubt this is one of their sweet spot because we know money would always been sweet. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Hackers' work is hacked.They always have the opportunity to do these abominable things.And they can wait a lot and hack money with intelligence.They are very clever and intelligent.But in the currency world,the number of scams more than hackers.

I suggest you protect yourself the proper gear. Always use a linux computer for all of your crypto and privacy needs. Windows is good for video games and graphical stuff but privacy. No way. Always use 2FA and a hardware wallet if you can help it. Good luck and be careful with your info out there!

Hackers always find a new way to hack something, so they always updated their knowledge and ability, crypto is the new world with decentralised technology, the hackers got difficult to break through the wallet security but they used the other way like phising or click link, but once the hacker succees in breaking your wallet then you can't do anything to retrieve your coin, so it can say it's a heaven for hackers

Well it wpuld be quite obvious that this market will be a target of hackers since a lot of money is involved in crypto. That's why everyone who deals with btc and the likes would have to be really careful especially with their wallets and private keys. It's pretty secure only if you take precautions

yes that's true hackers always find new ways to hack something because they are so brilliant when it comes to technology such hacking through internet even you have a very secure wallet and etc they can create news strategies for it. So i suggest also to stay away on any advertising link around the internet 'cause sometimes hackers always hiding on it without knowing. Especially here in forum always ignore those user always send pm with link. 'cause it's either a phishing link or virus that can get our personal information. Yes im serious i also experience it the most is newbies , which is always send pm to convince me to browse the link and download something without any reference if its legit or not. So stay away on it guys for our safety.

Yeah I've been hearing about scammers. Can someone tell me more about them and how to be aware against it ? I guess there has been a lot of discussion about this online and even so many on this forum that could help you get your questions answered, but for the sake of helping others who may need an answer, the most important thing is to beef up your own security. Always try to make use of additional securities like 2FA, SMS login, and make sure you are using a strong password on any exchange you are in. Disregard some emails as they may be containing some phishing links and you do not want to be putting your details in any of them and most importantly, before inputting your details on any site, always look out for the green lock button beside the URL.

Yes there are hackers everywhere, not just in cryptocurrency. So we must be extra careful especially in keeping our private keys to safety. We dont know who these hackers are, so be mindful always.

Technology without human involvement is pretty much safe. The moment you add human to the equation, the whole system becomes hackable.
