There are numerous application abd programs that offer security for your bitcoin and other cryptocurrency investments. Coins.ph in the philippines is a very versatile mobile application that both offer security and transactions within the app for bitcoin and ethereum. Anothdr way of storing coins is through what we call hardware wallets. Trezor and Ledger are the best ones for me as they offer 2 point security that will surely give nice security for your bitcoin abd altcoin investments

It sounds like your friends private keys were compromised. No wallet is safe if you lose or expose your private keys. Watch out for phishing websites if you're using myetherwallet. Bookmark it and always triple check the URL.
I think if using Myetherwallet it is best to buy Ledger Nano S because it will guarantee more security. I personally have been trading in this market for a long time and Ledger should be considered the safest wallet in the Cryptocurrency market because it helps me hold better properties than all other wallet.

Do not use 1 wallet address for your tokens just like my friend also who had reported that his tokens innhis digital wallet has been stolen. The password has been cracked and for sure the hacker would left yo nothing even a single token. Well just consider storing you tokens in a application digital wallet like desktop wallet that uses offline method so as not to compromise your password or any details that could to your digital wallet be hacked. You can also ise paper wallet foe storing your bitcoin or ether but i do not know if paper wallet supported ether or other altcoins. Much better trade your tokens to bitcoin or ether and store in 3 different digital wallet.

Keepkey, Ledger or Trezor. This is a special hardware wallet where you have to confirm each coin transfer. The point is that the private key will never leave the hardware wallet, it just signs the transactions you confirm manually on the screen where the coins will be sent.

Do not tell your private key and password and bookmarks that you think are important.

since ethereum is not immutable it means storing it also has another huge risk. today you may store ETH and a bunch of tokens, tomorrow they can change everything because they want to and because it is centralized and you lose all that you stored and go back to zero.

One of the easiest and safest way to your account is out it on your wallet your coins.ph because it is also have a password like a ATM card

well for me and I'm trying more eth has a safe place because it has a private key that you hold and it's not easy to steal other likes to get your token and comportable to use. we also have a token that it's secure. in the btc wallet well it's so much simpler that the eth wallet is always the system demanding because it is safer and I can not even say about btc because I also use the btc wallet for my coins.ph and also i uses imtoken wallet but I usually use the eth wallet.

This is also a problem that many people are interested. Today, stealing tokens, eth, btc and many other valuable altcoins are occurring so much, so care must be taken to protect them. For ERC20 and ETH tokens, I usually use MEW, it is too familiar and common. However, when using, you should use the access methods recommended by MEW, absolutely should not be accessed by the private key because it is very easy to leak information.

If you going to keep a big amount of coins i suggest to get a hard wallet or cold storage wallet so no body will compromise your wallet. But for me Metamask wallet and MyEtherewallet is pretty much secured. Maybe your friend sent a wrong address instead giving an ETH add he/she gave private key. Sorry for him/her

If you want to store large amount of expensive tokens and crypto then you should consider buying a hardware wallet. They will store your private keys for you and protect them from any kind of malware. You will be given either 12 or 24 words which can be later used in case your device is destroyed or stolen. Hardware wallets are easy to use and have user friendly interface so you won't have any problems with using them. However, don't buy a hardware wallet if you aren't going to keep anything valuable on it. Hardware wallets are expensive.

For security in my opinion, do not ever tell anyone your private key, and keep it in offline apps like prin on paper, and keep it in a place that only you know. do not open links that are considered suspicious, because now many hackers use, fake web to steal important data that we save.

in my country, Indodax is the safest wallet for now, many of my friends feel comfortable when storing ETH in Indodax, losing ETH is usually caused by a virus-infected PC or the user is accessing a phishing site.

the security in asset storage depends on yourself. secure the assets that we have in order not to be stolen by others must be careful with web pishing, do not carelessly use free wifi because it is very prone to malware, and keep the private key as well as good.

The best way to store your cryptocurrency has always been to store them offline in a hardware wallet or cold storage. If your coins are stored online there is always a possibility for you to get hacked and have all of your coins stolen. If you have coins you are planning to hold for a long time then you need to get a hardware wallet to store them and keep your private keys very safe.

It is very often theft if we do not carefully save or put our wallet in a good place, I save my wallet in bittrex market and give 2FA code to increase security.
there is no statement from the OP where did the tokens and ETH stored so assuming the Op is using myetherwallet or another type of ERC20 storage 2FA is not necessary for those applications and it is dangerous to store a large number of token assets and ETH on a hot wallet storage whether you own the private key or the seed there is no difference if the hackers are desperate enough to target your assets as the risk of getting hacked on wallet influenced by internet is high, better to afford some hardware wallet and if you are broke enough you can buy cheap laptop then use it as a cold storage.

You must ask your friend what wallet did he use for bounty. i guess it was myetherwallet. myetherwallet is best for beginner because it is easy to use, but not really secure. you must use an advanced wallet like metamask. or hardwallet if you want to buy.
