Yes I think MEW is still good other different wallets and i have been used this for many times and don't have any problem sadly last time MEW has been hack by DNS attack and many users has steal their assets so i think MEW will be more secure due of this hacking attack.

I am a bounty hunter so MEW it is the most practical alternative for me to receive wages, for hacking maybe only 1: 1000 possibilities, if that happens then it is a bad luck for me, it is good to use hardware wallet but in my opinion it is too complicated

With the recent hack, I assume a lot of people will switch to something else, what do you think?

I still recommend using a hardware wallet over the safety benefits though.

Yes i use MEW because the most bounty I joined required MEW to use. But even though they do not required it, I think I will still use MEW but not often.
The wallet I am always loyal is coins.ph because that is the only wallet that can convert bitcoin into Philippine Peso and now I love coins.ph because it we can now convert eth directly to Peso by using it.

I think i doesn't require hardware wallet this time because I just use MEW just for save my bounty token. I think I will buy hardware wallet if I have got many token or want to invest money on crypto.

I am still using myetherwallet. I am still confident to it. And I feel secured even I have read that some are hacked.
Maybe because they gave their private key on some web. That will be the reason of hacking and losing of their tokens and valuable.
But if any other security is more secure, why not try it?

The main danger when using MEW is a chance of providing your private key to a malicious site after which you immediately lose all your ETH and tokens. To avoid this situation you should always check whether a connection is secure by looking at the address bar.

Here's an example example of a phishing site were connection is not secure



I have easily found it by googling "mi ether wallet". That's what they do, they exploit your mistakes, so please be very cautious.

Also, apart from looking for a secure connection you have to double check whether the address is looking exactly like this:

https://www.myetherwallet.com/

Btw, I just checked, the phishing site in my example is the top one you see even when googling the write words: "my ether wallet" because that's a paid Ad. Thanks a bunch, Google!

In everything we do that with relation to crypto all are with risk behind our daily activities and maybe our own imagination too. MEW is one of the biggest wallet that used by crypto new members which have none enough idea about the wallet safetiness and security. I use MEW because I do believe that the team of this project are not stealers and scammers. They are trusted and have a good services to clients.

Yes, I am still using MEW, because MEW is my first wallet that I ever use and for me it is the only one safe wallet that I have ever used.

I'm still using MEW as well, as long as you carefully and bookmark MEW site. I think will be okay. or you can add Metamask so will more safety.

Those who have higher level of security still prefer mew. Those who have hardware wallets are still safe from phising sites. The mew developers are trying their best to make our altcoins secured and other ethereum wallets are doing the same too. Mew is special because you can store any altcoins that are erc20 and almost altcoins are erc20. Metamask is a good alternative for hardware wallet in terms of safety so try to install it.

Well said. Though I dont get the ad when I google that, it still goes to show the importance of double checking everything, the link, bookmark, etc. in detail

I still use MEW, but so far, although I'm always cautious, I haven't experienced any form of exception yet, but I also want to know that I can use other hardware purses as open ideas and changes.

Yes, I still use myetherwallet. Although there have been some negative news about it recently, I think it is still the best wallet available. There is no reason to choose another wallet. You also cannot guarantee that other wallets are absolutely safe.
for me MEW is still safe you just need to secure your private key and avoid visiting those suspicious sites that can be prone to phishing and update your antivirus. Bookmark those frequent site that you are visiting.
