Don't show your privat key anywhere! Better go through the cold wallet. As far as I know this is the safest storage method at the moment. Well, keep it to 2 drives. In no case do not leave the files on your computer, otherwise you are very much at risk of losing everything!

You can keep your MEW safe by ensuring that you are accessing the correct url and always check the SSL certificate is on. For additional security, use a hardware wallet which does not reveal your private key to the browser.

I've just ordered myself a Ledger Nano S for 94 Euro. From what i saw, it is the recommended way to use on the Myethereumwallet.com when i try to log in there. If i try to log in using the Json file or the Private key i get the message "This is not a recommended way to access your wallet."

how to protect your wallet myetherwallet.com Use ledger nano or trezor to protect your coins , You could use it in myetherwallet and the hackers couldn't access it if you have your coins in the hardware wallet.

I would say that to protect myetherwallet you might add a metamask extension to your browser, that you usually use.

how to protect your wallet myetherwallet.com Better you can use metamask instead of myetherwallet. Dont copy past your private key directly to my etherwallet, the risk factor is high. Also dont go scam website or dont click any add. If you click your token will be stolen.So protect you private key and dont past anywhere. metamask will be the right solution to avoid hacking.

I would also add to all the above tips - check the balance status through third-party sites such as etherscan and do not go to MEW without the need.

how to protect your wallet myetherwallet.com Need to use METAMASK. Nowhere to enter your passwords from the MEW wallet. Do not go through unfamiliar links. Trade only on proven and popular exchanges I think if you follow these rules then your wallet will be safe.

Etherscan is just the ethereum blockchain explorer mate. I think you got wrong about this MyEtherWallet. I suggest you to go with the Google chrome store and add the Metamask on your preferred browsers. You find the steps to encrypt your wallet with Metamask in the given videos mate. Then you cannot go with the private key pasting way to access to your wallet,. that is not at all recommended way to make the money.

There are many different options and the most important of all is your mindfulness, once you visit the MEW site make sure that the connection is protected by the HTTPS protocol, I think that in this way you can protect yourself a little.

Bookmark myetherwallet and download cryptonite would help your chances of using a phishing site. Using a hardware wallet in combination with MEW would be a wise method but if you don't have a hardware wallet then using the json file would be a better option than private key.

Check the correctness of the site, the address of the site should start at https: //, the left side of the address should have a secure connection.

how to protect your wallet myetherwallet.com To protect our wallet in myetherwallet is first to make sure that we access the right URL. Second, we have to be careful to copy and paste our wallet address and private key. Lastly, you have to save your files in a safe place and always back up the files just in case you lost the original copy.

Use a hardwallet and im sure you are going to be secured and those shit hackers wont have any good chance of getting your private keys o hack your wallet,you should install metamask extension too so that phishing sites would be block in your browser,these two are just the basic things that you need to have so that you will be much secured.

which I do by saving MEW private key with nobody knowing except myself. And I also have to be careful while accessing the site to protect my private key from others.

1. Beware of phishing sites and links. Check it very carefully and do not use any suspicious. 2. Use Metamask. This browser application works like a secure bridge between you and your wallet. 3. Forget about using your private keys anywhere, because in this way you are very close to losing your crypto

I use a separate computer and that computer only serves for the use of myethwallet purse. Also when I work I will never use myethwallet purse. Because there are many hackers can steal private lock my wallet
