The simpliest way to keep your bitcoin from hackers is that make it sure that no one is around when typing your key or password. You must not save your password or key in your device.

There's actually no complex methods to secure our wallets, even the OP above is enough. The worst case only happens when the users become easy target by hackers specially dealing with offers in phishing sites.

I would advise encrypting your private wallet seeds. I personally use a 24 word meunomic phrase. Your odds of someone guessing your seed is like 1 in quintillion chance. Your odds double with a 24 word seed. Practicly unhackable.

The best way to keep safe is ti play safe in crypto. Do not save wallet login details in emails because they are susceptible to attacks due to the frequent  forms filled with our emails in crypto. Never follow unknown links sent to email addresses because these links may lead to phisphing sites.

The best way to keep your bitcoin is keeping it away from exchange. Storing bitcoins at wallet is good than staying it at exchange. You can store at soft wallet, electrum and mycellium. But be sure that you are faraway from phishing sites because this is the primary reason why we are being hacked.

- We must have our own way to keep our Bitcoin safe. The account we use must have a unique password, and not easily guessed.

- Do not equate account passwords associated with Bitcoin with other accounts such as social media, because it is vulnerable to hack, let alone the followers of its social media a lot.

- Use two-factor or 2FD authentication. Additional security layers are easy to apply. Quite a few apps like Google Authenticator as a 2FD installation provider. In essence, it works as a second security layer after the password. When you've entered a keyword into your account, the system will request a two-factor authentication code. The six-digit code does not need to be memorized because it changes every 30 seconds.

- And one more, do not trust everyone. Suppose we provide information about our Bitcoin account to our Mother, it is not impossible that our mother could just tell it to someone else. With the spread of such information will increase the potential for breaking.

Very useful pieces of advice. I would suggest using a hard wallet to secure yourself from hackers. A long and complicated password will also be helpful in keeping your crypto money safe. It is a good habit to change your passwords from time to time too.

I think that to store all of the bitcoin assets that you have, you have to be able to save them seriously and don't consider them to be trivial, because the security of the wallet that you have is very important, and make sure you provide very high security for all cryptocurrency wallets that you have, from authentic security and others such as code configuration via email and devices that are connected to you directly.

Both exchange and wallet is risky, but it will be harder if we only store our coins in wallet and not use exchange, especially for traders who need to trade their coins, they will need to send coins to wallet every they want to trade it.

The very simple thing to keep my bitcoin and other digital assets to hackers is to always take good care of my wallet's private key and credentials away from computer. I usually save them in a hard wallet and keep it in a place where i only know.

Well, I prefer with this one, 2FD is an additional layer of security for wallet ID which aims to ensure that we are the only people who can access the account, even though there are others who know our password. During this time after I used the 2FD application I wasn't worried about the wallet that we had.

As all have suggested 2FA is the most popular way to keep your Bitcoins with an added security feature.Also always check for https in the Url bar when entering your credentials in any Crypto website.Stay safe from phishing.

Best way to keep your bitcoin out of hackers is to follow the right and accepted methods and majority of people who lost there bitcoins and investments have failed to do that most of the time and hackers always take advantages from those opportunities so below are some of the points that I have come across to secure bitcoin wallet from hackers,

1. It is always better If you can use a hardware wallet because unlike online wallets hackers can never hack into offline wallets and this method is much secure if you are a long term investor or you hodl token in long term

2. Always create a backup of your wallet because will help full to recover information in any case you do a mistake or an failure of your computer

3. Secure the wallet by using a strong password and encrypting it and that will be really help to protect the wallet

4. If you have an online wallet please use a two factor authentication and it will definitely ad an extra layer of security to your wallet

5. Always keep your private keys in a safer manner and never use your email accounts or other online data stores to back up your private keys in any case

Above are the once that I have come across so far and there must be more and a bitcoin holder should always stay alert with new information to secure there tokens because no one can find our bitcoins when something happens unlike in the real world when we lost fiat money so better to protect in the first place than loosing

Without a doubt if we are using an online wallet 2FA gives an extra layer of security and I haven't see anywhere that it can be break easily by hackers which is the reason most crypto exchanges provide us the same option an a significant method to follow

Make a bitcoin account password as complicated as possible, but it's easy to remember, keep it well where we consider it to be safe enough, and no one ever knows the bitcoin account password we have. If we can do this correctly, then most likely the bitcoin that we have will avoid hackers.

Though bitcoin promises to provide the safest transactions among all the crypto currencies or even among all the investment as its transactions does not involve any third party seizure so the transaction between two is confidential and no third person has the right to see the transaction between two and then secondly it’s transaction provides user anonymity so it is the safest among all but still hackers are very smart so for keeping your bitcoins safe, never share your keys and passwords to anyone.
