It depends if by means of bruteforce then it will take a long time to decode bitcoin seeds or private keys maybe you need 40 years by using this attack usually a hacker penetrates a system of a victim by using malwares if you dont have enough protection in your system then this method will be successful in less time youre keys might be in danger if you have huge amount of cryptocurrencies then it must be better to stored it separately in one cold storage to avoid this kind of attacks.

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

All locks can be broken, as well as all wallets.

However, beyond a certain level of difficulty, it becomes practically impossible to do it.

Money is lost due to carelessness and inattention, hackers do not need to force wallets.

Scammers know lots of ways how to get from you your private informations so if you just say some of those you could get hacked easily.

Yes. The very reason is by always logging in of a wallet owner which is giving a chance to the hijacker to hack your account specially when you keep on doing this without bookmarking the URL of the real site. And of course when you lost your private key or by giving it to others. Keep safe my friend and better to have an off line wallet if you have a big fund.

It is important to remember that all kinds of events are possible in the world of information. Although there are intensive security measures, it is possible to infiltrate or steal our information in some way even though we use antivirus-style programs. Therefore, it is necessary to take all kinds of precautions, but it is beneficial not to leave the precautions at hand.

Scammers are wise, so we better be wiser and more strategic. We must keep security as upmost priority. It's our responsibility to back up our wallet, use strong password, to make it more difficult for hackers to access your wallet and steal your coins.

No it can't be hacked but someone can access your wallets if they have your private key or password so be careful and be careful of phishing
It's highly-important to secure wallet by creating a strong random password, and having a back up to retrieve funds or assets whenever there is a software failure or if device is lost or stolen. This also protects against thieves or hackers. It can provide very high levels of security if used correctly.

Since our technology is advanced , we can't deny the fact that almost everything is hackable already. Scammers and hackers always find ways to steal people's earning so we must be careful all the time. It is important that we'll secure all our wallets and private keys well.

Yes they can be hacked if you are not careful and mistakenly give out your password or if you dont put 2fa’s on your wallets then there are so many chances of you getting hacked. Hackers and scammers now are wise, just one mistake of you and once they see the error you’ve made then its a goodbye to your holdings.

It is the one reason why bitcoin is not yet being legalized. We cannot assure the safety of bitcoin. We cannot expect bitcoin to have more security. In this kind of scenario, our own bitcoin/virtual money can be hacked and we cannot make it go back again, we cannot assure the safety of our own money.

Yes it is, based on my experience, I find it so risky. I believe that it is still better to keep our earnings safe and secured by keeping our private keys safe as well. We should not entrust it to anybody. As for me, it is safer to secure our earnings in a hard wallet.

it should not be possible because the cryptocurrency wallet is connected to some blockchain server in the world so it will be hard to get hacked, you better keep your private key as safe as possible.

No bitcoin and other cryptocurrency wallets can't be hacked if your computer or the device they you are running on isn't compromised, but if you access your wallet on any other device that is compromised and the attacker captures your password or credentials then your funds can be hacked pretty easily.

Computer literates these days are so knowledgeable that they can do everything and manipulate everything on their internet. Everything can be hacked in the technology world because these hackers know how it is functioning. In order to avoid these hacks you have to be careful not to share your informations online because these things can be the root for your account so that you can be hacked.

if we don't protect crypto currency wallet with step 2 verification then it produce threat to wallets so cryptocurrency wallets are hackable only when we handle the wallet with utmost security

 Our safety is always depends on how we keep our wallet, we need to take care of our bitcoin to avoid those hackers hack it, make sure that the wallet you are using is secure.

that is the down thing about cryptocurrency , because  it can be hacked not too hard, I mean they just need viruses to get an account or a link to be clicked just to get an account . Although cryptocurrency is a great way to earn money or to be engaged in trading , it also has a downfall because of fraud and scames making it negative on some people if we are going to compare it to stock market which has more security than here in cryptocurrency.

In the generation we are on today, almost everything can be hacked. The only thing we can do is to minimize or even eliminate the risk of being hacked through avoidance procedures, like keeping your private key out of your computer or laptop and put it to something flash drive, or even get some trezor, or other offline wallets, providing your wallets 2FA and etc.
