Of course no system is safe there are even exploits for cold storage. I believe it was intercepting traffic from a computer to poison the pc with malware then hijack the private keys. The thing is no matter how secured a system or software is there will always be flaws and ways to hack it and steal crypto's from you.

[Trish14]

Any wallet is vulnerable to hacks, because there are several angles of attack. A hacker might not even have to exploit the

wallet software or code. They can use the "Man in the Middle" attack strategy where they intercept the data before it is

send to the wallet or they can use a Phishing strategy where they re-direct you to their fake site or wallet software. They can

even install Malware on your computer to capture all the data that you enter to re-use it on another computer. They can steal

your seed when you create the wallet or grab your private key, when you use the wrong method to create Paper wallets for

cold storage. 

I believed that it will hacked when we put it anywhere about our password if we will not put it in a safe place.To avoid that it will not happened to us we must carefull of such matters.

Nowadays no one is safe in crypto-sphere because online wallets are vulnerable from hacking, we can only use hardware wallet to have much better security but who knows what a hacker can do in the near future because they always find a ways to break the security to be able to hack our funds.

I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?

Everything can be hacked. Take that into your mind. If you are constantly monitoring the news, not just about cryptocurrency but also about political and others, you will realize that even the most secured institutions such as central banks, military and intelligence agencies, etc are also victims of hacking incidents. This simply means that hackers are a force not to be underestimated. We just hope it is not our wallet that gets hacked.

Some moths ago there was a vulnerability found in the bitcoin lightweight wallet electrum, the vulnerability was so important that the forum administrator found it necessary to alert the forum members about it, however the most common way to lose your bitcoin is to get phished and download a wallet with malware already installed in it so always verify you are downloading the wallet from the correct address.

It's truly possible, there are many hacker that wants to steal your funds to gain money just remember hackers is everywhere anytime they can attacked. Hackers nowadays are very smart and determined to steal anything and you only need to do is be careful on what information that you give in any site or phishing emails.

Hackers will not just steal your stuffs unless you give them the chance and by chance I mean, not using good antivirus program, not staying at alert most of the time and being careful from just clicking any link and so on. All these things matter for a secure environment.

It is just like you having a house with no fence, no additional security, and so on, and then you leave a huge amount of money in your compound and expect some thieves not to come rob you. Desktop wallet like they always say is just as secured as your PC is.

[longskie0327]

Yes! it can be hacked specially now a days hackers are up to something-updated and smart, they can steal your token, your money in just an instant if you did not secure your wallet and make a wrong move and you go into phising site without being aware, nor do not put up security devise in your wallet.

Yeah, they can! One thing with desktop wallet is that, they are as safe as your PC and an attack on your system whereas you not having a good antivirus or something can easily jeopardize that wallet and make it vulnerable, most especially since your private key is stored within the system.

So, it is always important to always keep your PC secured, stay away from non-trustable website or unknown sites, do not just click any link that you see all in the name of downloads most especially, and have a good antivirus and you will be safe.

I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?

Yes, it is possible. It actually happened already that a friend of mine lost most of his earnings because his wallet was hacked. I believe that the reason why we need to secure and take good care of our private keys is just to get rid of the hackers around us.

[kisscoin]

Perhaps everything is possible in our world! Technology is actively developing in all areas and in the areas of hackers too) If the security features and codes will also be developed and always a little ahead of hackers, then wallets will be protected... 

[AnalynCadiz]

Yes it is possible to be hacked. Our technology nowadays is very advanced making hackers able to access someones private account. Best thing you could do is to avoid entering into phishing sites. Check the sites carefully before entering and kept your private keys safe and secure.

[CHENIEN]

Yes, there is a possibilities that cryptocurrency wallets can be hack for some reasons or something beyond human error on how people personally secure their private informations that easily detect by someone like for example if we used public business internet outlet that a lots of people who access daily. So for the security reasons, just provide a personal used gadgets for the safety and security.

[kalawang]

I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?

Probably yes. Our wallet can be hacked depending in how we treasured our information cause hackers nowadays are so skilled they can hacked you even thay didnt know you so much too. The only one who depend to be great currency someday, the future of cryptocurrency.

I think yes because they are still online it means if yhere is a person that really wanted to hack then of course they will do their best to hack that system and yes they are hackable. I think that is why there are some offline wallets for the people to store their cryptocurrency without any trouble without any doubt because that is really secured not even if yoù twll somebody what is the password of it and that will be stolen from you because that is like a flash drive thing. So be aware that cryptocurrency wallets can be hack us offline wallet to be mucu safer.

[talenah kotang]

It could happen because nowadays technology is getting more sophisticated and hackers are getting smarter. All depends on the security system of the wallet and also from your own. Keep all the important information you have.

[mahilchii]

Any wallet can be hacked if you are not careful enough or keep your private key unsafe. The security of the wallet not only depends on the wallet by itself but also who use it should make their password or private key very carefully. I suggest to have a hardware wallet to keep you private keys safe rather than storing it in your computer.

[Escan0r]

It depends on how you wear your wallet. And also it depends on the wallet you use safe or not. But I'm sure it might be very difficult to hack a wallet that has double security. The point is never to give access to the people closest to you.

[ethereumhunter]

nothing is safe 100% and we know that. cryptocurrency wallet can be hacked although I don't' know how to hack the wallet, I think people which have a high-skill programming can do that. but as long as we can keep our wallet safe, then we don't have to be afraid to be hacked especially if we never tell other people about what coin that we have. it is better to keep silence and never give any info about our wallet because it will be safer for that wallet.

[ymirymir]

I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?

Yes it is possible that's why we are advised to keep our private keys and important accounts safe and secured. We should not entrust it to anyone who we don't know or to any unsafe sites. We should keep our private keys secured all the time because hackers are just around.
