I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?
I think hack is unavoidable eventually. You just need to be prepared for that and try to secure your account the most, and also you need to diversify your capital, not holding it the particular one account.

Probably everything is able to be hacked, but the main problem is not in the code, or in the security system. The main problem is you'll be human. 99% of every hack that ever been performed, is because human made some mistakes before that.
Yes, the loopholes of your own mistakes in the past are loophole for hackers to penetrate and steal the property of investors. Take measures to protect yourself and your property in the cryptocurrency market because you certainly do not want to be hacked one day and take away your assets.

Any piece of software can be hacked under the right circumstances, but hackers are not going to take the hard road unless they have to, most people think of hackers as guys that can enter in any computer using code, and while the very best fit that definition most hackers use social engineering, basically they are going to deceive you to click a link that infects your computer and then they can steal your password and private key.

Everything computer related is hackable. So of course. You always have to be careful to have the latest most secure wallet.
This is key, most people do not take the time to update their computers they think it is just a waste of time, and while I am not going to deny that sometimes it can be extremely annoying to update your computer and sometimes programs that work perfectly break down after an update, you still need to update your computer and its programs regularly or risk the possibility of being hacked with a known vulnerability.

Only if you give your key password to others will you be hacked.
Cryptocurrency wallets is comparatively safe compared with other wallet, and youcan keep you coin in it.

Everything can be hacked, after it depends on if it's a cold stored wallet or how they keep their secret keys

Any digital wallet can be hacked if the private key is exposed. A private key is exposed only via user error (saving your private key in your email or desktop for example and having somebody find it). So, keep it carefully.

Well, directly it is not possible but if you provide some details I helped buy some kind of action to the hacker then, of course, it is possible. Is not harder than a cheese. Suppose you clicked on a hyperlink are installed a malicious software into your PC where you have the wallet because the hacker will have the access to your wallet files. If you need security you can just encrypt a lot of stuff you can put the data like your wallet 5 in hardware wallet like ledger wallet you can encrypt your private key even though the hacker gets it cannot decrypt it without your access.

If you are going to write that you can not crack a crypto currency purse - do not believe it or you are a complete lol. Even if you keep your keys for entry very carefully, you still do not have a guarantee that the swindler, if he wants, will not get into your wallet. Now the technology is being perfected with great speed, and we through our computer can not protect ourselves by 100%.

The reason why there are popular market's is because of the security that is really good which no hackers can actually penetrate their wallet so just use a wallet or exchanger that is being trusted by everyone to avoid problems in the future.

I think that this crypto currency wallets can not be easily hacked , because if this is so , all bitcoin holders are already complaining about hacking, there maybe an incident of hacking that happen to the wallet of my friend ,we doubted that one of the admin stole the tokens after the distributions , they manipulate the stealing of token, or it was intercepted by the other party in the ICO project, my friend lost hundred thousand tokens.

I don't think so. I believe that if these kinds of cryptowallets can get hacked easily, then many people must be complaining now and een in some social media. But there is almost none. Which means that a cryptocurrency wallet has multi layered protection. It involves money investment so this should be continuously developed.

Hacked into a good job. I love cryptocurrency and technology in the right direction. I believe that they can do it is a new way to have the right direction, but we can do to the fullest extent possible. Cause I think it is to say, I do a good thing that you need an online business, I do a lot of cryptocurrency

Bitcoin core wallet as far i know is safe. If hacker can hack that wallet, its really amazing with hackers doing. As far we keep our private key, i am believe hackers can not hack into our wallet. Its very safe because its blockchain

You are right, developers are continuously developing their wallets to avoid possible hacking in the near future, for me I think crypocurrencies wallets will not be hack.

Myself with that have not yet encountered, but have friends which have already been hacked for a simple reason - carelessness! If you are going to store your savings on a working computer, then this is a big mistake, it is better for this purpose to buy a cheap laptop with a clean operating system!

Why you should buy a cheap laptop with clean operating system when you can just buy a hardware wallet which can give you the best security that you are looking for a wallet to store cryptocurrencies. Buying a hardware wallet is far way better and safer compare to buying a laptop with a slightly higher price compare to hardware wallets that are cheap and affordable.

with the advancement of technology and the ability of people who continue to increase does not close the possibility that the wallet bitcoin and other crypto wallets can be retashed, then any provider of bitcoin wallet is expected to continue to develop its security so that not many loopholes that can be entered by people who commit cheats that can harm others.

of course, as good as any program there must be a shortage that can be exploited by irresponsible people like hackers, especially for online wallet, wallet with internet method is very vulnerable to hacking, because people can do theft by using the internet from wherever he is.
