Off course, cryptocurrency wallets can also be hacked because now there are so many great hackers so the only thing we can do is used a a trusted wallet, and always make sure that we used a strong password and lastly dont share how much money we have.

Now a days nothing is impossible with hackers and they are everywhere.  Still, we could at least do something to prevent them from hacking our account.  As much as possible, do not use other's devices when opening important accounts.  We may not aware they have saved password application on and it could easily leave your account details in it.  So as not to do that on public internet shops.  Many hackers leave hidden apps on some public PCs that could open someone's important accounts and they visit often on those public PCs to check if somebody just clicked on their bait.  So be much aware.

Usually is no breaking wallets, and exchanges on these wallets and coins. Blockchain vulnerability to attacks is very low. I don't think you should worry about those wallets.

The possibility of these hacked attacks is very difficult, you can be hacked by computer surveillance software then steal private keys to get your property on these wallets. Be careful in your activities on the internet as it is a very nasty virus spreading environment.

Wallets especially when in digital platform always can be hacked. There are numerous ways in which hackers can penetrate your system and cause precious files to be stolen. Best to keep password and private keys in super safe storages. Delete emails containing passwords and be careful with clickbaits.

Yes. I believe everything in online can be hacked especially our cryptocurrency wallets. Online wallets are being target by hackers because of the amount inside that wallet. With that, we have to be very careful and not to play safe or be calm that our money is safe. We really have no control on the database where it is saved. Do not put all of your eggs in one basket

I do not know of any wallet that could be hacked. This is possible only when the user does not know how to safely store private data.

This. Most probably if your wallet was hacked it is because of you not being careful with it.
However, if we consider exchanges as wallets, then sometimes they got hacked.

nothing is impossible, including the possibility of hacking crypto currency wallets, every time hackers are always trying to find a gap to be able to take over your crypto currency wallet, here I've also experienced it suddenly there is a transaction out of my wallet without to my knowledge

Most probably, hackers are very intelligent which can always have a way to hack cryptocurrency wallets. Even the Pentagon security system was breach then how much more the cryptocurrency which has only limited security.

I think it can. considering the fact that I saw a thread that talks about a campaign that got hacked and lost a lot of Btc from its investors because their system got hacked. now, the manager is liable to return all those lost with his or her own money or crypto.



BIG WINNER!

You can only be responsible for any hacker activities on your wallets, I.e if you give out information of your wallets like the private keys to any strangers, even those managing bounties will tell you their admin will never ask you for your private key, but if you are careful with your wallets security it can't be hacked

The most important thing about cryptocurrency wallet is to protect your private key!
Desktop/mobile wallet is relatively safe, but pay attention to the invasion of viruses!
The online encrypted wallet is vulnerable to hacking, and the private key will be stored on the server. The security of the server is not guaranteed!

Yes it can be hacked because hackers always find new ways to hack. We are required to 2FA  to avoid wallet being hacked. I will prefer to use hardware wallets like trezor to have a better experiences on using wallets. Don't use web wallets.
Good suggestion those hardware wallet are offline wallet that you could get use to store you crypto and the best thing is that no one could even sneak upon through the internet and phished out your digital wallet. However, there are some online digital wallets also that are really secured like MEW for the ERC20 coins. I do believe on this wallet and it seems very secured.

I think cyber crimes still have ways to get money including cybercrime in crypto, so I think the entire crypto wallet still potential to be hacked, it's just that the potential can be minimized or not

I see that the Cryptocurrency wallet is very safe, however, we must be careful and should not be careless in using it. moreover, we often open our wallets from computers or smartphones that are not ours, because all of our data can be recorded there, everything can happen due to crime not only because of the intention of the criminal, but because there is a chance too! and the most important thing is, we must maintain the email or password that we use to register the wallet, not to be known by others. because it is the main door of a hacker, can steal assets in our wallet.
