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

Yes, because of the high technology now everything is possible in the world wide web. So let's always take care of our wallets and never open it in untrusted websites.

Yes, I already hear a lot of this case before, hackers are really smarter now and they can create malwares that can be able to get our private keys or send coins from our wallets.

They can be hacked into those purses that are not protected by a hardware key. You need not be lazy and order yourself this.

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

There is no impossible for the hackers, unless if stupidity will apply for the individuals by giving their password, or private key or any information about their personal data account. Second, don't just click some fishing site or else you might get be hack if you click wrong site where it can be the open gate for the hacker anyway.

In my own opinion, cryptocurrency wallets can only be hacked if you accidentally logged into a phishing site but aside from that, using wallets like mew is very safe for different investors and traders.

Cryptocurrency is the current craze among tech-savvy investors trying to make the most of its soaring price, but behind the scenes the world of cryptocurrency is rife with cyber criminals, cryptojacking and money laundering is everywhere. All you gonna do is just be cautious when you enter a site. Your Cryptocurrency wallet can't be hacked unless you have prevented it first. Online wallet services can be hacked if you can somehow have access to email ID or password of that guy. Web wallet services are easier to hack if the security isn't taken care of. Offline wallets are also nearly impossible to hack as they are stored on a computer which never goes online. The transactions are signed offline and then broadcasted on a different computer. I hope this helps you.

All wallets can be hacked, if your private key is known by someone else, another person or hacker will be very easy to open your wallet using your private key, and pshising on malicious websites opens up opportunities for hackers to steal your data.

Anti virus and 20 digit and longer password is your friend. Not sure if its 100% safe but its something to start with. Most people that got hacked seems to have non-encrypted wallet.

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.

I think it's true if email can be hacked, then all access that uses email is also potentially to hack, if the wallet mentioned uses email, then the wallet has the potential to be hacked

Yes cryptocurrency wallet can really get hacked because there are a lot of people nowadays could hacked in any security features, that is why it is not that safe to store all of your holdings in a single wallet.

If you have lost your password or key, your crypto wallet will not be secure. And it's not 100% safe when you store your wallet in your phone or laptop. You need to keep things safe.

Ofcourse there's always a possibility of hacking. For the users of these wallets, it is always advisable to double check the link of the site where you are and make sure it matches the original one. Phishing attacks are conducted by mimicking the visual layout of the site to fool the user into entering private keys.

As for the website, if the coding are done poorly and there are exploits and weak spots in the code, hackers can always find a way entering the systems and using it for themselves. A code that is well-maintained and a system that is always monitored can prevent these attacks to cause any damage.

No one is safe from the internet, especially if you are a well known person or you are involve in a money trading investment. People will always find a way to know or steal some information regarding on what or who you are, for them to use it against you. E-wallet is not safe from people who are like that, especially if it is lacking of security. Unlike physical wallets, e-wallets are not tangible, simply, they're digitized. In order to access them, you must access it through digital or simply with the use of computer. Computers of today are very prone to hackers, especially if it is lacking of security. So be aware of the sites you are accessing, you might dive in a trap that will cause you everything.

As for me it cannot be hacked because it has yhe strongest security because crypto currencies has a more potential in able to produce everything.. it security was fully secured by professionals because it was a huge market so that they think that no one can hacked by features.
