This is for those who use wallets with cheap transaction fee, such as ethereum based wallets.
There are some who cannot yet afford to purchase a hardware wallet. On that note, i have a suggestion on how your wallet can be safe from hackers. I have always noticed wallets that get easily hacked are those that are subject to public view.
Try as much as possible to have a separate cold wallet address that you do not copy and paste the private key, and neither do you share the address with anyone. You can use it to store most of your valuable coins.
Even if you want to transfer any coin or token to an address belonging to another person, first transfer it to your public wallet before sending it out.
Good explanation on how wallet could be well protected, safeguarding of wallet where your coins are stored is very paramount and shouldn't be taken with levity hand. |

the way that you suggest very well, I agree if we have not been able to buy wallets like ledger would be better if making a personal wallet and public, this can minimize the actions of hackers who can threaten our assets. |

The best way that you can protect your wallet from hackers is to make sure that you store your coins in a wallet which allows you to hold the private keys yourself, then you can store this private key and all other sensitive information in a place where hackers cannot get to them online because without your private key, they can't get your coins

Well, first install all the plug-ins to protect phishing, remove all extensions, install metamask and use it, because then you will not Shine your key

Always use the Metamask program. But the most reliable option is the Ledger wallet. It is very safe.

Hacking has become a norm in the crypto market in the recent ast, an a number of people have fallen victim of these thieves who will mercilessly rob you off your prized investments, There are however ways of reducing the risks, The introduction of hardware wallets has made it easier for thee crypto users to mask their wallets from hackers, the hardware wallets store the coins off line away from the hackers reach,

Using metamask if to protect your wallet. Avoid using your private key just to open your wallet, instead use metamask import your wallet their and then use it when you want to open your wallet and also it can detect the website if it is phishing or not.

Yeah if you don't have a hardware wallet and you need to do stuff on all these sites that need you input your private key. First of all you need to create a new wallet for that purpose where you can just transfer tokens from your main wallet then again another precautionary move is to always double check your url link to see if it is the right one.

This is extremely an eye opener on the grounds that on this discussion there has been not kidding cautions on wallet being hacked. Be that as it may, for individuals like us who are simply into the business and until further notice can't get the equipment wallet, the main thing I realize that is frequently the guidance isn't to joke with one's private key since this is the least demanding method for your wallet being hacked.

You`d better have several wallets and a hardware wallet. And also don’t enter some suspicious sites and stuff like that. |

Yes, I also agree with your suggestions and I also suggest that it is good to diversify your token into different wallets and keep all private key and information confidential and also avoid opening any phishing link you see. |

Yeah, storing your tokens offline is the only sensible thing to do, exchanges and online wallets can't be trusted and/or can be hacked.

these are good advices, even if I don't understand how people that invest more than 1000$ for example in crypto don't buy an hardware wallet which costs 100$...

To protect our wallet from hackers of course is important, and I think even though all the security features we have activated but this never ensures that everything will be safe, and I think the best way is to divide into different places or not just make a wallet to put all the assets.

security in your wallet is a personal responsibility. you may discard visiting suspicious websites like pornos to minimize the posible risk of malware. always check url if you are in the right website to avoid phishing and not but not the least, with regards to airdrops, dont continue if the airdrop is asking to much personal information about you and your email. |
