I think the most important and important thing to do to avoid hacker wallets is to keep our private key safe, and always avoid phishing sites through email links, personal messages, etc.

Well, how else can you protect your wallet from hackers? I keep my private keys on a piece of paper, and each time I enter them manually. Thank God nothing was missing

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.

Yes, that's true you cannot afford the hardware wallet if you are new to crypto world. For sure you will use some cheap wallets like myetherwallet that have a private key but the hackers can hacked it when you paste your private key in a bad site. My suggestion is to use metamask to secure your wallet so that it will not be hacked by the hackers.

Do not use your private keys, while opening your wallets. You can  create encrypted keys and passwords to open. But better to save your funds in safe is cold wallets.

I think that if you are already engaged in crypto - currencies and are ready to invest in them, then just spend another $ 100 - $ 200 and buy a hardware wallet, since security should remain in the first place.

Well, first to protect your wallet you need to know a few basic rules. Never click on questionable links, passwords and private keys to store only on removable media or write on paper, and most importantly use hardware wallets

I think people just need to follow the basic rules of security: double check the website address before authorization (make a bookmark), don't provide your personal data and private keys to anyone, and stay away from suspicious sites.

How will transferring the coin you want to transfer to another to your public wallet first make a difference? I would really love to know.

You need to make a back up your wallet, sit less in chat rooms and forums. Be sure to create a separate mail for the wallet. Try not to visit suspicious sites and it is especially important to install a good antivirus.

The best way to protect wallet is your own security. Feel secured of everything. If you can't affort to buy a hardware wallet which is the best option, you can make a tangible one to keep your private keys. Write it or print it out. Don't store important keys or your private keys online because always think that there is no safe place here online with a professional hacker.

a lot of variety is done by hackers and at least we have read the way they spread it in various articles. Whatever happens to the procedure we are doing, but Windows / Mac and the browser are the main ones to attack, we better secure the basics of updated software tools to anticipate everything possible before carrying out the next security steps.

i thinak the best strategy is to store your coins in a cold wallet. you can also write your private key. you'd better not send your private key through social software. or put a lot of coins in the online wallet.

Hackers are everywhere and are waiting to get hold of any available Wallet with less protection. But you has the wallet holder should do all it takes to get the best wallets and give it a better protection by making sure your keys are massively secured.

There's a lot way to prevent from getting hack your wallet by the hackers just like being careful of what you post, who you make a conversation with your account and I think the most valuable of getting hack their wallet is those people that are not aware of those hackers that are confident of their wallet will not get hack.

Buy Your Own Ledger, use Hardware Wallet.
Aware and Avoid Phising Link, and protect your private key. I guarantee your wallet are safe.
I agree with you. use a wallet in the form of hardware. because hardware is much safer and protected by viruses that threaten your wallet. besides ledger, there is also trezor. These 2 models are the best for hardware wallet

Probably the most important thing is to keep your passwords and secret keys in a safe place, preferably not on your personal computer. Many people are mistaken in the careless storage of their passwords.

Buy an old mac notebook, turn ON file vault, create zip archive or mountable disc image with strong password.
Inside this disc image, you can create another one (with password too). Store all you keys and wallets there.

Make a copy of keys to the usb flash drive with hardware lock.

In the purse need to go with your browser bookmarks. And don't show, private key. This will protect the wallet by 95-99%.
