The basic rule of security of storing your assets is to use cold wallets that must be on a separate hard drive without access to the Internet

there is a cold wallet technology that allows you not to be afraid of phishing site. bitcoin with the right organization is safe, but the loss is always possible due to the human factor.

Individuals can keep your bitcoin on online wallet and on offline wallet. In any case, you should keep your private to a sheltered place with the goal that nobody stealth or hack your wallet. Your bitcoin is sheltered as long you keep it in a protected place. Besides, you can make your wallet more secure by simply introducing antivirus and spyware so you can guarantee your wallet is absolutely sheltered.

I think bitcoin is very safe because all the transactions can be seen by everyone and when shipping all uses very large peer to peer technology so it will be very difficult to do theft on bitcoin because everything is open and everyone can see it.

The safety of Bitcoin lies in the care of the holder of particular wallet. Remember, this is decentralization and there is no central authoritative body in control of Bitcoin. Keep your login details safe from hackers and phisphing by avoiding the saving of details in your email.

As well agree on it we should be able to take more on the responsibilty of what we can be able to do for like more secure on what we do here cause there is a possibility for hackers that they can do on like on some previuos cases of victim for their clumsyness here so safetiness are depends on the person .

Bitcoin already improved in terms of security or against fraudster. So its up to you if you will scammed or hacked by someone for being irresponsible or careless. In this market you should not trust anyone, make sure that you are the only one who knew your private keys. Keep it where no one can access it. You can use hard wallet or any upgraded folder.

Bitcoin is well known for its safety. The biggest dangers are mainly hacker attacks on third party services, through which one accesses his bitcoins. These are above all the various crypto exchanges on which the users have created accounts or the bitcoins stored locally in wallets.

Basically, either the exchange itself is directly attacked, so that data can be stolen there. The biggest known incident was the hacker attack on Mt.Gox about 4 years ago, when a huge hack of Bitcoins was looted. This was also the reason for the decrease of Bitcoins 2014.

Today, the exchanges have improved to prevent such occurrences, because it can come to hacks and the trade is severely restricted or even stopped completely. This often leads to strong price fluctuations, mainly caused by so-called panic sells.

An equally large attack surface offer individual mistakes that can easily be prevented. Individual mistakes are the responsibility of individual users and are often:
- insufficiently secured user accounts due to weak passwords
- Login on a phishing site
- send the private keys to a scammer

If a stranger has once gained access to your own accounts, he can quickly transfer the entire balance to another wallet and due to the anonymity, it is no longer clearly comprehensible. For such a kind of total loss helps therefore only a careful handling with your personal user data.

But as long as you follow to the usual security rules and pay attention to secure passwords, which you should also change from time to time and do not use the same password on many other pages, an accident normally cannot happen.
The high demand and high competition between exchanges has also contributed to the improvement of safety standards.

How make you sure to safe your Bitcoins?

Bitcoin is safe if we know how to keep it:
- Never disclose personal passwords to others, save them where no one else knows and obtain this key.
- Do not leave many bitcoin on the exchange because it is easy to be hacker attack to take away many assets, only to a few when the trade

It is secured and you don't have to worry that much about hacking for as long as you have securely accessed your account and did not visit sites that could be phishing your account. The risk that I think which is really getting into every investors mind is the volatility of coin which could really create loses.

When we talk about bitcoin, it is talking with a large about of money that is why many become interested in this and also many form of fraud are being establish in order to stole bitcoin to other person. Bitcoin is safe but the holders should be responsible for tge security of this. Many forms of stealing are used like phising emails, signing to untrusted websites that says that they giving free bitcoins but they will get your personal info to get access to your account. We should be careful on choosing what sites we are entering.

The best way to keep your bitcoins safe, is to use a hardware wallet that have stronger cryptography that web wallets.

If you store your coins in exchanges you are most likely to lose them, because exchanges receive the most cyber attacks.
Even hardware are not completely safe if some damage occurs to the device with forgetting 25 words to restore old wallet with new device but it still best choice along with paper wallet . right now people fear the dump only because many bought bitcoin at high price .
That's why in addition to the hardware wallet you need to store your wallet on paper. Like a notebook. And better in two places.By the way now the Bank of America offers to store bitcoins from them.

for me bitcoin is very safe as long you can keep your password and private key personally because private key and password is the main things to open the wallet if you lost it, it same that you lost all of your bitcoin and all of your coin.
