How I lost my coin.

[5thFear]

I got scammed but that was before entering in cryptocurrency, i lost around 25k usd worth amount to a HYIP scam and there is nothing that i could have done. So i think scams are part of the life and one has to go through these kind of things in one industry or other.

i faced similar situation with MEW hack, but at the same time it is a lesson for me and I am happy to lose not that much money,because it was my main wallet and i was ready to store more money there.
Keep in safety your private keys!

I have lost Hugh amount of bitcoin, and I believe some person's here too have gone through same. Can we please share our experience and lessons.

My story :My wallet was hacked, by God knows who. That was 2017 may. I logged in to my blockchain wallet to notice that 0.9  btc I have been accumulating Since 2016 has been taken. Leaving less than $5 worth of bitcoin for me.

Well, sorry for your loss, but that is the kind of loss that came about as a security mistake on your part as it is either you are dumb enough to trust someone with your private keys or you were simply just careless with the security of your funds. However, shit happens and that is one thing I am sure you must have learned your lessons from. Also, remember to always make use of added securities and make use of cold storage if you are really holding for long.

My lesson :  don't trust anyone with your crypto, laptop or password. Because I believe someone close to me did that.

When your dear and near people are not trust worthy, practically you cannot do anything. But, if you are working in some office and you manage your wallets from your work place and probably you have left your things opened which is also possible as per many people's experience. Being careful and having more awareness are always important in crypto world.

losing a coin is a carelessness of yourself. if you don't know the basis of this coin investment, maybe you will lose more coins, continue and continue. all you have to do as a beginner is to learn what trading first. then look at the opportunities that exist and run.

[HauntOne]

Yes there are hackers.  You can lose it by simply forgetting the password, which happened to me and the etherium flew away to the lap

[dodziu]

I think you lost your coin as a result of your own carelessness and you have learnt a lesson to always be careful with your private information and not to disclose your information to a third party and also clicking on phishing sites. You can also lose your coin if you are not careful with exchanges you send them to. Take time to find appropriate wallet and exchange for the coin.

In general, many advise to create a cold wallet separately, quite on another computer. And of course, do not tell anyone about it! Even to family and close people.

But you never trust anyone about your bitcoin balance, you keep your blockchain data account safe for yourself, you can save it using your manual data or you write in your notebook. Never give others about your blockchain data because bitcoins have a higher price and get everyone to steal your bitcoin balance. Next time never give any of your incoming data and save for yourself.

[mrkimlee88]

It is because of your careless.

Yes you should always keep your wallet by your self but if someday you want to start another life that is not related to cryptocurrency then maybe you can share it to your family in order for them to keep your wallet just in case you forgot about your password.

[pokxon]

It is true that only God knows who does it. If you keep your password in a place where no one else is known, the person who logs into your wallet may only be the one closest to you. If that's wrong then I can just say that your wallet has been invaded by the wallet founder.

i also lost ethereum from my wallet. One day a few months ago i woke up and checked my balance and there was no more ethereum just tokens. i dont know who did it  or how. i never showd my private key to nobody.

[Jhonkar]

sorry to hear this. wallet security is really important,. I am on one lost my private key. some things can be a painful experience.

[fortelen]

Really really sorry to know that. I myself fortunately never lost my coins because of hackers. Hopefully, Never and Never. I think that many hackers right now are very smart to see the small hole and then steal our coins. Just be more and more careful in this situation. I also do agree with you not to trust anyone in crypto.

[enawati]

I also been hacked but just small amount about $100, this is hapening because my device is did not use anti virus and i was clik suspicious link. And learn from this , i think we should be use clean device whenever we are log in to wallet account.

[caneraydin123]

It's so sad. Many people are having this problem. Most people are being cheated, private key is losing, he's losing all his money like this. You need to be more careful. Because there is no redress for mistakes here. The best way to back up all of your information. I hope more people will not have this problem. I'm sorry for the money you lost.

[Skortish]

In the process of completing my wallet transaction, had a poor network nd network glitch, my coin disappeared, later got some back but almost half of it eventually got lost.

[Iamaslisumit]

I lost about 1000$ actually it's all my fault I accidentally click on suspicious link and lost my hard earned money. 

[whofeelsitknowsit]

I made the mistake of sending 5 ETH to a random scammer, thinking I was investing in the Iagon ICO presale.  I accidentally stumbled upon a fake telegram group, and the "admin" personally gave me instructions on how to participate in the presale.  There was a fake medium post, which looked real -- I should have been more careful.  Live and learn.
