Yes, computer viruses are used to steal keys and steal accounts that you have. So it's better to put Linux there no viruses for the crypt at the very time, but on linux do not go purses so it will be necessary to have at least one vindo anyway)

Perhaps, if you do not maintain the database maintenance time on your computer. You or your business should install antivirus software to better protect your computer. These viruses can infiltrate your computer in many ways, they can be transmitted over the internet or hidden in a daily download link. You should use caution when using any software and protect your wallet.

There are a lot of hackers and may be they are very much professional in the sector of hacking but the community of crypto are also powerful. If we become a little aware then we can easily protect our crypto.

Offline storage would be fine as well, feels like a lot of people seem hesitant about using linux nowadays or have never even used it.

Yes, there are many professional computer virus makers, and now this industry has begun to penetrate into the encrypted world. I hope that in the future, experts in computer security can help you deal with these viruses.

A malware script from a cheat program and plugins that injects viruses to mine crypto base from the article well I got some backdoor viruses last year from my old computer Double pulsar and eternal blue exe viruses from a program then injects some crypto miner to my pc, scan before the attempt to run any random programs most especially from a random person, even from some websites they are mining crypto just by visiting it better to have a browser extension or an antivirus that blocks unwanted miners, people nowadays take the advantage by stealing other people's CPU/GPU usages and electricity be cautious.

There will always be thieves among us. Not much we can do about hackers. It’s what they do for a living. But not enough to affect the value of cryptocurrencies. Government regulations can at least deter or prosecute this criminals.

I would not want to fall for such a virus, but I do not understand if it is, why it is not spread everywhere? apparently it is not so easy, and therefore do not need to worry much about it

As I have seen from a website about China's nabbing crypto thieves.  So, being a computer genius has a lot of advantages to get rich so easily with cryptocurrencies if they will not be caught.  Unlike us who makes clean living by trading, mining, investing and bounty hunting, they tend to get easy income in their professional thieves way.  Might be this is the reason why bitcoin's value is going down.  Just my thoughts..

For me, its possible to steal cryptocurrency because of a Computer Virus. There is a lot of Virus developed that can steal your personal information so its not possible nowdays to create that kind of virus, because many of us are aware of technology and have a knowledge in making virus. So let's always be careful to click some links and malicious website suddenly pop up on your screen. Be aware of your devices and as much as possible intall an application that can use to secured your personal things on your device.

If hackers thieves crypto coins than market manipulation is not possible with small amount, if we are holding bitcoins and other coins than we need to store in hardware and Trezor wallet so we can protect our coins. because if we are holding in exchanges than possibility is hackers can hack also they can steal via malware from our computers.

I've learned about hacking and even stealing data through malware, if you keep your wallet on your hardware, your wallet is very risky now, you better save on the official wallet that was launched by the coin platform where you invested, because if you save on an official platform usually they have an expert hacking team

It is possible that this is one of the reasons, now a lot of brilliant scams that can take over the financial world, but I want to believe that this is not so.

Genius are all over crypto community,only waiting for victims

Most of the targets are those noobs that has no proper learning about crypto and just putting their money on wallets or exchangers that mostly vulnerable from hackers

But regarding virus that has been used for hacking well maybe in future this will be possible but not this days because wallets are very secured

it is an untrue thing to steal money at the expense of others, we must be careful of people like them. and in my opinion that is not the cause of the current decline in bitcoin prices.

There is no such thing as virus that can steal money from others. Unless they thought it was a virus but it's a malware or something what you call keylogger wherein every thing you do will be registered and sent automatically to the owner of that keylogger. That is why I kept telling my friends who are involved in crypto not to just download anything from the internet. Also to stay away from phishing site that can steal informatiin.

For example, I lost my password, can I get it back? I think e-development is high security?

It could be one of the reason why bitcoin is going down because of the hackers once they hacked an account or a wallet they gonna send to their address and withdraw all. Let's be careful what we download might contain virus that can steal your cryptos, double check the URL and it has high security when you try to trade in exchanges.
