1. Use a hardware wallet. If you can't afford one, make sure your PC is clean and use an open source desktop wallet (e.g Electrum) that give you control over your private keys. 2. Don't store your funds in exchange for a long period of time. Deposit, trade instantly and withdraw.

Well, Etherdelta has also been hacked before so I dont think DEX can be s solution. To avoid being hacked I suggest you to buy a hardware wallet and also buy two PCs. On the first PC, use it for crypto related purposes and never visit any website which are not trusted. Only use it for living to your exchanges and checking wallet... . On the second PC use it for normal purposes. Never use the same email for more than one exchange. Also never use your exchange email address to signup for ICOs or airdrops or any other site . I know an ICO who sold its user's emails without their knowledge so create a different email for ICO and airdrop purposes.

This, and actually write down the seed on a piece of paper. I can't believe how some people actually buy hardware wallets but save their seed on a .txt/word file or their mobile phone's notes app. I can't believe how people with 6-digit portfolios be THAT careless.

They said that decentralized exchanges are not vulnerable to any hacks, except for etherdelta. Majority that I've read about recent exchange hacks came from centralized exchanges.
Binance also announced that they will be developing a decentralized exchange.

when everyone starts a new exchange without spending time and money to increase its security first this is what we are left with. a terrible market with lots of shitty altcoin exchanges that get hacked left and right. otherwise the big exchanges are rarely subjected to this kind of hacks. for example Cinbase. i don't know any cases of any major hacks or anything like it.
the solution is for them to increase their security, use cold storage,...
of course using decentralized exchanges is always favorable for users but it is not as easy unfortunately and they don't offer the same thing.

Agreed. If your bitcoins are not in an exchange, they can't be included in the hack. Then it's just the issue of securing your own wallet. 1. Use a hardware wallet.

Seriously? I mean, it's probably fine if it's just a few hundreds in the wallet (maybe it's for purchases) but if it's a large amount, you can't risk it. In my early days, I made a voice recording of me reading the phrases and sent it to my own email. Never been hacked but I'm not repeating that again.

I can't believe how some people actually buy hardware wallets but save their seed on a .txt/word file Why would that be risky? If there's no internet connection on a clean pc and put it into a usb-stick? One back-up and put them into a safe location.

What I was referring to are actually personal home computers and mobile phones, hence, chances are that they're connected to the internet most of the time. Also, I wouldn't hear complaints about these stuff on social media if the seeds we're actually backed up properly and securely.

Hackers mainly focus on exchanges, so try not to store their coins on the exchange, so that they can be relatively safe against these hacker attacks.

They think that it's secured as long as they keep the private keys/seeds on their phone but they didn't recognized that it is still connected to internet once they access to the web. I can't understand too why they are too lazy of writing the keys on a piece of paper and paste it to any of their books or any secured storage. It's easy and won't take that much time and effort but they are choosing to save it on their mobile phones and txt files, this practice shouldn't be adopted by newbies.

We cannot really 100% avoid hacks but we can lessen the risk of being hack if we do our research. We must also understand how hacking is done so that we can avoid being hacked. If we have no knowledge on how this things works then we could bite the traps that the hackers are sending us. So I guess we must avoid suspicious links and stop clicking it also we must install anti-malware such as bitdefender so that trojan could not access our data. There are many ways and things to do what wee need is to make our research.

The easiest way to protect yourself against losing your crypto currency is to purchase a hardware wallet. There is nothing easier. You spend one time about $ 100 and do not worry about the fact that something will happen to your assets. You are not even afraid of viruses and trojans on your computer.

It's true, I've seen a lot news about hacking and this has unsettled Bitcoin and other crypto users. the solution is to minimize the possibility of Bitcoin gap, but this becomes a very difficult homework, tentuntya will involve experts. Dex (Decentralized Exchange) is a decentralized currency exchange that does not involve third party services, in this way dex is able to reduce the hackers gap. Dex may be one solution to avoid hackers, but this system must be quickly developed again so as not to give a bit slit against Hackers.

Hardware and paper wallets is a good choice and then its your responsibility to protect your private keys and we all know that there's a lot phishing sites so bookmark the legit and don't enter it because you might end up on a fake site.
I also agree that DEX is not the solutions, because hackers will always be there at our back looking for that perfect time to exploit and steal our funds. We might be clamouring for exchanges to be very vigilant of any suspicious activity on their front and back end and make the necessary adjustment in cases of a potential hack (like suspending withdrawals).

My strategy is not to put cryptocurrencies in the exchange's wallet! Put the cryptocurrency in your local wallet and wait until you need to trade to go to the exchange's wallet!

I think this is also the right decision so you can not hack your wallet or bitcoin with the correct advice raised by the lifting we must follow the correct statement to avoid hacking accounts.
