Security is the first thing we need to take care of when using cryptocurrency. That's the most important thing. So I agree with everything you said. It is necessary to disseminate information about it much as possible, especially for beginners.

so far, the perception of most people how they think that a market that has never been hacked is a good market I think that is the wrong thing. I also want to ask, is there a place where we can store our assets in the form of FIAT which of course only we have the key

For someone like me who've learnt his lesson in the past with bitebtc exchange I'm boldly enough to say 'its unwise to leave your coins and tokens on any exchanges for a long time' no matter how good the exchange is or how popular ,anything can happen in a blink of an eye ,if you can't afford hardware wallets go for wallets with private keys and beware of phishing

A very good and timely reminder, I'll be doing this today. Better safe than sorry!!

We need to secured first our hard earned income from those hackers we need secured it in hardware wallets to safe and secured our assets. This is good reminder for us cause it's hard to earned now, that's why we need to protect it and hackers are always there, this reminder are very helpful to us.

Your post is based on the claim that companies can be hacked, and arguably, will all eventually be hacked. This is a perfectly reasonable claim.

However, it doesn't include the important consideration that individuals can also be hacked, and arguably, will all eventually be hacked (or more simply, lose their own assets).

The important question to ask is not whether it's possible that a company will ever be hacked.

The important question to ask is: Is it more likely that assets are safer with this company, or with myself.

An individual is significantly less likely to get hacked than a company holding millions and billions of dollars worth of assets. As long as an individual does everything right in terms of security, he/she won't get hacked.

Any system as powerful as coinbase cannot guarantee its security, the right step is to store our own coins and assets in cold storage without connection, use them as needed if needed, because we will regret when our assets are lost

A properly chosen hardware wallet can significantly reduce the risk that your investment will be stolen. Therefore, I advise all investors, especially beginners in any case not to neglect the issue of safe storage, it is very important for a successful investment.

This is very true and the recent even that can prove this is Cryptopia hacking the good thing is some funds can be recover, the bad parts is it is harming the whole market and holders are having a second thought to trade because hacking is very rampant.

So I bought myself a cold-type hardware wallet. Many say that it is the most safe for your storage. And while a few years of storage of coins in such a purse, they are all safe and sound. I hope that it will always be so.

You're right. Even checked the exchange as Binance, Kucoin etc can't be 100% safe. Always keep your coins in your wallet. And it is best to get a hardware wallet. In that case, you will definitely be safe.

I agree about hardware wallet is better ways to safe our funds, but for me, I think that's is expensive. Now I still using free website wallet like MEW. If my funds already much, I will consider using a hardware wallet. And until now my funds safe in MEW. Always update all security and never open your wallet on a public computer.

Safety issues are fateful for every investor and seeing such sharing people who are willing to help each other is very promising. If we stay together and inform each other recent incidents, security of all will be achieved at the highest level.

Yes, of all the existing ways to store cryptocurrency hardware wallet is the best and safest way. I also use it and my funds are always safe.

I wonder how long it will take to get this Cryptopia hack sorted out? I hope we can access our accounts soon and it isn't dragged out to be a 6-month long ordeal. I wonder how many exchanges will be hit by hackers in 2019?

You are right.Always secure your wallet because there is no 100% security in any exchange. Just your own wallet.

Though I like coinbase most, And I haven't faced any problem with it! But you are right, Coinbase is not hacker proof. I have Ledger Nano S, I ordered Trezor too. Actually, I very much care about my wallets, but truly speaking, I like coinbase most! But by seeing the Cryptopia exchange hack incident, Now I totally depending on hardware wallets and I think everyone should use hardware wallet before too late.
