based on my experience using MEW ERC-20 is an experience using a wallet that is very easy to use.
and also a high level of security, but be careful with pirated sites that are circulating, because it is very similar to the original to deceive victims and loot the entire contents of the wallet by irresponsible people.

[JohnsonJesse]

Yes. I think that it really is secure to use Myetherwallet. It is very secure, and one of the safest out there, and highly recommendable too. If you are not so sure of it anyways, you can chose to make use of any of the hardware wallets that are available. But really, you are just good with Myetherwallet. Don't just permit untrusted ads and what what on your browser, and never share your login info.

Until now it is still safe to use myetherwallet to store ethereum or tokens. As long as we keep the private key in a safe place and don't forget. And don't be fooled by phishing sites so our wallets are still safe. I also use Meta Cert or MetaMAsk.

[athiftammam2018]

Yes, it will be safe. But everything must have a risk. Save your own private key and don't share to your friend or other. You must keep your own private key.

The greatest danger of such site is tied in with phishing, otherwise known as specifically to a comparable site which take after the same as MEW and get your private keys effectively, its simple not to get misled by basically see the url, however its diverse story in the event that some individual as of now approached your system, or key press which wouldn't have any manufacturing plant of security any longer

Make sure that it is the legit site for myetherwallet because sometimes it is not. Read before doing so. This wallet is mostly recommended and secure for smart contract. Be careful where you keep your private key and do not share it to everyone. It is advisable to use hardware wallet where to keep your coins.

Yes it is safe if you use mew on a web browser without extensions. But i advice you to use metamask, you can create eth address on metamask easily. I think it is safer than mew and also you can use metamask and mew together.

Don't be afraid to use MyEtherWallet. It is a secure wallet that is used by millions of people. The spread of the use of cryptocurrencies is stopped by computer illiteracy and people's fear of something new. Therefore, we need to explain as much as possible to other people the basic knowledge on the use of cryptocurrency.

MEW is safe to use. Just make sure that you safeguard your private keys and store only funds that you immediately need access to. Create multiple wallets as well.
Long term storage should be on a hardware wallet like Ledger.

Using MyEtherWallet is way easier and it is much more secured than the other wallets we all know. It's also good for transactions and such since it is already being used by the people who uses cryptocurrency around the globe. And of course there is MetaMask that's way also good than the other existing wallets right now.

[Enochian]

After MEW using today I load a local version from MyCrypto (part of same development team that made own project in the Jan '18) and I'm glad now. I don't afraid any phishing sites or other DNS errors. Metamask not bad but my experience tell me about some unfriendly useк interface. I understood it after several instructions

First, if you want to use myetherwallet make sure that the original website, there is too much duplicate of myetherwallet website.
second, keep your gadget / computer clean from viruses.
its highly recomended to create new wallet

[BennyK]

I have used MyEtherWallet for two years now without experiencing any insecurity. Being cautious is very paramount here, always check the url to see you are not redirected to another phishing site. Never follow an unknown link that leads to MyEtherWallet.
Remember, MyEtherWallet do not have the address of any wallet holder, hence avoid emails that claim they're coming from MyEtherWallet.

So far I use myetherwallet to store all of my crypto currency coins. So far I feel safe and include easy to use. In my opinion, whether or not the use of myetherwallet is safe or not depends on us as the owner. If we will all the procedures and all the facilities provided by myetherwallet then we may not affect hacking. Besides that we also have to make sure that we are connected with our e-mail. And our e-mail is not connected to someone else's e-mail because it can be very dangerous. Lastly, I was advised to always update the password that we made so the hacker could not track or guess our password.

[Bittalk12]

I don't have any problem using MEW and I thank God for not becoming a victim of hacking ever since I used this wallet way back May 2017 up until today. Security depends on the team members indeed but we also have to keep in mind that we also have our own responsibility on how protected are we when using those devices while making blockchain transactions? I mean, are your devices cleared and protected enough with those malwares and viruses? Are you saving the website as bookmark to your device to avoid phishing sites? Are you saving your private keys to your devices? Answer these questions first and always do your own research on how you can protect yourself from those hackers.
