Why does MEW usually have trouble?

[haidangtp]

Are you talking about trouble sending ETH? If I understand correctly, it is probably gas fee that changes. This is not due to MEW but rather to the ETH network.

[EastSound]

Please do not blame MEW if users are the one responsible for their own problem, like using crappy devices, infected device, and crappy internet.

[hell_slayer]

I don't know what troubles are you talking about . I have no problems with MEW wallet and you need to keep in mind that it is just a software shell for Ethereum blockchain , so if you are facing with delays in transactions it's not MEW , it's eth blockchain .

[dobolspeed3]

For now MEW is considered to have been delayed and not a mistake. Maybe this problem is not serious but this problem can interfere with someone's transaction. But I'm sure this can all be overcome and will return to normal.

Maybe if you take your time to read some of the security popup when you enter the MEW site, you will understand why a lot of people always have a problem.

You need to understand that security is something anyone should take serious in this space and if that is lacking and you also lack the understanding of ways to stay secured, it would be a problem using MEW.
I have used MEW for several transactions without a problem. You should know though, that entering your private key most of the time to access MEW can quickly make your wallet vulnerable. Better to log in with a hardware wallet or at least make use of Metamask.

Sure. It's the common wallet. All new people who start to learn about the crypto world will know and use it. Therefore it has many people use it at the same time. Sometimes i need 3 days to send my token to my friend's wallet.

[Tigerheart3026]

It's not the wallet problems, just users have problems with viruses on computers. The only problem that was the substitution of DNS routing.

By installing unwanted and dangerous apps and extension can harm and can be hacked your computer. To make yourself wallet safe need to Please uninstall unverified Extension and apps. Always try to use verify website and always verification system.

what kind of trouble? i never have trouble using mew. there are many hacks happening but that is because the users are not careful.

[Haunebu]

Why does MEW usually have trouble? Because of so many users, aren't there?

Specifically, what kind of trouble are you speaking of?  if you are talking about network congestion troubles then it is partially because of the number of users but this is also more because of the number of network transactions being attempted at any given time.  A good example is from when that crypto kitty game was going on and everyone was playing this game to get collectible crypto kitties which at the same time generated a lot more transactions which overloaded the network and slowed everything way down.  But that wouldn't just hurt MEW, it would hurt anyone transacting any kind of ethereum connected currency such as various ICO tokens.

I agree. Op is being specific about the problem that he/she is facing. I have faced problems on several occasions with the Ethereum network, but the MEW wallet was perfectly fine always. I feel confident about leaving my tokens in my MEW wallet due to the high level security which is why I don't usually worry about leaving my tokens in an online wallet like MEW though I prefer hardware wallets like Trezor. Don't blame the wallet for the network issues op since everyone knows that these issues arise now and then which is something that the developers need to reduce over time.

if you forget your private key and password to get private key, dont give your private key to anyone so that your MEW cant be hack, and sometimes MEW is lagging, although thats normal.

[bigcash2011]

Mew is just like a decentralized, smart contract based wallet, so i do not think it has any problems, yes there is one thing it can sometimes load slowly or the tokens can load slowly depending on the congestion of the network.

What have you got trouble with myetherwallet? Can you clarify the problem? I used it a long time ago but never had a problem with it

[daicavung]

Because the ERC 20 wallet is quite popular and contains a lot of tokens, so hackers are always looking for ways to hack into this purse and maybe they will find a lot of tokens. If they attack the BTC or NEO, it's pretty hard. towels and almost few people use these two types of wallets

MyEtherWallet has been always a target of hackers since lots of members using this wallet for their ERC tokens..I believe that the virus thats been using by these hackers are the main reason why MEW is always under maintenance

[Bubblestonemax]

Am still yet to understand what type of troubles you are talking about. Am a user of MEW and I have not had any issues with myetherwallet. Be careful when using MEW as their are many phishing sites that wants to steal your funds.

[Thai19]

Yes, so a few weeks ago I could not transfer the coins, at that time I was suspicious of the internet, but when I asked my friend he was the same. I suspect it could be because of many people using it at the same time. I got this error two or three weeks ago, and the previous time has never been.

[Bershie]

If your reffering to network congestion, it's normal millions of transaction are happening in MEW withdrawals, deposit, sending to exchanges, token swapping. If you want a faster transaction you must raise your gas a higher settings for miners will prioritiize your transaction.

[ogabonny]

It think it is because there are so many people using it and hackers are always trying to exploit it and get funds stored in the wallets

[costgranda]

It is the most popular e-wallet. Use him a huge number of people because of its high safety. But as is well-known big projects have difficulties too. It is necessary to understand it. MEW is very convenient and safe purse for which it isn't necessary to pay!

[MAXE]

MEW problems usually do not arise. Problems arise for users who switch to phishing sites, and enter their private keys there.
Actually, the problems arise from the simplicity and convenience of the MEW.

Therefore for beginners it is better to use Metamask.
