Wallet hacking is it possible?

[picaszo]

it is very possible to hack. there is nothing safe if it's on the internet. we can only prevent it carefully by clicking on the links on the internet

[Arlibtchunt2018]

Yes, it is very simple for hackers especially if they have already enough informations about you. This is why if you are in an open connections and without enough security then you may be a victim of hacking issues.

[Chomsy]

No wallet is safe or free from hacking. Try exposing your keys or going through unprotected websites and see how fast your information is picked. You might wake up one day to see all your assets are gone.

[GmBoom]

Yes it will be vulnerable and possibly can be hacked by hacker especially on some software wallet only. Because upon exposing your credentials like private key, the hacker can possibly hack your wallet. Always secure your wallet and credentials. Better buy a hardware wallet.

This is quite possible, only it will not be made by hacking the entire server and the entire database of wallets,but only from hacking your wallet.

Yes wallet hacking is possible and these are the following ways to hack the wallet are as.

1.Stealing the private keys.
2.Bitcoin miner malware.
3.Fake wallets.
4.Stolen value stores.
5.Keyloggers.

Here's the solution to prevent from hacks:
1. Wallet should have "Secure Backup", this feature protects the users from malware trying to steal the the seeds. The secure back up may be in form of PDF containing QR code, PDF must be oacjed as encrypted archive .
2. Wallet must be an open source, this feature applies security for the software. Having an open source wallet allows the user to have full control over his fund without third party like exchanges wallet. This also makes you invulnerable to potential  stealing, and most importantly you do not need to rely on anyone else about your stored funds.
Check the features of HODLER wallet. This technology might help to keep us from  potential hacking.

Of course, it can, but only because of your own negligence. Be sure to install 2fa on your wallet to avoid all these misunderstandings and losses of your funds.

Yes,  every wallet can be hacked but before any wallet could be hacked successfully, especially when it's wallet with private key the carelessness of the owner would be the priority and key to that.  A wallet with private key won't be able to get hacked if private key is not accessible. The owner must have entered the private key in a phisy site before been get hacked.

[Nisansala]

Just like an account where one's fiat currencies are kept so also is wallet where digital assets or cryptocurrencies of crypto lovers are kept. Can the wallet be vulnerable to hacking and if possible how can that happen? If you have experienced it before, I want to learn from your experience.

My friend MEW account was hacked by his mistake. He enters his private key to pushing site. then he loses everything in his MEW wallet.

It sounds very difficult for me to do that. It's easy to secure your money but a lot of people lack of education about that. when there was a wallet that supported to be used in the offline version and they are still using online wallet to store their token. Why do people still use online MEW if they can use offline MEW to make it more secure from the malware attack or phishing?

Of course, it can, but only because of your own negligence. Be sure to install 2fa on your wallet to avoid all these misunderstandings and losses of your funds.

Knowing that you are on the official website for the wallet can ease the worrying of the wallet being hacked. This does not go the same for hardware wallets.

[Zythiphill]

Able to crack can be virtually all , but I think for example might mew not very the and easily will able to crack, I think is worth of course sometimes improve its security!

[oneidentity]

I think that for professional hackers anything is possible. But in most cases scammers don't even need to hack anything. People make mistakes themselves and do not monitor their safety.

[MAXENATOR]

From a technical point of view, anything is possible. Only this, with the current technology, will take a very long time.
But it is possible.

[alex_kir]

Always on security issues, I can say that programs and everything else have their own vulnerabilities, which today are used by very selfish people for their own purposes. Strange to say it, but it's true

[iancortis]

yeah, it is. if the owner is too lazy and putting anywhere of their privatekeys and it might getting test with others that has knowledge to brute force the security lock. much better to put an extra securities or 2fa function and enable it.

[DISPERADO]

I think that for professional hackers anything is possible. But in most cases scammers don't even need to hack anything. People make mistakes themselves and do not monitor their safety.

I think that hacking will be very difficult even for professional hackers since it will take a very large amount of time and need very large computing power.

Let's look at the very understanding of account hacking. This can be done in different ways. Purely your account hack is quite simple.

[Andromada]

If you think more broadly, you can hack anything. E-wallets are no exception. My brother's purse was hacked a year ago and 30 thousand rubles were stolen. By our Russian standards , this is a good amount
