Your wallet may be vulnerable to attack if the wallet you are using is on hot desktop wallet. It can be prone to potential hacker. Secure your wallet all the time with cold or hardware wallet.

yes it can also occur in hacking your wallet, what I experienced is phishing, so there are sites that resemble the wallet that you use to take your private key, and also someone uses a virus to spy on your device, so I think more carefully to open any site.
Such attacks are quite common, because today there are a huge number of cases where people have actually been subjected to a huge number of problems, as you see today, many people already say this.

It seems to me that for now, without a key, you cannot hack a wallet, but I think it will not always be like this and the time will come to come up with new types of wallet protection!

Online wallet can be hacked, based on the store providers, hence, crypto currency wallet, the private key don't need to save online, mostly at email, because many hackers break into email, which I witnessed from my friend account.

I think that today those degrees and protection measures that already exist, as a rule, are also not very bad. I think that the main problem that will always await us is vulnerability in ourselves, because you yourself are a problem today.

actually the wallet created from blockchain technology is very difficult to hack, before you make a wallet you will be asked for some confirmation to save or backup the private key because the wallet can only be accessed through the private key. If you save assets through a trading website then the security needs to be followed up, things that are still web-based can be hacked and have varying levels of security besides that the developers of the website want to return the hacked funds, because many developers don't want to be responsible if there is a user who has been hacked, because my account has been hacked but the developer is only stalling for time and intends not to return the hacked funds, their support is slow response and reply with same words.

Oh yes, wallet can be hack
1.if the private key is not kept safe, or share with someone not trustworthy.
2. If you login to your wallet ensure the padlock symbol(@the top of the site)  is always lock, anytime you notice is open then your wallet is not safe, or it as already been hacked.

Yes I think that wallets are very much vulnerable at some point. Depends on which knind of wallet you are using. And its most of the time depends on the owner if the owner of the wallets are not careful then it can be hacked. Most of the web wallets are very much hackable. It's based on online and web system and it can be hacked. If you talk about device based wallets like mobile or PC wallets so if the man who want to have get you PC havked then it's easy to access your PC or mobile wallets. I think hardware wallets are pretty much secure than other options.

There are quite a lot of stories about how someone's wallet was hacked, so you should be extremely careful. The only way to protect yourself, which so far works at 100%, is the purchase of a hardware wallet.

I think almost all of the wallets are vulnerable to hacking, and this can happen because of our lack of caution and negligence. Maybe some solutions will help, the first is 2 step authentication, and the second is purchase a hardware wallet. Maybe in myself have never experienced it, but many in the forum complained about hacking their wallets. So increasing our caution is mandatory

Of course this is possible and it is done every day. Therefore, be always on the alert and each time keep in mind that hackers hunt for your wallets before leaving your data somewhere.

What? I dont think an online wallet can easy be hacked as you think, nowadays cryptocurrencies have many type of wallets, and most popular wallet is ETH wallet, with many ways to login into wallet but private key is the most favorite with users, by using a long chain of words and numbers, it is impossible for anyone try to steal that code unless your computers was hacked or you logging into a phising sites. SO unless you can avoid that, your wallet will always be secured.

Sure it is possible and we had a lot of forum members that got tricked by scammers. Just be advised, never visit fishing website, never answer somebody on telegram and install an anti virus software to be safe.

Yes, I remember my most fatal mistake in the world of cryptocurrency, when I got on phishing and sent my private key from MEW to scammers. At that time there were tokens with a total cost of about 100$, in two months their cost went up to 25,000$)) Store your cryptocurrency in safe places)

I think scammers have many ways to steal your private key. I doubt that they can crack this key on their own.

Yes, it's very much possible.  I was once a victim tho. Before your wallet can be hacked, you must have been careless with some vital information. For example is giving your private key out. If an individual has access to your private key, hacking your wallet is possible.

But the dumb person will always try to believe on it. This time scammer doesn't even need to steal the privatekey but look at ETCV hardfork so many dumb person has putted their privatekey on the site which has known as a phishing site. The code has told us about that.

Wallet hacking is very possible. And it can happen to anyone. Not analyzing old or new people. Because hackers will always hack what can be done. Hackers can hack into our wallets when we are negligent. Because hacking can be by all means, it can be with fake links and we are carried to the link. Therefore, if you do not want to experience this very bad thing. Of course you have to be careful in the future.
