Wallet hacking is it possible?

[ckorbba]

Yes it is. Wallet hacking is possible especially when the owner doesn't take care of his password or private key. Aside that, if the user visits any unauthorized site, there can be a hacking activity.

I think that many users of cryptocurrency already know about various phishing sites that should be avoided. In any case, I hope more for Android, which is less susceptible to hacker attacks, unlike a personal computer.

wallets hacked can occur if the owner is not careful. like opening a wallet on the site. if we are not careful we can open the wallet on this phishing site will make our wallet data known to the fake site owner. so other people can access the personal wallet

my friend also experienced it because he opened a phishing site so that his wallet could be hacked.
then sometimes hacking can occur because we open it using a common device and we forget to delete it.
so hacking is easiest if we are not careful because actually all wallets have enough security.

Yeah if you are using a web wallet or even a mobile wallet it is very much possible to have that wallet. Its hard but if you do something wrong or you being careless about private key or pass code or phrase then it is possible. The most common hack is pissing its nothing but a advantage of your mistake. They create something which look like trusted and when you use your private key in that its just store on their storage and then they use it and hack the wallet. And there is lots of big hacks also. Like exchange wallet hacks or somethings.

Your wallet can be hacked when you login into a phishing site using your private key, had a friend that experienced it and it wasn't  a  good one cos he lost everything  within seconds

Yes its possible personal wallet get hacked because we use device that not clean from the virus and malware. So if you keep and hold any crypto in personal wallet, make sure you use clean device for login.

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.

Yes it is ! It is very possible for someone that his/her wallet can be hacked, if there are/is other people who have the access to your wallet/s, just like; private key or other ways that can access our accounts. That's why it is always better to double check the websites, google forms, or other way which we are having to enter our private keys or passwords.

Some of us were just too careless and not thinking this one at the start, and once they'll hacks they just keep on whinning but that their fault also. 
For this bad experience,  it may serves as learnings for everyone and it gives awareness for new crypto adopters to be careful with their wallet keys.

My friend lost his wallet from the Android mobile wallet application, there was nothing suspicious before but now he lost all his balance, suggested making a wallet on the MEW website then saving it to the locked file

[Alisha FR]

the problem with the hacked wallet, in my opinion, is caused by the fault of the wallet owner, for example wallet owners send their private keys to others or use their private keys to malicious sites. So this is what allows the wallet to be hacked.

It's really hard to believe that it could happen, maybe he used an unreliable wallet or his phone was used by someone

99% of all whose wallets have been hacked is the fault of their users who have incompetently handled their passwords.

[itasannah]

Wallet hacking is very possible. Already many people have lost their digital assets in their wallets. And this is very vulnerable and you must be able to maintain your wallet and password. But I'm lucky this rarely happens to me. Maybe you can use multiple wallets to store your digital assets.

Actually, there is no way for other peoples to know your private key or seed or password, unless you expose it for them.
Hackers makes peoples expose the wallet for them, using several way to be done.
So, it still can be possible for wallet hacking if the wallet owner not careful.

Password are useless when hacker fund that, can't do anything when only got iy. when you mean seed, private key and wallet.dat, that's hacker want from you,

[anggle]

Saving digital assets is very important because digital assets have a very good future. But when we store in a Cryptocurrency wallet we have to be careful and don't let hacking happen. Hacking is very possible so we have to be able to maintain our digital assets properly, maybe you can use a hardware wallet.

[jaywizzy]

Smile! That is possible. Wallet can be hack in so many ways but the common way in which wallet is being hacked are, when you expose your private to third party, when you disclose your password and sometime  when you click on untrusted Link send to your mail.

it could be if you don't look after it properly and properly, use a good wallet to store your assets like in myetherwallet, and also complete it with a private key because it's very important to prevent the possibility of hacking.

Even hardware wallets can sometimes require firmware updates or need additional safety measures (like checking the send to addresses manually) or you run the risk of loosing your crypto funds

The crypto wallet cannot be hacked directly at the source but through phishing, exchange scam
(usually dex), and others. Avoid accessing suspicious websites and don't give private key
