With the everyday issue on MEW wallets hacking, what are the best ERC-20 wallets that are safe to keep one coins or token?



I have never experienced problems for ERC-20, perhaps the biggest problem is the delay in transactions. and even then rarely, the point is you don't give a private key and protect your computer from phishing attacks

Store your private keys in an encrypted file/password protected.
Then store it in a USB that is also password encrypted.

If you can get a hardware wallet, even better

The hacks happen due to the negligence of the security keys getting compromised. Taking some steps to ensure the safety of your security keys would prevent any MEW hacks I think. But if you're still not satisfied you can look into buying a hardware wallet, such as ledger nano and a few other wallets worth looking into. Hopefully that'll help fortifying your security in this situation.

There are some wallets out there which are not that much secure, and people should stay away from them. You can however search it up on the google. You will find a list of best ERC-20 wallet there.

I still use ERC-20 as a wallet for all alts using the mew platform,
there is no fundamental problem for ERC-20, and if any hacking the target is always random. as long as I'm always safe, everything is safe.

MEW is ok, but you should be very attentive and careful while using it, also you can instal Metamask extension or use hard wallets.

It's not normal to have this kind of situation every day. You must be doing something wrong. Be sure to store the Private key correctly. Also, I think if you have something like this, your computer / phone may not be clean. First of all, I suggest you do a scan on these issues. Then MetaMask I guess is one of the reliable options for the moment. You can also try some hardware wallets.

Myetherwallet is good if you're security conscious, you have to be very careful about which links you click on and sites you input your private keys, so also jealously guard your private keys by keeping it in hard copy and don't share with anybody, if you take those tips serious you can't get hacked and the other thing which is the most secured wallet and no one can hack is hardware wallets such as s Ledger nano and trezor

You can use myetherwallet, buy I recommend you to access to your wallet by .json file, which can be password protected. Or use metamask addon.
Because copying and pasting privatekey is too risky - if your computer is infected hackers can easily watch what are you doing.

There are no specific individual way to keep your security safe. You just have to be cautious about your password protection and not to enter in any unsafe sites. Also, while exchanging one on one, be careful about your identity.

It seems to me that an individual approach to the problem should be, because the security of the ethereum wallet depends only on the user's actions. Thus, we ourselves should not do what we did before in order to secure our coins.

Why is the incidence of hacking Myetherwallet still common? This will greatly worry users. Sometimes I ask, when will the hacking account stop working to steal. They use their intelligence inappropriately. Huh

If you are sure that the hacking was carried out without your participation, that is, you were not able to catch any virus or become a victim of social engineering, I think it would be better to connect with the MEW administration and tell them the problem, you will help all of us in this .

In my opinion, myetherwallet is still the best and safest wallet out there for ethereum and ERC-20 tokens now. There have been some reports of hacking, but only a few incidents may have happened not many. I have been using for a long-time without any problem.

Trezor or ledger nano are the best way for keeping your asserts in my opinion, I use trezor and like it.

I think we all have to be careful always
Myetherwallet is hacked  only when you single handedly compromise your account
Without making yourself vulnerable, you cannot be hacked
