The best tips for keeping bitcoin from been hacked is to use google 2FA on all your exchange wallets and ensure to bookmark all sites that leads you to your favorite crypto sites.

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Thanks for this information because most people really fall prey to the attacks of these hackers and this drags the image of crypto in the mud. However i also share this same opinion that the best way to keep your bitcoin safe from any third party attackers is to keep your cryptocurrency on a hardware wallet. Stay safe guys!

- We must have our own way to keep our Bitcoin safe. The account we use must have a unique password, and not easily guessed.

- Do not equate account passwords associated with Bitcoin with other accounts such as social media, because it is vulnerable to hack, let alone the followers of its social media a lot.

- Use two-factor or 2FD authentication. Additional security layers are easy to apply. Quite a few apps like Google Authenticator as a 2FD installation provider. In essence, it works as a second security layer after the password. When you've entered a keyword into your account, the system will request a two-factor authentication code. The six-digit code does not need to be memorized because it changes every 30 seconds.

- And one more, do not trust everyone. Suppose we provide information about our Bitcoin account to our Mother, it is not impossible that our mother could just tell it to someone else. With the spread of such information will increase the potential for breaking.

Yes you are right this is the way to keep our tokens and avoid the hackers but additional  thing to keep our token safe. Why don't  try the offline wallet or we called also hardware wallet that is look a like flash drive that you are storing your token in offline and hackers  doesn't  locate or hack you bitcoin because it is not connect on the Internet that can access by hacker.

Such informations are given by sites and applications once you want to use their services. And I think almost everyone knew it already. But also remember that our safety does not only depends on how we protect it but also by the wallet we used. So better choose a better wallet!

Thanks for some tips about keeping bitcoin from hackers. That is a big help for us, holding our bitcoin. Also my tip is do not paste your private key to any sites, and if your bitcoin is in the exchange site, i suggest that your password will be unique with numbers, capital letters, etc.

Great tips. I don't think anyone should even be posting about their crypto on social media because this sets yourself up to be a target. Social media is a very common tool for hackers to attempt to steal from you. It's better to stay humble anyways, the only time I see people posting about investments on social media it's to try and brag about a profit.

In fact, you will really help the most basic compliance with simple rules. Not trusting your keys to anyone and keeping them in a safe place is very important. Never neglect it, hackers come unexpectedly.

All my bitcoin wallet have 2FA because ot is very helpful because I experienced before someone who are trying to access my wallet brcause of 2FA they did not open it. Your right better if your bitcoin wallet is different to social media account to not easy hack.
Agree with what you say. I also use 2FA for my bitcoin wallet.
  2FA really helps maintain the security of our assets, because 2FA they will have difficulty in hacking our assets. Maintaining the security of our assets is important. Your rights are better if your bitcoin wallet is different from social media accounts, names, etc. so that assets are not easily hacked, that also for our own security.
