To avoid hacking on our wallet, we should secure our private key and not share it to anyone we dont trust. Its better not keeping our coin or token in exchanger wallet because hackers always looking on exchanger and stealing their coin. Beside, we should always check web certificate when we visiting website

If you make your paper wallet on a machine with disconnected internet, then you are OK against all of the described methods.

The most secure method is:

1. Download offline https://walletgenerator.net
2. Copy it to a machine without internet
3. Create a virtual machine on the disconnected computer.
4. Use the offline copy of https://walletgenerator.net to generate the wallets you want.

Using a virtual machine over the disconnected computer is not a 'over too much' security measure, because your machine could have a logger and the logger will send all your data at the moment you turn on the internet again. For example, I have one old laptop which I never connect online.

Phishing became one of the many ways that most often get victims. many are easily tempted by the promise of sweet of a project and end up stuck on a Phishing site. Maybe this is done also viewed from the weakness of the actuator crypto that doesn't deepen very seriously what they are working on.

Indeed, this hacker's actions tarnished the world of cryptocurrency, with his expertise, these hackers robbed investors, traders in the ways they had, and this made the image of the world of cryptocurrency worse in the eyes of anthusiast crypto, they would be afraid of having their digital assets in

I only think about hardware wallet to make sure my digital assets safe because only me that will have access to my assets. That is what I will do if I want to hold for a very long time and not thinking about the price. But if I want to go to trade, then I will leave some of my assets in the exchange, make a profit, convert it into fiat, or send it to the hardware wallet to increase the balance. It depends on what purposes we want to do with our asset, and every purpose has a different method to save the digital assets.

There are two simple rules, first of all you should use the diversification to split your assets among multiple exchanges and wallets and secondly I would simply get a ledger wallet to be sure that my crypto is always safe.

Brute forcing the private keys is not possible in the real life because estimated time to find the possible code of private key with the fastest computer on the earth is more than 100 years so you no need to worry about when you have the private keys only for yourself.Simply we need to have a wallet where the private key is in our hand to store the crypto currencies in safe place.

Everyone here talks about the upmost incredible safest non breakable oh wow look at that huge safe with iron cast and etc etc etc funny stuff. You don't need like cartoonish safe and secure way to keep your coins safe. Just putting on blockchain.com wallet would be more than enough to be honest with you if it is only bitcoin you are looking for (they added couple more other coins) and if you want further security just get something like trezor or ledger nano or whatever and they will keep it safe for you.

You don't need to go beyond the required for it since only a hardware wallet makes your coins not worth stealing tbh. The amount of time and effort and power required to hack a hardware wallet and get the money in there is waaaay too much and you need to have 100+ btc worth stuff in there to make it worth the try.

Keep passwords and keys in a safe place where there will be no access to the Internet, that is, on some removable drive. Use a hardware wallet. These are the best ways to protect yourself.

Our digital assets is so be secure that's why I am hiding all my password to anyone. This means that we should be alert or be informative when making decision. You should hide all information that you can only the person can see.

Well, that's actually difficult to predict if some websites are legit or planning to take your money. But somehow you can recognize it by some actions they take. Showing their eagerness to deposit your money and they will take it. I know a friend being scammed in a gambling site. He was supposed to play poker but then the website he dived in I think is not legit. He played there but when he got his winnings, he couldn't withdraw it. And since then, he don't try to play in any site for gambling instead, he is taking information first if it is legit.

Exactly. Be very wary about giving out any information even if it seems a site is legitimate. Phishing can be countered by always thinking critically. And i think it's already a given to take care of your passwords and private keys and to have a hard wallet for maximum security.

The best way to keep all of our assets safe is offline alternatives such as paper wallets, cold wallets. Although some of the online wallet services are safe, unfortunately we cannot always be safe in digital media. Especially in today's various types of theft and virus types, we need to think about how important to use offline options such as hardware wallet can understand how important. On the other hand, I also noticed that the content of the article was produced for the purpose of advertising, and I would like to say that I did not visit your website and read the entire article because the article you posted shared the advertising content. I'm not thinking about reading.

Well, firstly it is necessary to secure your computer the antivirus plus does not store on the computer without any passwords and keys from purses,try not zahodil to those sites where the connection is not protected,and all passwords need a way to keep the cold wallet on a flash drive and so on,so it will be more safety

now it is indeed very terrible and risks storing assets in exchange, even though the exchange is good does not mean we feel safe because everything can happen. if you use hardware like Ledger Nano it is very good and the risk is if you forget your password or lose the wallet it falls etc. it seems that all are not safe or have risks and certainly safe ones also have a small risk

Well, once I am done trading on exchanges, I always send my coins to the personal blockchain I am running so that I can be sure it is safe with me since no one will have access to that blockchain apart from me. I do this by making sure I run the full node of the blockchain I want to hold the coin.

Leaving coins on exchange is not advisable due to the experience we have had in the past were we heard of exchange being hacked and a lot of funds stolen. I even prefer to leave all of my coin in an hardware wallet than leaving it in an exchange or centralized wallet.
