I once lost my assets because of a hacker. I save on exchange. so I suggest using wallet hardware to be more secure, and now I use wallet hardware to store assets and be safe to date.

Unfortunately, yes, I had some BTC stolen from me this summer. I sold some BTC at that time using a well-known, long-established site. Some of the buyers used hacked bank accounts to buy from me. By the time I realized what had happened, of course the BTC was long gone. I lost 3000.00 CAD so far. I had to work with the fraud department at my bank. I'm over the fact that I lost that money but it's probably needless to say it was painful and embarrassing at the time. I wanted a quick sale and in my greed chose to do something less secure. Unfortunately, this is still something I am reminded of every time I look at my chequing account because the bank cannot release a remaining 7000.00 CAD I received from BTC trades. They locked that money indefinitely when the fraud occurred. It seems they have arbitrarily locked the funds related to BTC sales, and I have yet to get those funds released 4 months later.

That's so sad to hear whenever I am finding out someone that they have lost their fund especially their hard-earned money, recently the Upbit was hacked and IDAX seems like a scam too and run away, it's really frustrating and stressing to see a lot of people especially traders who has their fund their on those exchanges. Hope they can still get it, so far in my life, haven't been stolen yet nor hacked any BTC.

I have lost my bitcoin to scam trade on telegram and i have been scam by scam casino also. Most worst i used my own money to buy that bitcoin. Now i learn a lesson not to trust anybody and always stay away from any kind of scam projects.
Many experience being scam, I also joined in some projects but only those requires small amount to participate. I bet there are many newbies who experience it and we should really learn from our past mistakes and take care of our investment like not trusting anyone especially if they offer returns that are too good to be true, as well not lefting bigger amount of investments in one platform, exchange or wallet.

Recently I've heard someone's speech about keeping BTC on the exchange is not safe. But the same thing may be fair to other types of wallets — it's all about the pros and cons, isn't it?
There must be a comparison based on the number of incidents, statistics, etc.
I mean, ok, let's consider this article as a detailed guide for different types of wallets — there's an explanation, principles of working, advantages and disadvantages — but how do you actually know, which wallet will be safe? How did you choose your current wallet?

Where do you keep crypto? Have you ever been stolen?
Fortunately, I haven't lost any Bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies yet probably because the wallet I am using is secured enough to store my funds. Now, what makes you believe that it is safe to store your funds in exchanges unless if you will put it into long term trade. Exchanges are not supposed to be use as storage that is why wallet is created which is more better use for storing funds.

Honestly, I have not seen such a resource as Telegram, which would fill so much fraud.  I have long been convinced that I will not take any information in Telegram seriously.  Any trading actions with cryptocurrency and any signals I consider either fraud or manipulations with the help of which they want to mislead cryptocurrency users.
