Yes of course i am afraid of hacker since we don't have idea when they will attack and steal all our money and disappear. So i would suggest everyone to have a hardware wallet to save their crpyto from hackers.
Yes of course! I have known few of my co-bounty hunters that had been hacked and all their altcoins and tokens that they earned from joining so many bounties were gone in an instant.. It hurts knowing that you spent your time and effort to get all those rewards and suddenly they vanished. Sad.
If you know it can happen, I'm not afraid of it, more like being alert and doing something with caution. That way we can protect ourselves.
I know we all need to be careful and apply the necessary precautions so as not to lose your money. I'm not afraid of hackers, but I know that the danger exists.
Everyone have to be careful in this crypto space, try as much as possible not to register anywhere there is hype and give out your information, most importantly secure your private keys so that no one has access to them except you and do not store them on your pc, one does not have to be afraid of hacker, but should be cautious. my 1st mew was hacked from someone, and that's really annoying
Always check the url and see if there is a lock in it.

Make the Key very safe and not easily detected
I am no technical guy but I follow these steps and I believe I am safe:

Everyone are afraid of hackers most especially simple people who don't know how it works or simply who are not hackers. And the only way to protect ourselves from them is to free our pc to viruses and to don't visit anonymous, untrusted sites and don't download anything either software, apps etc. that can bring harm to your devices.

my opinion is you are helpless when a hacker attacks because if they can hack big companies they can hack your laptops and pc's with ease 
Of course, I'm afraid, but who is not afraid of them! ??
in my friend recently robbed all electronic wallets (20 thousand dollars - in the total amount !!!) and how after that are not afraid! I would kill such people. You have to make money, not steal from others! it's not 100-200 dollars, the amount is huge, and what to do after that! I have no idea how to deal with this and how to avoid it!
You shouldn’t be afraid of hackers much if you are holding the coins in your wallet. I have been holding my coins in my wallet for few years now and never been hacked. You just need to take some precautions and some common sense when visiting websites. Although if you hold your coins on an exchange then you should be very afraid as exchanges are more likely to get hacked as they are always in the eyes of hackers.
I fully support you, the most important thing is to keep your coins in your purses and pay attention to the security of your computer. In addition to anti-virus software with fresh databases, it is necessary to install updates to all software and the operating system. You eliminate known vulnerabilities and reduce the likelihood of hacking.
