it is always risky to keep your coins on the exchange they can be hacked anytime.. hackers always remain busy to find the flaws in the servers and they try their best to setup the phishing sites.. recently bee token ico suffered this where hackers were able to steal the sum of 1 million during their sale by phishing site
If people browse safely and share their holdings into different wallets. Then they would reduce any issue of Jack substantially

Exchanges, online wallets and hot wallets in gambling sites.

Yes got it thanks for your advice sir.
Yes very much afraid for hacker. I use antivirus, separate mail id , two factor . But not sure what happen when. I think Bio metric login facility help lot.
One of my fears of such online transactions is hackers because all of my earnings are stolen especially when your earnings are huge, so let us keep in mind that if we receive messages that are not related to transactions or to be strict we are.
Here's the advice of investors and experts, edited for clarity and style:
Jonathan Levin, co-founder of Chainalysis
1. Before you open up an account on Coinbase [or other exchanges], set up an unique email that you are going to use for that account.
2. Make sure to set a really hard and long password, and you are the only one to access it from a piece of paper that you control.
Dan Romero, VP of operation at Coinbase
1. On Coinbase, turn off SMS-based two-factor authentication and account recovery for your email account. If you move to Google Authenticator but don't turn off SMS account recovery, a phone port attack can still lead to an email compromise.
2. On Coinbase, setup the Coinbase Vault and two-factor authentication for any sends off-site.
Sean Everett, VP of product management, Coinbase account was hacked by phone porting attack
1. Don't talk about cryptocurrency publicly, especially on social media.
2. Call your cellphone provider, put every level of security you possibly can, and add a passcode to it. The next level protection is to add a "do not port" SIM card to your account. That can last for a year.
3. Even though Coinbase says it takes security seriously and has system designs to protect customers, it's not a bank. Don't trust it as such.
Adam Dachis, digital consultant, Coinbase account was raided by a computer hack
Don't keep all your cryptocurrency investments in one place. Diversify among exchanges. It's unlikely you are going to get hacked at the same time through all of them. Especially if you have different emails and passwords for each.

You just must be accurate and attentive using data of your wallet. Don’t follow suspicious links and don’t log in in such sites, sure. I think it all depends on our precaution. We live in modern world and we should be ready for such things.
fears on he hacker can not be hidden by anyone, because the facts have proved that hackers have stolen a lot of things that harm many people, no exception crypto currency

Who is not afraid of hackers? We all are because it is our hard-earned money that they steal. Due to technology and promise of easy money hackers are spawning like mushrooms. I have even read a news article that a certain country trying to steal another country's crypto for a purpose of financing it's militarization project.
Damn.Of course i scare them.1.2 billion dollar is a serious money.But if we don't login awkward sites and clean our cookies, things will get better.Being a vaggrieved is a really painful experience 
Of course, this is scary if you look at the overall statistics of hacking over the past year.
More than 10% of the funds collected during the ICO are lost due to fraud! The project's founders concentrate on attracting investors, rather than on security, therefore attacks are most often subjected to the loudest ICO: hackers attract volume, rush, lack of centralized control, irreversibility of transactions and information chaos. The most popular type of attack by 2017 was phishing, followed by DDoS attacks, hacking of the site or applications, cyber attacks through company employees, IT infrastructure or investors, as well as hacking of exchanges and purses.

Oh, by the way, who else does not know the hackers stole $ 150,000 in Ethereum from the investors of the Experty startup. So be afraid or not, it's up to you. But if you do not secure yourself in the best way, then your problems. Experts expect that in 2018 new standards for ICO will be introduced, and projects will demonstrate prototypes before fundraising, as well as pay more attention to security issues. After all, when hackers steal investor funds, collective claims are not brought against direct intruders, but against project representatives.
I think this will be a good move, we all feel depressed every time someone hears the money stolen, I hope this new system can help us to be able to minimize from hackers attack
