I'm really scared, unfortunately (I always try once again to double-check everything, the password is difficult to think in. I just already had the case that I was stolen from the account by the forum and I could not return it, so I try to be more accustomed.

Oh please, everything that is connected to Internet in someway or another is viable to get attacked by hackers, it just a time when. If they want something they will get it eventually.

I am also afraid of hackers and what they can do. That is why I try to use so many myether wallet each for my investment. I did not use one wallet for all my investment. The reason is that if there is an attack it will not affect all of my investment.

i bought 10k of a coin to run a mn at roughly 40c each, few days later the coined mooned to 20x (now steady at 10x) my buy in price, now im scared to even start the wallet on my pc to stake them never mind set up the mn

Im taking a break to educate myself more about pc security etc before i do anything with them, while at the same time im losing about $70 a day passive income due to not running the mn somehow someone needs to come up with a better solution to the security of the coins as crypto has zero chance of going mainstream if everyone who holds coins has also got to be a cyber security exppert as well!

Hello! Yes, I'm afraid of hackers, and fear more from the fact that if you want,you can hack anything and gain. But still, I think we need to be very careful with those links that it discovers.

Recently Bloomberg posted the information that it took hackers less than 10 years to steal over 14% of all existing Bitcoins and Ethereum from the wallets of their holders. The total sum they have stolen is more than $1,2 billion! How to protect yourself from hackers attacks? Are you afraid of this stuff?

Only way to protect is t be super careful. Have private keys of as much as possible crypto you have. Have as much as possible of this crypto in cold storage. Have a separate phone for 2FA and hot wallets. And another phone to use for calls and whatever.  Keep at least coins in wallets on your computer you work on and try to keep it virus and malware free. Also make sure to have your cold wallets secure and multiplied. And the last thing make sure that someone trustful have access to them and know how to open them if something happen to you.  Answer on your question is so complex actually.

Yes, of course everyone is afraid of hackers. Why should be not? They can easy attack your wallet, to gather the needed information and steal all your money, they can use your ID's and start spending money, and there will always be hackers, because the world is build from the computer guys. Some of them are good, some of them are bad, you just hope not to cross your path with bad ones.

Yes. And I believe that those who are not worrying about cybercrime are too naive.
Stay safe, stay paranoid...

Yep, it's definitely something to be cautious of. Get a hard wallet like a Ledger Nano S. A hard wallet makes it nearly impossible for hackers to get your coins to the point where you could use it with a malware infected computer and still be safe. The only thing you need to worry about is social engineering. If they are able to convince you to hit the confirm button on your ledger then there's really not much you can do.

Yes, I am afraid as everybody should be. No one is safe 100%, but I am trying to protect myself by being careful browsing, not using any hacked software and not opening any suspicious mail. This combine with antivirus and firewall are the easiest, but most important thinks.

This type hacking many times happening on the online wallets and trading site. Some hash power rental sites also been hacked some of the time. If you know the last hack on nice hash server you will not keep your fund on the any online wallet which does not give the private key access to you.
Wallet like Coinbase should not be used at anytime if you want to save your fund long time.
I suggest to have the funds on the desktop wallets like electrum or multibit which is more safer to you and private key secured.

The truth is it raises a lot of concern on how secure the entire crypto market is. Today when I lose my ATM card, I know its going to take some beyond the average individual to hack into my account or even with a call or a text message to my banker, the account would be restricted for any fund to go out and if it is moved to another account, it can be traced and reversed. But here, browsing some sites alone can make you vulnerable, downloading the wrong, copying and pasting, revealing your private key, leaving fund on exchange sites among others. And yes I am scared.

I'm afraid, but unfortunately I will not be able to protect myself in any way. To hack is not a problem - it would be that hacking and there would be a desire. We now live in an era that, in principle, the issue of digital security is very relevant. And unfortunately I have a couple of friends who are well versed in computers so to speak. And they argue that with a huge desire, you can hack all

While you know it can happen I am not really afraid of it, more like wary and doing things with caution. Which isn't a bad thing.

Yes ! I really afraid of hackers because only in a short period of time all your earnings will be all gone. So we must be very strict when it  comes of signing in our accounts in any malicious documents or sites.
