Hacks and scams happen with fiat money too, but no one doubts that the banks will keep existing and operating despite those things. Why should it be different for BTC? It's not 2014 anymore, Bitcoin is bigger than exchanges. Even if a major hack will happen, Bitcoin's price will recover, and the network itself is never affected by things like that. Altcoins often get shaken by such negative events because they are really small, their markets lack liquidity and their communities have little members compared to Bitcoin, but Bitcoin is on a whole another level.

We are all prone of scammers and hackers no matter what currency you're using, because different platforms have different flaws. We just need to make our accounts more secured to prevent hackers to have an access with out accounts. Bitcoin is really the most target of those scammers because of its value in the market that no other thing can surpass these days.

You can also lose fiat money, but it is more dangerous than in digital currency. In fiat, you can lose your life if you don't give your money immediately, but the only difference is that you are not knowledgeable if your digital currency are being stolen by other people.

That's the reason why the volume of people who are accessing their bitcoin are becoming lower because of fear getting scammed and hacked. Hopefully, this wrong doing will become punishable by law and can be easily detected by the authority.

A little or a lot of the effect of hacking on the price of bitcoin, will have a bad effect too. Although BTC is not really lost and only changed ownership. After the hack is done a big dump will come soon and make the bitcoin market unstable so that it also impacts on the price of altcoin. For example, when Exchange binance was hacked and lost 7000 BTC, the crypto market experienced a decline and made people with bitcoin and altcoin assets panic.

Actually, the most hacked are only exchanges, not individual wallets. Therefore, with the occurrence of many hacked exchanges not
affect the future of bitcoin. What is affected is only the price on the market, usually if there is news that hacked prices will go down.
But down only briefly, it's also because there are some investors who panic sell. After that a few weeks later the price will be start
rising again. That way the future of bitcoin remains good.

There are a lot of hacks that happened, lots of scams that happened, lots of money lost and we are still here. Despite the huge falls that happened, people are still going back to invest since they know the probability of it still going upwards. The people are supporting this crypto currency because they know it will bring them profits, and it did and will continue in doing so.

So if a huge amount of Bitcoin get hacked or scammed then we obviously can see crypto market in a danger. We must do something effective against those crypto threats. Then we can assure about the delightful future for Bitcoin.

Hacking or scamming both are different terms. By the way, I am not going to explain the terms you mentioned.

You are trying to predict the future of Bitcoin because of hacking. If something normally hacked by others then it make sense to us that it is a valuable thing. I am not saying that Bitcoin can't be hacked. But the fact is it can be hacked from exchange and we see many times it got. But we have to use secure wallet and we must ensure our security by ourselves.

Hacking will always be there, either in crypto or other financial institutions. Because those hackers are getting sophisticated in terms of their softwares and tools to penetrate the system. Their aim is to get money as much as they want, so they don't care if it is crypto or fiat system that they are hacking. So I don't think hacking will dictate the future of bitcoin or crypto. Exchanges are getting their systems upgraded as well to combat this hacking incidents and they are also doing some kind of insurance like what BNB is having (https://academy.binance.com/glossary/secure-asset-fund-for-users).

Scamming on the other hand, is totally different from hacking. Scammers make crypto their playing ground but as you observed, ICOs or IEOs are now fading their popularity as users saw their scamming strategies already. So this will not affect the crypto market anymore as users are getting knowledgeable already.

Hacking and Scamming is not the real problem bitcoin faces in the future. It can be easily minimized if users became cautious and aware of the risks.
People as well services would keep learning to be safe with every bad experience and though we might not attend a 100% safe system but we are working towards a system that makes our transactions safer.

I think it's still not safe since hacking and scamming do happens often. The only way we can prevent this is by taking our own funds and never put it on any exchanges unless if you are trading. Although, the problem is always present on any exchanges especially the centralized one. It is the job of any exchanges to put any measures to protect their clients against any hacking.

We don't need to worry about this hacking event that it brings into the possibility that we are in the shortage of Bitcoin supply in the future because it never happens. It is because those Bitcoins that have been hacked will be getting back to the market and know that scammers will make use of it rather than throwing it in the garbage.

I am not worried about bitcoin itself as its system has never been hack yet, what I am worried is on how the exchange will handle their business by making sure they will have the best security for hackers to fail every time they try. When an exchange is hack, it would result to a big panic especially if an exchange has a big volume like $100 million or more in just 24 hours, that's a huge amount of money if ever it will be hack and not only that, other exchange will also be affected as it will affect the reputation of the crypto market.

We cant predict the future even though lets say that there are still lots of hacks that do happen along the way or in future. Come to think that there are more coins lost compared to those who had stolen on exchanges,
fraud projects, wallet hacks etc. but it doesnt mean that it will majorly affect its future. Hacks do exist no matter what since we are dealing with things that had some value and this would continue until to the future
but lets hope that it wont really target out huge exchangers out there that would really result into price crash incase those coins had been sell off but eventually no matter how hard it being dumped it will
normally recovers which basically means that theres a demand or high support.

Ain't that we lose its total market supply, not even the price but only the confidence of the people that would like to invest Bitcoin as they are afraid of being hacked. We can't stop these hacking issues as they also looking for a hole in any exchanger. What we have to do is keep our coins in our controlled wallet, not in the exchanger's wallet as they were prone to hacking.

You dont worry about the future of Bitcoin even if some users get hacked/scammed due several reasons about weak wallet securities and other careless activities, because those Bitcoins/alts will still be included in the circulation after the hackers sold them to several users and exchange. So, Bitcoin and other alts won't be affected in terms of it's value.

The security of blockchain is on another level, it uses strong cryptographic keys that's why we call it the future of technology, in short it is tamperproof. Don't get the wrong idea which bitcoin is not secured, the scheme was completely secured until you reach out to pay for services like exchanges and storing in wallet. This is where the security might be advantaged of the hackers, as of January this year fraudulent activities stole more than $1 billion worth of crypto, this is quite alarming though.

Fiat currency can be stolen too, are we asking the same questions like you do?

Same thing. Everything has its own bad side. It's just that simple.

Did the government stopped printing paper money because there are the risks of thieves?

good point! Cheesy

Quote from: Oasisman on June 06, 2020, 01:35:53 AM

No matter how thick the layer of security is, If a certain user doesn't educate himself from possible phishing and other fraudulent attacks, then he'll still end up lossing his money.

at the end of the day, it is the users responsibility of his assets, not even the services that you paid for, or what you use.

Quote from: Oasisman on June 06, 2020, 01:35:53 AM

And another important lesson about exchanges that was prone to hacks; don't store your Bitcoin in any exchange or custodial wallet. Instead, store it in an offline wallet.

Just one suggestion, don't let your money sleep in exchanges Wink

Things have change nowadays, we already have a lot of exchange with great volume, so even if one of the biggest exchange will be hack, the market will still continue, of course it's normal that we will see a dump as those FUDDERS will eventually do their thing to cause more panic, but things are just temporary.

Gone are the days that we only have Mt. Gox as the biggest exchange, now we have a lot to cater traders once one exchange is gone.

We can see the exchanges ranking here - https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/... and we can see how their volume are being diversified.
As you can see in the list, Binance has the biggest volume if this exchange will be hack and will not recover anymore, expect that other exchanges are ready to facilitate the traders.

Hacking is inevitable and that's why wallet providers, exchangers, casinos and other services that holds a lot of bitcoins has to strengthen their security. You don't worry with that because it's their job to increase and tighten security measures. While us, being an individual, we have to be responsible with the wallets that we use and don't be a victim of phishing links so that we don't get hacked. Be picky with the software you download for free online because some of them are dedicated to steal your private keys and seeds and any important information.

Scams and hacks are one of the reasons why there are a lot of price dumps in Bitcoin including other cryptocurrencies as well.

The most popular is the Mt. Gox and it really made Bitcoin plummet but it did not die, it did not stay there, it took a while and surprised a lot of its investors and users. That is why we are here right now, because of that profits. Exchanges are not a suggested method to save or hold your Bitcoins or cryptocurrencies, if an exchange is hacked, a lot of people will be affected and obviously, it would affect the price. They are more vulnerable to be hacked than wallet in which you hold their private keys.

Most of the hacks that happened are from the exchanges and not from the Bitcoin itself. It is the problem of the owners that they are getting hacked. They are lacking of security system causing their exchange to get hacked. It is not the fault of Bitcoin but I think year by year, technology is improving and upgrading and so is the security of these exchanges.

The fact that crypto isn't regulated is the reason why there are no actions have been given to track this hackers. No need to get confused on it and you're right that no one can predict Bitcoin since it is for now a speculative asset.

Yes maybe as there are getting scammed or hacked, a dump will happen but take note that more and more investors are willing to buy Bitcoin at a lower price too so they see this opportunity as a buying opportunity. No need to worry about it as it isn't centralized. Not only Bitcoin are getting hacked but other currencies too.

Although lots of scam & hack happened in paste few years but we didn't noticed any notable impact on bitcoin value. Its because bitcoin isn't going out of blockchain, still its circulating on the blockchain and just changing the hands (address). Every day corruption happening in our real life but does it effect on our financial economy? Not much, because money still circulating on the ecosystem. So corruption couldn't effect on overall bitcoin value but of course we have to be more careful to save our assets from hackers and scammers. Because although scams and hacks will not impact on bitcoin value but obviously it will impact on our daily life. So save ourself and save bitcoin value as well.
