People asking about "safety" of a wallet forgot one  big important thing: The Golden Rule of Bitcoin: "If you control your keys, it's your bitcoin. If you don't control the keys, it's NOT your bitcoin." If a wallet doesn't comply with that rule, is NOT a wallet, is simply a bank! So choose wisely.

An offline wallet or Cold Storage is the safest of all wallet for bitcoin be responsible enough to hide your 12 pass word or code or your private key because if that would be lost your bitcoin is lost forever, Or you can print out paper wallets and store it in a safe place so you can have a physical bitcoin that you can store in a safe case or vault in your house if you do not prefer an electronic storage then you can try different store that you prefer, Because I really think that web storage are the ones that can be hack and are the ones that is not safe.

Many people believe that electronic wallets are safe, but in fact, Bitcoin accounts and trading floors are frequently hacked.

As there is no regulatory body that guarantees a Bitcoin number to a person, it is very difficult to retrieve it if lost. If stolen, there is no hope. Such attacks are ongoing.

The online work needs some precautions to avoid hacker attack. if you follow the norms than hacking attack may be neutral.
Always use private browsing. Use antivirus and update it regularly. Do not open the site which is restricted by the antivirus. Do not keep Passwords in the online system.

Indeed, I also don't believe the so-called coin purse, if can be connected to the Internet, so greatly increases their risk of being stolen, so I bought hardware wallet, only under the condition of not connected to the Internet, to ensure the safety of our BTC. Grin

The safety and protection of your bitcoin wallet solely depends upon how you manage and protect you can protect it from any hacker or scammers if you know what to do with it. Or if you are that scared of your bitcoin getting accessed upon by other people then you shoulf not store it in the wallet for a long time and instead cash it out whenever there is an opportunity.

If you store your bitcoins online.

1. Use a device that you don't use regularly.
2. Enable: Google 2FA & Email 2FA (If applicable).

Well, that's what Bitcoin is all about a complete decentralization of the control and power. No one can take away funds from you without your consent. Everyone must be aware of his power and responsibilities too when it comes to the using decentralized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. There is lack of knowledge among newcomers and that's why they are being targeted by the hackers and scammers. Remember it's a power lies in this innovation but there is a responsibility too and everyone must be aware of it.
