can they hack into our wallet. There are many professional hackers out there. What are the chances? Also what is the safest way to safeguard ourself?
They cannot hack your wallet if your private key is secured. Dont give it to others that you dont know, because there are possibility that they will hack you if they need money.
People see hackers mostly as nerd guys that know a lot about computers and while this is true you need to understand that the most powerful and successful of hacking methods is social engineering, basically talk to people and manipulate them to do their bidding, most of the time those are the successful hacks you will see, a person gives up his private key to the hackers by their own volition and then the hackers steal everything that is in there.

Now scammers have become very cunning. You need to be careful when using wallets. We need to monitor where we are entering our data. There are many fake sites. They look almost the same as the original site, but they were created in order to steal your information
I agree with you i would suggest to you use only famous wallets like blockchain or myetherwallet this way you will be at least secured at the maximum you have a lot of scam coins and also a lot of scam wallets you need to watch out for.

they can only hack your computer not wallet
Not completely true, hackers have created fake sites that look exactly like the original where they put an installation file that has been modified, that way if you install that wallet the hackers have access to your coins as soon as you put any amount of money there, that is why it is important to check the site  and if possible verify the download, just in case, so we can avoid having our bitcoin stolen by hackers.

Indeed, It is feasible for your bitcoin wallet to be hack by the hacker if you do not know how to defend your personal computer or units properly, It would be very best not to obtain anything at all from suspicious internet sites as it may include destructive software that the hacker could use to get a lot of important information from your gadgets.

Most digital systems have some form of vulnerability that you need to be aware of. You need to have as many layers of security as possible, antivirus, firewall, system patches and updates etc. Common sense is actually the most important defence.

Clicking on suspicious links and human actions lead to lots of problems.

Yes they can. I knew a person whose myetherwallet account has been hacked and that man sold all his token and ethereum leaving with nothing. That man now is grieving lol.

Of course. Anything can be hacked. Most of the vulnerabilities tend to be human in nature. Wallets are probably still more secure than leaving your BTC on exchanges anyway.

Hackers can hack you laptop or computers buy your hard wallet or cold storage wallet is unhackable nontheless if you give your private key or show it online then hackers will hack that. Be sure to keep your private keys in safe place don't let anyone know you password.

If you give your Private key definitely they will hack your bitcoin wallets, i suggest put some 2FA authenticator and make a phone number security connect it to your wallet so hackers will not hack your wallets most important thing you will do keep your 12 phrase seed password this is very important.

Yes, they can hack your wallet. Everything that is on internet is vulnerable with hackers they can find holes or bugs to sploit all your data even the site said that it is secured. Hackers attack whatever they want even your bank accounts.
Yes it is absolutely possible because now days there is a great war between internet security and its breakup. The information technology has this big challenge that till now there is no such security which can make your online information save from hackers. But as the technology has no limit iOne day such security system will develop which have very strong security and future bitcoin and block chain can use this security system. For the time being it has chance to hack your bitcoins.

wallet yes Because it is like normal accounts need username and password + linked email so hacker can hack it

but bitcoin system can’t be hacked

so that responsibility of save your wallet back to you and must keep your private key .

It depends on what kind of wallet to use. I'm using blockchain.info. It has two-factor authentication, notification of entering the mail, code phrases, the ability to set a second password, without which it is impossible to carry out transactions and other degrees of protection, having established that it is almost impossible to crack the wallet. Therefore, I feel that my money is safe and do not believe that hackers will manage to get to them.

Criminalized indeed is always there, we must be more careful. Well it's true if we choose careless web address wallet for our bitcoin, it could be hacked by professional hackers. And the wallet address which has been hacked should not be used again, better we create a new wallet address again for our bitcoin.. because it will be vulnerable to be hacked again. Obviously we must try to choose the web site for our wallet address is really safety and proved very reliable if used.
