I think it's really hard if you're using a two-authentication factor wallet cause if anyone want to send Bitcoin from your wallet they need to know the code sent to your phone number or code from Google authenticator so it's really hard to hack your Bitcoin. But with some wallets if someone know your privatekey they can stole all your Bitcoin although it's two-authentication wallet. Beside I think the most secure Bitcoin wallet is coldstorage wallet but it's really expensive and if you're not carefully you can lose it Cheesy

I always put a double security in my computer, for me the evil is always there and will never disappear. all can be hacked easily, but in essence all we can protect by closing all the gaps that become the target of hackers.

Nowadays you will never know what technology can do and you will never know how wise and intelligent are the hackers out there. I will not be surprised if hackers will be able to hack our bitcoin or our wallet. Since i believe that it is really possible i think the safest way for you, for us to protect our bitcoin is to minimize opening of our account to different devices because this is one of the factors why some peoples' account are being hacked. Having your accounts history with other device which other people can use may cause the retrieval of your neccesary data or information.

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?
Yes. No system is safe. Hackers can penetrate any type of security. Greatest hackers capability are unknown because no one has ever caught them. We can't fully secure ourselves. I think what we must do is to minimize our exposure to internet sites. Even though it is unavoidable, it may decrease the chance of being noticed by hackers. Hackers attacks those who are interesting. So when you become a person of interest, you are more prone to hack attacks. So minimizing our identity in web is paramount
Security is a major issue with bitcoin as well other digital currencies. This is all because of the interconnectivity without which we cannot make use of it. Hackers and scammers roam around the network to steal what we have, it's our soul responsibility to keep it in a much secure way.

Yes you were right. Today, there are so many hackers that exist and we do not know how wide their skills they have. Hackers are intelligent. On our ethics subject, we have talk about the informations placed in the internet and me and class have proven that there is a little chance of having privacy when it comes to internet. So do not be so calm and not be sure. As much as possible, try to cash out when you think the price is high and when needed. Even placing so very confidential thing on the internet is not good. Hackers are hackers. Hackers hack.

Every site can be hacked by a professional hackers. they will come up with different codes and viruses that the sites owner wont prepared for it. And if they do means the site owner have good security and privacy the hacker will come up with new way to defeat the sites owner security. That means that you and the sites owner have to update there security to defeat the hackers.

i think not because wallets have private keys that was given when you create a wallet. Every wallet was secured by those private keys or seeds to open the wallet. Every platform has a private security for their users. Hackers can only hack your wallet if they have a full information about it.

Everything is hackable on online world. There is no guarantee that noone can hack BTC exchange site.Check the recent history of hacked big exchanges and you will get what i mean Wink
it's true sir that something that smells online will definitely give rise to a system loophole and many people take advantage of that opportunity to earn their own profits

Exploits and such will always exist but lot's of hacks were due to negligence of site owners as well.

Well it werent the first time neither will be the last time we see some hackers stolen with sucess bitcoin, from some wallet provider, this is due some people arent using full resources those wallets provides, nowadays 2fa is issencial to keep your coins safe, several people does store their coins offline, avoiding any risk or opportunity to hackers. Exchanges are always a target for the hackers since they had already stolen a lot knowed exchanges and more will get the coins stoled unless they raise their security. The bitcoin network is a shield to hackers due to the hash around it, but wallets need to keep improving their wallets to avoid any exploit and reduce to zero the window for an attack.

Hackers can do every thing,So dont store a large amount on your wallet.i dont know what kind of wallet to be use to protect my bitcoin.

You can use trezor or ledger for more secured and safe wallet.
I used these and thank God my coins are still with me.

Well the hackers are always everywhere and ready to attack when they see the opportunities so don't be so sure of your wallet especially those who are using third parties. Better be safe than sorry so a little precautions won't harm us.

A hacker can break into your wallet only if he knows something about it or if he acces your ip, your email or any info that is related to your wallet. I dont think a hacker can hack a wallet that he doesnt know it exist. That is why people are hacked everyday ,because they keep talking on internet about their big amounts of bitcoin they own. The hackers see that and they break into his informations and somehow they stole his bitcoins

Never think safe, remember many stories people lose bitcoin and most of them are not aware that bitcoin can be hacked. I suggest to save bitcoin to some kind of wallet.

Hackers can hack in to the online wallets but first they must gather certain information about you e.g email address and web wallet you are using.
Hacking in to online bitcoin wallets is very hard, it can only be done by professional hackers as you said yourself and most of them don't have the time to be hacking in to the wallets of everybody. I think the only way to save your bitcoins more safer and secure is by using hardware wallets since they are offline, so they are unhackable by any hacker.
