Its like if you keep the doors open then your house will be robbed for sure. You need to keep your wallet secure and safe, if you have that much of a tension then better to take trezor or Keepkey.

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?


I think it is not easy to hack someone's computer. let alone to retrieve files stored in our hardist. most likely to steal and hack through the method of inject rivus, a kind of torjan. that's what I know.

There is a very very very very small probability of a hacker hacking your wallet using brute force method, they will hack into your bitcoin address containing millions of dollars worth of bitcoins in... Lets see, more than the age of universe I guess?
So no, if you create your wallet in a secure way then there is no way of hacker to hack your wallet (assuming your computer is free of malware and stuffs)

The safest Bitcoin wallet on the face of the earth is Node wallet... yes you would have to download entire chain you would need some disk space but you will have full control of your asset.. encrypt your wallet keep the passphrase safe and secure.. unless some one get access to that phase you are bulletproof, nobody can steal from you.

Anything in the digital space has vulnerabilities. What you need to do is take whatever steps you can to add layers of security to make it as awkward and time consuming as possible for any would be attacker. ITs like having a burglar alarm on your house when your neighbour doesn't, typical the thief will go next door.

It depends. Because most of the bitcoins wallet nowadays has high security. But if you will store your bitcoins, I prefer to you to store it in coinbase. The coinbase is the safest online wallets.

Yes a bitcoin wallet can be hacked by hackers. The best advice I can give you to prevent this is to educate yourself about two factor authentication and use it on every wallet, acct, device, etc you have.

I think that this situation is possible, but attackers can steal money from your credit card. There is no system, which will provide you absolute security. And it's a bad reason not to use different cryptowallets

I believe or, it's better to say, I hope, that without our own mistake it's impossible to hack our wallet. Recently I had so many spam emails from Slack asking to update or smt MEW and follow the link. I think some people can follow it accidentally
I never click to those links from them, because some hackers can hack our computer system through those links, example automatic download malware after load image or click to ads ...

It depends on which wallet you use and which security measures you take.
Keep in mind web wallets are the most likely to be cracked... they can crack your wallet password, your email password (and then access to your wallet) or even web wallet servers, so avoid to use web wallets/exchanges if you wanna be safe with your money!
Some wallets like Blockchain.info provides best security methods, if you use 2FA, it is very difficult for hackers to hack your wallet, although I heard that there is a method to hack even 2FA, so our coins security is our responsability.

During my studies in college if there is one thing that I always remember what my professor said is that there is no system security that is perfect. Everything in the internet can be breached and it's what I firmly believe in since then. With that being said there's no doubt that our online wallets are prone to hacking activities. Sometimes I even wonder if there's a chance of an inside job everytime I heard of hacking incident. But I think it's just me and my paranoia. And I think the only thing we can do to prevent it is to take the necessary steps to protect our private keys and make sure that all security features available are being followed.

Yes, bitcoin wallet can be hacked by hackers. Attackers are looking for people in social networks,Once the number is at the disposal of hackers, they will be able to reset the password in any bitcoin storage and Internet account connected to it, including Google, Facebook and Twitter accounts. who write about investing in crypto-currencies, find out the number of their mobile phone, then call the communication provider and, posing as a client, ask the operator to transfer the number service to another device.

It relies upon the bitcoin wallet that you are utilizing, on the off chance that you are utilizing this web wallets that the vast majority of the bitcoin clients are utilizing, at that point there is a probability that it could be hack by a programmer, however in the event that you are utilizing the equipment wallet, at that point the likelihood is little, since you are the special case who knows the private key that is just the way to get to your wallet or to hack your wallet.

In my own opinion, i think hackers cannot hack into your bitcoin wallet to steal all of your bitcoins if you are invisible to all active hackers because they cannot detect and find your bitcoin wallet. But if you are very visible maybe hackers could get in to your account and steal all of your bitcoins.
The possibility of hacking bitcoin wallet is up to zero percent because the algorithm designed for security of wallet is very mature and no one can break it, and security administrator servers are not vulnerable so don’t think that it’s not safe it is safe than banks,

Of course, It is possible for your bitcoin wallet to be hack by the hacker if you do not know how to protect your personal pc or products effectively, It would be ideal not to down load something from suspicious sites as it may possibly incorporate malicious computer software that the hacker could use to obtain a whole lot of crucial info from your units.

The internet sites them selves at least the large kinds are protected. It's a subject of what you do with the info among listed here and there, your passwords keys and things of that mother nature. The private Keys them selves are fundamentally unhackable, it could be done but the resources would be a lot more high priced than the final results.

theft is always there. and always have to be overcome. from both sides. as well as the security of the wallet itself. and security of the wallet user. all of it must be interconnected. I think so

because there is always a gap and opportunity for hackers to hack someone's account. although the possibilities are small in scale.
