two factor authentication is important if you really want to protect your wallet put it in cold storage and take out the battery.

Its 100% can hack your bitcoin-purse. But you, if you want, and do some precaution, the change of breaking is almost zero. There are many ways to crack hackers. one of them is phishing. You should think about it. We open any purse, check url.don't be greedy to see any sentence like "0.5 btc for 15 minutes". If your wallet has authentication in 2 ways, do not be lazy to implement it.

Yes, Bitcoin wallet has a chance to be hacked especially when the account of the user is not secured. It would be easier to the hacker to get it.

Definitely right, when the Bitcoin wallet is lacking security, there is a high probability that you will lose your account. If your account is not secured, hackers may get your account easily. To prevent this to happen, do not let your account see or manage by other people, it should be manage by all yourself.

Anything can be hacked with enough effort. I hacked my own cellphone the other day in five minutes. The best way to manage your crypto is to put it in cold storage until you need it. The easiest way is to back up your wallet and shut down and take the battery out of the laptop you use for crypto. More advanced ways include paper wallets and custom secure USB wallets. If you store your crypto using online wallets transfer any coins or tokens to a media you control or you could lose them if the online company goes out of business.

the wallets are designed to give security and comport to investors so it would be hard to open it.but it is possible to hack them if you would not be careful of your personal information, if you have given away your private key, in that case your wallet could be stolen.

You could be hacked by keyloggers or even someone looking over your shoulder watching your key strokes. The best way is to keep coins you are not using offline.

In my opinion if they try hard they can hack it but I don`t think that they will be losing time with our wallets where there is no more than 10.000$ but they would focus more on exchanges.

In my own personal opinion, hackers can really hack inside your bitcoin wallets because they are very professional in entering every kind of system also for the wallets who has low security for this situations. The safest way for you not get hack is by being invisible for hackers for them not to see your wallet.

Offline all is the best way to avoid the hacker, haha Grin

? Do you think I am kidding you? No, to be honest, this is the best way to keep safe your wallet. Even, I can call this way is safest solution to avoid the hacker. Therefore, we have some service provide offline wallet (hard wallet) are Trazor, Ledger ...

Yes, because it has no private key when we use wallet like coins.ph. There are many hackers in this cruel world so please take care of your bitcoins, don't let them hacked your account.

Hackers can hack everything. To live too bad. You can die from it. Lol! Pay attention to the causes of the break-ins. In all cases, is primarily to blame yourself. If you always follow safety rules then it will be much harder to do. I think that online wallets are always more difficult to hack than your computer.

If you are not pay atention with your funds from your wallet there is a risk always, but i think the 2FA or private keys is enought for not having such problems.

It is hard for hackers to hackyour wallet if you have protection from them like passwords , two way and if your pc is also prtectes as well as your hard drive, it would be difficult for them tp make a security breach, also it is up tp the user whether they will trust their wallet to anyone. Mame sure you prioritize your wallet's security first before focusing on earning, don't be tpo greedy ypu might loose your earnings if you don't secure.it.

if you wanna have a better security, i would recommend to have a multi signature wallet (the address with prefix of 3 instead of 1). in case of possibility of being hacked, they need certainly large amount of computing power which consumes all the possible energy in the Earth as there are more than googol (IIRC) of possible combinations and not all the private key is valid for bitcoin address.

100 percent that hackers can hack our wallet if you dont secured your wallet like choosing what wallet are you want but for me try to use secured wallet so you'll safe on some hackers like coin base this is the best wallet and trusted for me or if you are a filipino try to use coin.ph

I agree, they can hack our wallet or even our account if didn't secure. Actually i'm a filipino and i choose coins.ph as my wallet because it's secure and they have 2FA, so they don't easily access my wallet, and i love that wallet because it's so easy to use and so smooth to transac.

I think that private keys are reliable enough and there is no sense in panicking

It depends on the wallet type you are using. 'Hot' wallets can be hacked into easily, since private keys is not stored safely. Hackers can get your data through phishing mechanisms, or you don't act carefully while using the Internet.

'Cold' wallet is more secure, as it stores your private keys online.

So, in a word, when choosing between the types of wallets - ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ - the cold one is certainly more.In terms of particular wallets, there is a range of reliable models out there.

Here are just a few exanples: Bitcoin Core, BitGo, BlockChain, Trezor, Ledger Nano S.Yet, of course, not all wallets will suit your needs in equal measure. Plus, some of them, although secure, lack a convenient interface.

In case you may be interested, you can check you the project I am working. It is a cryptowallet that tries to marry convenience with security, while also ensuring user’s anonymity - https://www.diamondguard.io/

The security risk for any cryptocurrency is with the Bitcoin wallet and how secure the owner keeps it and any systems they use to make transactions. Make sure you take extra security to protect your wallet, keep it secret. If that key is compromised, the attackers can send all of the victim's bitcoin to themselves
