Anything is possible. Hackers are everywhere and will always try to steal from others. They improved their skills everyday. The best way to save our bitcoin is to save it in a device we rarely use especially for online. A device that we use only for storing bitcoin.

One of the most important features of Bitcoin is: every transaction is irreversible. That is, if you receive Bitcoin, you do not have to worry Bitcoin senders will reverse the transaction or retrieve the Bitcoin it sends. However, it also indicates that if your Bitcoin account is hacked, then the hacker can send your Bitcoin and you will not get it back.
First, you need to make sure that you are only enrolling in a global and leading Bitcoin company, as well as knowing how to identify possible Bitcoin cheats.
It is very important for you to take certain steps for your own security so that you can avoid the possibility of loss.
There are several basic security measures, namely:
1. Secure your email account
2. Secure your social media account
3. Use unique and powerful passwords for all online accounts
4. Enabling two-factor authentication

Yes true, if everything we do then chances are very small if exposed to hack, the most important is we always change the password so it is not easy to track.

Yes, there are many professional hackers out there especially when we are talking about this kind of technology. It is riskier and prone to hack if we trust others that we don't know or even a strangers. If someone asks you about your personal information including money and you didn't know their interest with you, just ignore it and don't entertain that kind of person because they just get some of your information to hack your account. Put a strong password in your own wallet to keep it safe from hackers. Hackers are indiscriminate so we might just keep ourselves from stupid hackers.

Hardcore wallet is the solution for the hackers because no matter good is the hacker if you are using hardcore wallet he has no chance to access it because the wallet is in your hand so in my opinion spend and invest in hardcore wallet for better security.

Today people can hack into everything it's just the time that's a variable. Your best bet is to have clean pc and take care of what you download and install. The chances are high if you're not careful. The wallet is secure as much as you're taking care of it's security.
As an additional measure, make sure to not click on any link that takes you to shady sites in forums that have to do with bitcoin, in other forums the possibility of a suspicious link is there, but in forums that are not specialized in bitcoin it is more common the hackers are looking for paypal or credit card details, but in forums about bitcoin hackers are looking for bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies.

Your wallet can have the best security but there will always be the weakest link, which is you. You can be prone to social engineering, phishing and other attacks that can risk your bitcoin.

Of course, that can happen if you do not apply good security measures, your password may be stolen somehow. I advise you to use good security measures so that you do not deserve to be harmed. That's the best way

Password can't be hacked if you didn't post it or put it where it can be exploit easily. Bitcoin wallet is hackable and I agree with it, But if the hacker don't have any Idea regarding his target and just holding the data of your wallet address. Generating the private key in random basis is very hard and can consume massive power.

It depends on the bitcoin wallet that you are using, if you are using this web wallets that most of the bitcoin users are using, then there is a possibility that it could be hack by a hacker, but if you are using the hardware wallet, then the possibility is very small, because you are the only one who knows the private key that is only the key to access your wallet or to hack your wallet.

So, if you want to make your bitcoin safe, then not use this web wallets, because the higher of chance that it could be hack is so high.

Yes it is very possible that your bitcoin wallet will be hacked by hackers specially those online wallets since you will not be holding any private keys for your wallet. To avoid the hacking better store your bitcoin in offline wallets and avoid phishing sites double check the website or app you will use before entering your bitcoin wallet.

If it's a professional hacker is what we're talking about , of course, there's a great chance or possibility that they can get into our account. There are so many ways that a hacker can hack into our account, i.e. downloading an application or something into an unknown source and installing it on your pc or mobile are one. Sometimes it's our own fault that makes way for hackers to get into our accounts.
On this way only can hackers can able to hack our wallets which do make programs or virus to let them know about our keys and passwords to stole up the funds on our wallet but talking about bruteforcing a wallet address or wallet itself i think its not really possible as of now even how professional is the hacker is. He would really need quantum computers on breaking codes or hashes.

Until now nobody can hack bitcoin wallet except due to errors and inability of wallet users, we never heard blockchain on hack, it proves that this system is very safe and can be used for safe and convenient transaction
Sorry to burst your bubble but exchanges have been hacked and much money has been lost because of that, I honestly do not remember if an online wallet has been hacked but I will not be surprised if it was, that is why it is recommended in the forum that you never keep an important amount of coins in an online wallet and that instead you keep most of your coins in a wallet you control and if possible that you keep that wallet in cold storage.

the biggest security flaw is your own ability to keep your info from being compromised. best way to do this is by being aware of the potential attacks, commonly being weak passwords or security answers, phishing scams, malicious software, etc. do your research on security if you plan on storing a large amount of crypto or any currency online and you should be well off.

Yes it can be hacked. Hackers have no limitations when it becomes to technology, even government securities can ba hacked. Our wallets also so i recommend you to create mot just one wallet but multiple to separate all your incomes and of you want a high security, just invest it in a bank or in your house. There is no escape when it becomse in this situation if the person wants to steal tour money no matter what medium it is they will steal it. If online they will hacked, if bank there is taxes and if in your home or in a vault case there is a robber.

Everything can be hacked. Just make sure you have your own private keys. One of the safest ways to keep your coins is to save them on a paper wallet. Make sure you don't lose your paper wallet!
If you really take care of your security seriously then no one is able to hack your account,make sure your security updates are update and never used trial or cracked versions and never visit or open fishy websites if you want to stay safe and under the radar.
