I just think anything that can be accessed by the internet and can be used on a computer or mobile phone is still vulnerable to hacked. The most important thing is you have to provide very good care, because the virus will easily land on your computer and mobile phone if you do not care about its security. So with enough caution the hacker you have to secure everything perfectly.

I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?
There are a lot of great hackers around the world that can easily hacked and steal all of your bitcoin and crypto's, so i think cryptocurrency wallet can be hacked by hackers. I think the only cryptocurrency wallet that can't be hacked is hardware wallet like ledger because no one can access, as long you are the only who knows your private key and you have your hardware wallet with you.

Although cryptocurrency are all based on blockchain technology but basically  this software created by people or companies some technologies will fail ,well if your btc wallet is hosted in a third party server then yes it can get hacked  but if your btc wallet is hosted on your own  device personal computer or in an offline paper wallet then ofcourse it cannot get hacked.
But other risks still exist even if you use your own desktop wallet, there are a lot of variations in hacking right now,
including using viruses, if you're not careful maybe viruses already infect your computer and they could steal your private key or other

Yes sure. All of the wallets can be hacked, a hacker has a lot of idea and ways to hack the wallet. like phishing. So we must be careful, we must keep the private key as good as possible, do not let anyone know except ourselves.
True i agree by that so the hackers now are everywhere so lets be wise for  everything especially the wallets.

Cryptocurrency Wallet is also a Human Creation, and I think it's as safe as any cryptocurrency wallet that is still very vulnerable to be cracked. so we have to be careful to keep our wallet, the most important thing is we have to keep the email and password of our wallet, do not let anyone know. because if this happens, the hacking of this cryptocurrency wallet will make us cry.

Yes it can be hacked because hackers always find new ways to hack. We are required to 2FA  to avoid wallet being hacked. I will prefer to use hardware wallets like trezor to have a better experiences on using wallets. Don't use web wallets.

Thanks for the advice. It is very good to use hardware wallet. I start to use it a few months ago, and for real-time I am very happy because the percent of it can be hacked is lower.

Today's technology is so amazing that we all know it can bring good and bad for us. Like everyone's wallet even how much you try to take care of it is likely it will be hacked, Although some have high security, this does not guarantee total security against hackers. Technology increases over time and so does people. Humans are the ones who invent technology so that humans can also know how to hack even with the highest security.

Hackers is always there, because they fined ways to steal money, that is there work. Therefore we have to careful and make our fund safe in all bad people, specially in hackers.

yes, we need to always secure our cryptocurrency wallet so we don't have to afraid and worry from the hacker. once we are not careful with our wallet, we have a big chance to be hacked and we can lose the coins that we have without any chance to get it back. there are many ways to secure our wallet and we need to follow step by step to securing the wallet. besides that, maybe you don't have to use web wallet because I think it's too risky for you especially if you have a big amount.

It can be hacked if you give your important thing like password or private key. You know scammers do all the things just to get our valuable things and they can manipulate our minds to provide all that they want.
Scammers and hackers are different bunch hackers will make some programs or softwares that could potentially steal other's credentials or any other important matters. Scammers on the other hand tend to hustle or persuade a victim to in their business or scheme. Some may do scamming and hacking and this method is actually effective and efficient but as I've said scammers and hackers are different.

Like any piece of software it is entirely possible the wallets have some bugs the hackers can take advantage of, but the most common scenarios are that people download a wallet with malware embedded in it and then people deposit coins in those addresses and they lose their coins, another common scenario is that people are hacked in other ways and then the hacker gets access to the private key and he steals the coins a little afterwards.
There is no system that is safe in the internet. You have a point because even the biggest companies like google, facebook and so on. They still have some bugs in their site and that is why they keep on updating their website and the codes behind their website because if the hackers can see that vulnerability then they will have a chance to get take advantage of that.

The issue of hacking draws my mind back to year 2016 when my account wallet was hacked and that was the day I regretted filling mail forms. Hackers use to send emails that you stand the chance of doubling your coins so kindly fill the forms provided. I lost a total of $600 by hackers. We got to be cautious of our wallet and keep them save.

This type of unsecured activities cause the hacking of your wallet. If you properly follow the security and don't use the wallet in other computer which is compromised then I don't think that your wallet can be hacked. It the user mistakes which cause the hacking of your wallet

Purses can be hacked only if you have not taken sufficient security measures to preserve your crypto currency. Never give details about your wallet and you will never be hacked.
