I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?
They can be hacked but only if you are not careful with your private keys and somehow disclose them to hacker. The best way is to keep your credentials on an offline  flash drive like usb and disable internet connection when you need to access it.

There could be a possibility that it can be hacked since there is no 100% sure safe in here. And this kind of earnings are decentralized and no assurance that it can be recover once it is being compromised. Perhaps, we just have to be more careful and never put our earnings in one wallet.

I believe that what man made it can break so there is possible to be hacked, the safest way to store your values is to use an offline wallet stored in a removable device that is not connected to the network.
To invest in a large number of assets must invest more wallets with high security. Keep them separate and restrict your internet connection. The bad news and the virus will infiltrate the system that will take away your assets. So learn how to protect your property before the unfortunate event.

So far I haven't seen at least one case of cryptocurrency wallet being literally hacked, up to 100% is when the people are just not careful with their passwords or private keys.

Yes, it can be hacked. I have experienced being hacked my wallet was hacked last february when I supposed to trade my tokens I found out it was gone. My wallet is already empty somebody made a transaction. Maybe because I was not being careful in storing my pinkeys. I saved it in my facebook inbox and also in my email address. I also saved it in my computer. Now, I learned my lesson and I don't want it to happen again.

Bitcoin itself is almost impossible to hack as the blockchain technology that forms the basis of the currency is constantly under review by other Bitcoin users. This means that it is no more at risk than other payment methods such as PayPal or traditional credit cards.
Before you open up an account on Coinbase or other exchanges, set up a unique email that you are going to use for that account.

Make sure to set a really hard and long password, and you are the only one to access it from a piece of paper that you control. Don’t talk publicly about cryptocurrency, especially on platforms such as Facebook which use your email to identify you.
Be on the lookout for suspicious activity on your cell phone and especially notifications of a SIM swap or port.

For it is possible as long us we used internet for our wallet it could be easy for the hackers to penetrate it..  Sometimes we cant truly predict it that's why we need to be aware always..  We cant predict it that's why we need to be always careful especially now that lots of them are everywhere... It is much better if we used a hardware wallet to make sure we are truly secure...

Any active wallet can be hacked, but each of us can protect ourselves, for example, have a cold purse that will be on the device not connected to the Internet.

online wallets are also hackable. In the cryptocurrency world, anybody holding the private key to a wallet address is authorized to access the coins in that wallet. But that doesn’t mean you’re fully safe and sound. Electrum vulnerability, 2 time hacked Parity wallet, problems Nano Ledger S as the most sold hardware wallet on the market, are all a example

if we don't protect crypto currency wallet with step 2 verification then it produce threat to wallets so cryptocurrency wallets are hackable only when we handle the wallet with utmost security Smiley Smiley

There were a lot of people lost money because of hijackers in the real world. Also in cryptocurrencies, we have one thing we called hackers. They are those people bypassing your priv key in order to get your money in your wallet. So they can be hacked.

No they will not be hacked.  The only way anyone can get your funds in these wallets is if you make a mistake with your security.  The algorithms that are used to secure these wallets are unbelievably secure. 
that's false dude.we heard many news that many exchange walllet hacked.and also cryptocurrency wallet too.few days ago many people claims that their balance in myetherwallet stolen.
I am not going to trust these threats because it is only here to mislead the investors but actually it is not easy to hack a bitcoin wallet. Now there are many wallets but I think blockchain is a wallet which is almost impossible to hack. So use blockchain I am sure this issue will be no more there, hacking is not a big deal thanks to bitcoin wallets now ratio of bitcoin hacking is almost equal to zero.

Yes Of course,only if you just let your private key and Codes on you online and open sources. Don't give your password to anyone for security purposes. Do not open and link just sent on your email because they cam hack you using Phishing its by clicking nay link and then they will gather you details and easily gets you robbed. But I think you'll be safe as long as you are aware of what you are doing on your wallets
