I still prefer to use MyEtherWallet as my storage option for my ERC-20 coins and also for my ETH. Its a decentralized wallet for me

With the recent hack, I assume a lot of people will switch to something else, what do you think?

I still recommend using a hardware wallet over the safety benefits though.

Of course I do, MEW I use to do crypto transfer between exchange. I have not found any way other than MEW which I think is the best in the present,

Myetherwallet and Metamask the two are good. Myetherwallet is online based while Metamask is a browser plugin. But if you have your own PC, I will recommend Metamask for you. it is easy and more safe to use plus it has other added advantage
I suppose MEW might be more secure because you can hack right into a MetaMask account with a dictionary attack on a weak password or the seed phrase. But I'm now not certain why the team recommends signing into MEW with MetaMask over the private key. As if a hacker could not get to the ETH private key if they have the MetaMask password.

Do you still use MEW?

Sure why not using it? It is a very good wallet to store the tokens collected during bounty campaigns.
You just need to be very carefull in the way you use it. Instead of opening the wallet all the time to check the coins, it is safer to use etherscan with only the ETH address.
Now off course it would be crazy to store a large amount of ETH on it. There are plenty of safer options.

I was always faithful to use MEW as this seems to be the safest wallet. And until recently were still in my token wallet MEW and I would also be careful using this wallet. During my private key that stores it certainly I feel safe.

Its my previous wallet that i used for now. I'd never hacked for now but i always take care for using this for the safety of my token. But many hackres do everything to fool of all many participants who are hardwork to have many rewards and they dont think their effort.

MEW is the best wallet and worth using, with MEW then we are easy to control the ETH and all available tokens, and I'm happy since using MEW more than 2 years but I never found any problems.

Utilizing equipment wallet is greatly improved, however some may think about the cost and thus, they may choose to utilize MEW, which appear be free. It regards select what won't make you free your well deserved fortune, than due to some little sum that you will pay to get s great wallet and free what you have.

Equipment wallet is the thing that everybody ought to utilize most particularly now that we have the exercises of con artists to be bulwark.

Yes. I still use MEW. I am positive that its still the safest wallet we can have. It even offers an offline wallet that is useful for storing coins. Just make sure that you keep the private key safe and use a backup device for encryption files. Always check the URL - phishing sites are everywhere. I also recommend that you create a new wallet every time you merge a MEW to an exchange. Better safe than sorry.

Normally Google Chrome blocks the phishing sites as soon as they are reported. But in case you open a link from the email, then it is another story. So be very careful about spam mails which land in your inbox. And if you get such phishing mails, please report them.

Indeed, despite everything I utilize MEW and I have no issue at all with it. In spite of the fact that, I think about the hack, however I generally guarantee that make utilization of just the destinations in my information base. I likewise have such a significant number of companions who still utilize MEW and they are still fine with it. My accept and thought on this is whichever site we need to sign into, not simply MEW alone, we should guarantee to check it each time and make certain it's anything but a phishing site. A companion's tokes were stolen by programmers, because of going by a phishing site, that she was currently mindful of.

Im still using it, and just feels everything is fine since I was connected MEW to metamask plug in. I imported MEW account into metamask since I heard news about the MEW has been hacked.

I'm also using a hardware wallet, but there is a time or option that you need to login to myetherwallet when you are going to add or transfer new coins, especially those coming from ico or airdrop coins, it's just important that you bookmark the site and install metamask or verifier to be sure that you are landing on the right page.

When it comes to safety, maybe MyEtherWallet is not the best. This wallet is safer than a lot of online wallets and wallets that are integrated into exchange platforms as in case of MyEtherWallet you are the one taking control over your funds and your private key. However, when it comes to threats such as hacks and thefts, then MyEtherWallet is not secure enough as well. But it's still good for those who don't need to login every day or several times a day.

Yes. I am still using MEW and still have plans to use it in the future. I have bookmarked the site to make sure that I not entering my details on a phishing site. I think with the recent hacks, MEW has nothing to do with it and its a users fault. They unintentionally entered their private key to a MEW phishing website. A lot of people are still using MEW to store their coins - at least 70%.

Yes, I still use it. In fact, it is very safe for you to use it with MetaMask.
