Yes, I am still using MEW but with metamask integration so that you don't always have to type your private key or insert your UTC file.  It is much safer than every time you insert your private key manually.

I have heard that this was not a regular hach, like hackers broke the security system, so there is no danger to continue using it.

Yes i always use myetherwallet using a chrome extension MetaMask. I think it is more secure than any other wallets. It is also risky to use others because right now MEW is the most trusted wallets existed.

It is advisable to use the hardware to never repeat its incident that happen in MyEtherwallet. But as for me, that still cant afford to buy a hardware wallet, there is an alternative. I still use MyEtherwallet, but I use a third party wallet called Metamask. I use to login my MEW credentials to Metamask, and using Metamask is safe. I can now send and receive funds using Metamask with safe.

Somewhere I read that there are more than 100 million MEW wallets. The issues were detected only in a few dozen wallets. So if you take the necessary precautions, the probability of your coins getting stolen is close to zero.

Yes i still using it. Myetherwallet is an easy wallet for all. The important thing is you must check the certificate bar on your browser to prevent phishing.
Using metamask for your extension is a quite good way to protect your wallet. Just don't get phished.

so far and up to now, maybe it's been nearing 1 year, i always use myetherwallet and no constraint means, but i also use imtoken and nano for alternative wallet
I stil used Mew or Myetherwallet because it is one of the best wallet for our altcoins, and i still used myetherwallet because i trusted myetherwallet really well because when i just started in crypto world the first wallet i used is Mew wallet and until now i still trusted Mew.

I am also using MEW , I like to use it because the hackers cannot do anything with it. My private keys are all safe. I also recommend you to use it but if you have doubt you can also use hardcore wallet.

Yes I still use myetherwallet. For me mew is fast and easy to use. I have been using mew for quite some time and I haven't came across any issues or troubles at all. Yes hardware wallet is always nice and feels more secure but I think no matter how good your wallet is if you are careless then you will still get hacked.

I still use my Mew wallet I love it I have an android wallet and as far as I know, I had no issues with it where can I see if my wallet was affected or not? I did not know they were hacked! Was it hacked through the myetherwallet website??? is it just wallets tied to online, how can I fortify my wallet?

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.
as you said, "recent" it means that it is already done, if there is no problem anymore, why do I need to stop using it. I also recommend using hardware wallet but not anyone can produce one, most of bounty hunters are using their money for some important things.

I still use MEW sometimes but prefer other wallets more. I heard that biggest part of the team go away from MEW and created mycrypto. I think we should follow to the team, not only just a brand.

Yes, why not, it's very handy if you use it with the MetaMask browser plugin. It's very safe.

Hardware wallets are better, though. I still haven't bought a hardware wallet, because I think the imtoken is very useful, and I believe they will give the best protection.

I still use MEW as my main wallet and transaction platform and I see not a single failed transaction or any transaction that involves hacking so I can say that MEW is still safe if you use it safely. Hacking in MEW will always have a tiny bit of evidence and an example of that is when you open MEW, it will direct you to a page with the same sign in page but different URL. BTW, MEW always pops up a warning and shows you how to secure your account so checking it out doesn't hurt and will help you a lot.

Yes, MEW is still ok to use, though therr have been some glitches in past, it is still in good working condition, for me it is one of the best online wallets specifically for ethereum, and not only does it support ethereum, it also supports ERC20 coins as well, however the negative side of it is still the fees, you need to pay gas fees whenever you transafer coins to another wallet, and sometimes it really takes time and you can miss out an opportunity to sell your coins to exchanges, aside from that MEW is also secured, it really works as a great storage for coins.

I'm still using MEW no worries about last  hack attempt. I also use other walllet like imtoken and coinomi for my other token I never put all my assets in just one wallet. Just always keep your private key and password safe.

I use this wallet because I have no problems with it. I tried innovative wallets, but did not see the big advantages in them, I do not see the point.
