MEW can be used temporarily but not for everlasting long, hardware wallet seems to be the best, its easy for those in Europe, Asia and north and south America to get a hardware wallet, but those in Africa lament the difficulty in getting one.
No even for long term like 5-10 years mew is advisable to use its very lightweight and easy to use wallet and because mew gives you a full control of your wallet like exporting your privatekeys theres no problem if someday mew will be offline you can still manage your eth wallet using your own private key in different 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.

Just used MEW right now to transfer some bounty rewards to exchanges.

I would recommend people to use it because it is extremely convenient, but only as a gateway to safer wallets or exchanges. Using MEW with metamask has been known to be the safest way to manage transactions so far. Using MEW beats running your own node just for "security."

MEW is the safest all the way and It is easy to use . You just need to be aware to visit the correct url. Definitely  I still use MEW , this nothing better than MEW . I think MEW  continue business  til 2020
MyEtherWallet (MEW) is a free, open-source, client-side interface for generating Ethereum wallets, and MEW  has a cheap cost.

Yes is still us MEW, ITS still one of the best wallets there is  in the crypto platform especially when storing ETH and ERC20  tokens, the speed at which these coins are reflected into the wallet is just impressive as there is little or no delays when it comes to such transactions,if encrypted well and all the security protocals looked into, MEW IS just as safe and will safely keep your tokens away from the hackers

The problem with the recent hack was not really with mew but they were being dns hacked, there servers got hacked and website got redirected to a phishing website. All alts remain on blockchain and not on mew so unless your pvt keys are exploited, you are safe. Use hardware wallet to be 100% safe when using mew or any other browser based wallet.

wallet hardware is better than online wallet, some online wallet does offer some good security, but the security can not be fully accounted for, because some time has proven that online wallet has been hit by hack

Yeah, I still use mew. So far, I am fine in exploiting the facilities from mew. Indeed, some news is discussing the robbery of crypto currency from this mew. In fact wherever we keep our crypto currency assets, all wallet have the potential to be robbed. But, we can protect it by doing security against our digital wallet. Before anything bad happens, then you should improve the security of your wallet. You can read threads that discuss tips on securing mew wallets in this forum. I have also given tips in the thread. Don’t forget, make sure that only you who control your wallet.

Yes, I still use Myetherwallet because hardware wallet is very important to us to avoid scammers. For me, MyEtherWallet is more reliable and secure.

So on this wallet there were many problems, but as for me, he was most comfortable in using to store his tokens and therefore I left all my tokens there

MEW was one of the first wallets that was universally recognized among many ICOs. But in our time, a purse for storing digital tokens should not have a heaped up functional, as this can scare off users. so now they prefer simpler wallets.

I still use it because of MEW because most of the bounty campaigns always require the wallet MEW to receive the token. I'm not afraid of hackers because the money on my wallet is very small. so they will never steal mine.
I often transfer all my money earned to cash to cover the cost of living. Also I invested in ICO projects and after receiving the token I sold them immediately. Cheesy

yes of course. there is nothing which speaks against MEW. runs reliably and if one is careful also
without problems. 100% guarantee is never given but MEW is certainly not bad  Smiley

Im still using it, and will always use it.. MEW is the best wallet for ERC20, you just have to stored your private key properly. Do not get phised, do not store the key where it can get hacked. Write it down on a paper, copy it and keep it on your wallet or closet.
