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.

I recommend using a cold wallet.

Yes, I'm still using my MEW because its easy to use and also I just often open it. Also I just carefully read the URL and make sure to bookmark the right MEW site. Just make sure that you don't post or give your private key on the other sites or forms. They can surely hack your account and also be careful on clicking some links on your email especially if it requires you entering your private key.

I am still using MEW because i think that it ll be useless try switch to another wallet. I feel like no matter the advanced of technology, people are always gonna figure out ways to hack it. However i am using extension of MEW which i think is gonna secure the wallet, its metamask.

I only use MEW for a few purposes, just like for using Idex, Forkdelta, and a few other exchanges.

I still use MEW because until now have not found any obstacle or hacking. And hopefully it never happens like that.

I am still using MEW. The reason is 1) I am using a hardware wallet (no chance for my private key to be hacked). 2) I am using the legit chrome extension of MEW, which is a offline version of MEW (not affected by the recent hack).

Man, how about hacking your extension from back-end, like update on your browser, and the private key in the hands of the attacker.
I advice to download offline version from Github. It's the best way to safety.

I still use mew. It is simple to use and a good place where to hold ETH and ERC-20 tokens as well and does not require any downloads. Most of people who want to hodl erc20 include me use Myetherwallet

Yes, I'm still using MEW and will continue to use it. I can correctly type the address of the site and verify the authenticity of certificates. It saves me from losing my coins.

Indeed, with the incident that has happened to MEW made a lack of trust on the web and now I have also switched to using third party apps, and so far using this app is still safe and convenient, probably will not access MEW using the web from MEW.

Myetherwallet is as functional and convenient as any other wallet. Occasionally exposed to phishing attacks, but everyone will continue to use this wallet for years. You will not have any problems if you are attentive in handling it. And will not Shine their private key anywhere!

There are some others alternative wallet else MEW, so i don't think comparing them would be good to discuss because I've been using MEW for some years and still happy using with it so far, as they have provided private keys for every wallet so this can be your backup if there is something happen with them ex sites down, etc.

I'm using MEV. Since the hardware purse in our country is difficult to buy. I just advise you to get a few MEV wallets. And not to keep on one purse a lot of altcoins.

Yes to until now I am still faithful to use Myetherewallet, because of I used to follow ICO project always platform ETH. Using MEW I feel it safe to store my coins, even within months. With the news that MEW is easy to steal people, I am not afraid. As long as I hold my private key.

I still use myetherwallet. I trust it and I don't think it will be that easy now to hack MEW. They have been careful and even reminded its users to always double check the site for phishing activities and probably fake websites of MEW. It's also my preference since it is easy to use.
