Topic: does private keys really safe (Read 122 times)
Don't worry. If something was wrong, your BTC would be far from being the main target. Most likely bitfinex's or other big ones. As you can see they were never cracked.
if site hacked hacker can access our coins.
You just don't expose your own private key in public and then it might be safe... for a while..
the private key are really safe if you don't give it to anyone.
Your keys are safe until we have quantum computers.
safe enough.
if you don't get caught on fishing attack.

anyway thanks for you all for these precious advises , as i understand those are just randomly generated private key to encourage us to put our private keys for testing ( stoleing ) ,but really they made a huge efforts to generates this big number of fake private keys hopping to fish someone with 10000 satoshi balance like me
So where on the site do they ask you to add your private keys in a malicious way?
You can simply add already leaked private keys, but i really wouldn't call this site a phishing site.
Also, these keys aren't fake, they are real and have a corresponding valid adress. try it out for yourself.

Add vulnerabled keys:
If you found vulnerabled private keys or hacked something great, please add these keys into our database. You can show your proof of hack to everybody and prevent future leaks of private keys.

i think that private key is not safe enough, because it can be phised by any phising site. i've ever stand for that condition when a site get phising my private key, please be aware if you visit a phising site, don't ever put your private key, so your balance can't be stolen, and make sure after you login from your wallet to logout. because if you forget to logout probably you will get phising off.
it is beter to choose your private and public key manually without hashing maths then import them to blockchain (stupid solution but effective) don't lesson to me iam anew bie

Always check twice, the world is full of trap. Control your own keys systematically, if you did oobviously your pocket is safe. Otherwise, There is a better chance of you getting and taking your coins. So yes it’s safe as long as you aren’t stupid on the Internet.
That page is real.
A private key is just a number in the range 1 to almost 2256. The number 10 is a private key. The number 1000000 is a private key. The number 12345678790 is a private key.
The security is in the fact that the range is so large that the chances of finding a private key that is being used is too small to even try.
Now, the danger with that page is that it encourages you to enter a private key. DO NOT GIVE ANY OF YOUR PRIVATE KEYS TO THAT PAGE. With a private key, they can easily steal your bitcoins.

I found this site which claim's to have all bitcoins private keys ,if it is true how they found it? and by which way we could avoid hacking our keys ?
this is the site

Don't trust it. The person who should own the private key is you and only you. Don't expose your private key. You could be scamed or hacked.Careful with this sites.
As he said :
You have more chances to win the lottery than getting a single key.
Becareful because nowadays there are so many hackers. And who knows you might stumble into one. Put extra measures to keep your private keys safe. Also dont easily trust any site that will tell you to download something
Regardless of this site being real or fake there's no way it's going to contain every single address.. Bitcoin has never been hacked so nobody has access to all the private keys that have been generated trough out history. In that sense private keys are safe. However if you are stupid enough to fall for a scam that lets you generate a private key online, then you might find yourself getting your bitcoin stolen because someone else has the keys as well.
don't trust any sites, it just fake. don't trust anybody to keep your private key except you.
the private key are really safe if you don't give it to anyone.
sometime people forget to keep their security, unconsiously, some people do a foolish when participate in bounty, they fill the address requirement with their private key. i need to give them applouse, and i hope you're not the one of them.

I think private key is not safe, case example if someone has got pishing so private key look no thing we can do, except waiting for our coin is stolen. it is different if we prevent for example using metamask or etheraddresslookup
http://directory.io/ also works the same; they just indexed all the known private keys into one place for users to hopefully snipe something out of it if in case an unknowing person sent something to these addresses. Got lucky one time and snagged 0.001 on one of these addresses but that was it lol.
This isn't a scam of some sort. As a matter of fact, it helps some people to gain knowledge on how private keys work in general and how easy it is for them to take it once they happened to stumble across one.
It's fake. There is no way to get all private keys. You have more chances to win the lottery than getting a single key. The website is surely trying to scam people. You're fine as long you don't expose your key in public (ie: posting on forums, etc)

It's not necessarily a scam, it is simply all the the private keys that are known.
Ofcourse the chances of any balance on these adresses is extremely low.
For example 5HpHagT65TZzG1PH3CSu63k8DbpvD8s5ip4nEB3kEsreAnchuDf does infact correspond with 1EHNa6Q4Jz2uvNExL497mE43ikXhwF6kZm.
Try it yourself at http://bitadress.org
oh thanks that is great
