You can't ensure it, in field of IT and Computer Literacy it is hard and rigorous to identify their target and minds. If your holding a big million or billion better to hire an IT to fight back those greedy

Anything that is relevant to computer technology has to be questioned in their minds, and hackers are the rebels of conventional thinking patterns.

Hackers are against authority, and in their eyes, there is no system or software that doesn't exist.

So when we don't trade, we have to put the cryptographic currency in our wallet.

but keep in mind , not all hackers are bad. I mean they are also good hackers or white hat hackers that helps people if they have a problem pertaining in computer related stuffs.

black hat hackers are the ones who are bad and they oftenly use their skills and ability of hacking in order to destroy the security of the system so that they can steal some cash whether on a bank or on a crypto wallet.

 however hackers isnt the issue because they are part of the internets ecosystem just like criminal in a real word environment. Police wont have a job if criminals dont exist

Hacking is a problem for market prices but for individual i don't see any problems at all unless you store a lot of coins to exchange because they are still vulnerable from attacks even they have tight security. Only decentralized wallets are safe after all.

Yes it's a big problem and a big threat to all of us. I know some people are not a techyy savvy but reading some blogs and articles in this forum will get you some ideas to get rid of these hackers. if you have alot of money to invest you should buy hardware wallets.

Those japanese exchanges(as I heard) were storing all coins on hot wallets - so I'm absolutely not surprised that they were hacked. With a decent organisation exchange will never experience such problems.

Guys…

I read the new the Japanese Exchange Coincheck loses ¥58 billion in the hacking attack. It’s not a single case in this after a few weeks ago Etherdelta was also Hacked. So how can we ensure that our money is safe on exchanges?
I don’t know how hacking works, and I don’t know how secured our Bitcoin wallets can be cause I’m not a developer or hacker. But normally people do say that for someone to hack your account, they will need to have their hands on one of the very important info, like your email or something like that. Without that, I don’t think it will possible for hackers to hack into anything.
The fact is that hackers break only those networks that interest them and some are very strong in mind and have some value. An ordinary Internet user or a crypto currency need not worry.
Avoid letting your guard down, the best hackers are not going to target you unless you are a whale, but that does not mean that hackers are not trying to get your small holdings they are just going to use phishing  attacks against you, if you're smart you will be able to avoid them but there are many people that will fall victim of them since they do not engage in any kind of security practice.

I think you need to move your coins from safe wallet becauuse we now wallet exchanges site is only temporary better if you send your cons from exchanges site to wallet that you know are very safe. To acoid losing all incase the wallet hacked better if you spread all your coins to different incase the wallet has been hacked you have other coins because your other wallet will not hack so you have money.
No one said wallet exchange is temporary but you cannot just trust them and as long as you do not have a full control over your funds, it is more like not having any funds at all because anything that happens to that exchange happens to your funds. This is the reason most of us always clamor on the fact that people should learn to make use of a wallet where they have access to their private keys as that is the only way you can be good.

Ye I echo many people on here in saying there is no way of ensuring your cryptocurrency is safe on an exchange. You do not at any point control your private keys when the money is on an exchange so you at at the mercy of the dudiligence on the exchange.

I suggest you use Paxful.com instead cuz they have the best security
Lol. If you are really giving a lecture on security, then you should not be giving it based on the platform and paxful is even the last one I would have mentioned in this case.

The thing is that most platforms have been able to inculcate two factor authentications on their website for every user to have an added level of security and if anyone is not using those security levels, then they expose themselves to more danger. As long as you do not just click on any phishing link and you keep yourself safe, you will not have any problem.

I think you should keep your coin on offline wallet at the computer. Or choose a reputable trading platform to keep the coin online. I advise you not to use autobot to trade
You may enable very secure systems but that the end there are always ways around this, even a hardware wallet is not enough after all the hardware wallet can be stolen or some thieves can try to force you to reveal your password, your seed words, or your private keys we have seen examples of this already and as bitcoin becomes more popular I think we're going to see more of this is well.

You don't. Hacks target the exchanges wallet by finding exploits and not the user accounts separately. If you want your funds to be safe, use exchanges for trading only and withdraw to your personal wallet.
Yes hacking problem is the major problem in the Cryptocurrency world. I have faced hacking problem a few days ago. My ethe delta account have hacked by illegal person and they stollen my pkt token.

use exchange only when trading and keep your token in your personal wallet so that be safe there, it is very difficult to deal with hackers but we can still anticipate the risks.
The fact is that today one can not call for their own security, as well as the security of their personal data. If you decide to store your coins on any purse, then be sure to connect multi-level protection. + 2 factor authentication of your account.

Yes, Hacking is very BIG PROBLEM, specially to the world of technology and digital world. The only way to secure our file/balance/transaction is our very unique and very long password. And, to prevent hacking, just don't open any link or site that you didn't know.
Hacking has always been a problem and we cannot do anything about it and now that we have gotten to a stage where everything is gradually going digital and most especially money with a lot of noobs with high level of ignorance on security measures, it even makes things quite easier for them. Over time though, noobs will just have to learn and other newer ones will also have to learn from them as time goes on. It may be a problem now, but only if we really make it one.
That's trueee , as long as you as the only one who store the value digitally aware about how crypto currency space are full of vulnerability , there's nothing to worry about hacking. It's always happened not only in crypto but also things outside crypto . So it's doesn't matter when you act carefully.
