Hacking is a part of the each system so it is not so surprising. What is more significant that scam is usual to find it here and it is spreadin for so good way.
Of course and if to make search about hacking in traditional banking system it could be a revelation how often this happened

hackers have become the thing that often happens in crypto. This is indeed quite disturbing and many make people leave because of fear. But if it is not countered certainly promising fields such as Crypto will be futile. none would want to replace for the loss that occurred including any Exchange and might make a lot of people frustrated.

I am very grateful that until now I have never been hacked, always be careful when I look suspicious. You can use 2FA for additional security when logging in to the exchange

I have lost all Altcoins in Myetherwallet wallet when I clicked the link to claim airdrop token and accidentally put my private key to sign in the fake wallet. Since then, I never do this again and not put my private key anywhere else in internet

Activities like this are not entirely wrong if done for the intended purpose, but most of what happens instead leads to negative things, I hope activities like this do not have a large scale, so that no one will be harmed, and I also hope that activities like this should be used as an effort to advance the world of education in good internet activities

Of course, hackers kill the market because they contribute to the fall in market price whenever one big exchange site is hacked. Users of crypto must not used exchange wallets are permanent storage of coins because the exchanges are always under attack and system upgrade which might lead to lose of tokens.

I've been a victim of a phishing site before and it is really frustrating to be one but i blamed myself for not being careful about it. In opening a websites make sure that you will never put your private key and passwords if they required it.

In general, this seems to be true, because many people just lose money, but there is a very good idea that will hinder you in the future. Do you think maybe all this hacking news is really just not true?

hackers are merely a small part of the risk in crypto and this will not be able to kill crypto. even though it is indeed quite disturbing and disturbed many who would be this. but for being safe and not enough data in storing the secret private key as I think it will remain secure. There is no Exchange or legal entities that want to replace for the loss incurred and of course because it's the most important thing is going to be cautious.

Hackers is indeed a very big problem for the cryptocurrency market. After all, the very belief of people in the safe use of cryptocurrency is undermined. However, not only the exchangers, but also the wallets of the owners of cryptocurrency are cracked. I myself have had several cases of tokens being stolen from my wallets through password cracking in my email. Therefore, I believe that for ordinary citizens who do not know how to increase the security of storing their cryptocurrency, this will be very unsafe. After all, hackers have felt easy money and their number will become more and more.

I were holding funds on several exchanges which were hacked. Fortunately, my funds were not affected with the hack. I hold on exchanges only the coins for trading and the rest I am storing on  a hard wallet. Lesson learned.
It is probably a good idea to never leave any money in an exchange for longer than necessary, I know that you are going to lose some money on fees if you do that, but paying some additional dollars to protect your money seems like a good deal to me, I say this because a lot of people use the wallet they have in an exchange as their main wallet and they have lost all their money when there was a hack, they could have saved themselves millions of dollars by just paying a few dollars in each transaction.

Fortunately I have never been hacked and never lose your coins on the exchange. But I've heard so many stories about it. Break-ins are very much afraid investors, very sorry to lose his million dollars, so big investors don't come on the market and waiting for the cryptocurrency will be safer.

Stop using a layman term like hacking to describe all the issues.
It is called phishing and that is the only way a person can lose access to password and wallet's private keys.
It doesn't happen unless you're yourself careless and click on those links which look suspicious

I have no experience but I knew someone whose account was hacked. He shared his important keys to someone, his wallet and other relevant information. He trusted to that person and then one day. He can't just open his wallet again. The day after again, he recovered his account and checked it but he was just disappointed to see his balance turned to 0. Trust nobody here in the cryptoworld. You can be a nice person but be secured too when it comes to those things which needs a privacy.

Tips on how to avoid been hacked
1. Avoid having your token on an exchange for a long period of time.
2. Do not access your wallet through a link sent to your mail.
3. Use the 2fa Authentication to access your wallet and every available means of security provided by an exchange or wallet.
