Yes, I had about $100 worth of coins on Coinmarkets exchange and they scammed all of us. My advice is go with reputable exchanges and keep only what you need to trade in the exchange the rest keep in a hardware wallet.

I have not faced such a problem. Take your coins immediately to your personal wallet after the transaction is correct.
Hackers and scammers are the biggest threat to cryptocurrencies at the moment. The hacking of exchanges highly affect the price of the cryptocurrency, but also break-ins purses scare people off and reduce the level of confidence in the cryptocurrency.

That is correct.Hacking is the most important issue in the crypto market. But i didnt hacked before. Because always i am trying to be very careful. i am using hardwares and i am not holding my tokens in exchanges. The most dangerous thing in crypto is icos. because too many peoples scammed during investing icos. i am not talking about scam icos.. during crowdsale periods people face with such big problems like icos websites hack or etc.
Hacking is a negative thing in this market. It makes the market to panic and this is solely because it creates FUD. I haven't been hacked Before because i try to protect my assets very well.
A good discussion topic that I have encountered in the past few months, I have never been hacked nick, but I am also concerned about that. I do not believe in anything and anyone is the maxim in my deal.
Hacking us at every step. So you need to carefully invest and protect your coins. It is very important to choose a stock exchange and a coin. And also how trivial it was not to sound but to come up with a complicated password.
it's a problem that hasn't been dealt with until now, and a few days ago, hackers also attacked exchange in Japan, and they stole Bitcoin and altcoin more than 100k USD. it becomes a matter that must be resolved immediately, if not, there will be many other exchanges that will also be hit by the same attack,and the most vulnerable to get hacer is MEW, and I'm sure almost all forum members will experience that, including myself. I hope MEW continues to develop their wallets with better security
I can not say that they kill the cryptocurrency market. Kill cryptocurrency market users who exit the game at any fall. And hackers are in any area of life, even in our usual banks. They will be the most difficult to get rid of ever

Last year I transferred 5ETH from my wallet to gate.io, but the money flew away. At the time, I was operating in accordance with normal procedures. Log in to the exchange, then open ETH recharge, the computer interface jumps out of the transfer address, and then I import 5ETH into that address. But after an hour, my transfer has not yet arrived, then I was surprised, so I opened the recharge interface again, and then I found out that this transfer address is different from the previous one. After that, I found a customer service. They said that this is my own reason, because I opened the phishing website, so no one will be responsible for this. This loss can only be borne by me. 1- Ever been hacked?

Pretty sure that almost all of the major exchanges have had a hacking incident in the past few years, however only a few of them have recovered well and continue to operate successfully in 2018. I don't think hacking is as much of a concerns as it used to be as many exchanges keep the majority of their funds in offline and multi-sig wallets, but it's definitely a problem that is being worked on, and gradually being stomped out.
Very sure about that considering that hackers will always want to look for loopholes almost every time and then it is either they fail or they succeed. For most of the reputable exchanges, it has really been a good time for them to find those loopholes and to also evade the risk of being hacked at that moment and in the future. I have seen some cases of some DDOS attack, but at the end of it all, the exchanges were able to rectify it.I always keep all my passwords in safe places and never keep all my money in one place. This is the key to the success of protection against hacker attacks
Using different password for different website and not using easily hackable passwords/using lengthy passwords are few other additional things everyone must follow. I do hear lots of hacking stories since I have entered into online earning. I was working in PTC sites before. I mean these hacking problems are not just due to high value cryptocurrencies.
I fortunately not faced with such a problem. Now for me, hacking is something that will never catch up with me. I always keep all my passwords in safe places and never keep all my money in one place. This is the key to the success of protection against hacker attacks

I think hacking is killing anything that builded in the internet.
Because no system is safe, hackers will find the gap for hacing our money on the system
Everything can be vice versa, because hackers find holes very well, which can be very well corrected, but today it is very expensive, so I would probably join your opinion, you need to change something because the world is changing.
I fortunately did not have such a situation.There were cases when I mixed up the name of the tokens threw them on the exchange,on which those tokens that were thrown off were not traded.My money remained on the stock exchange.According to the exchange rules, I can't bring them back.To avoid this situation, you need to check the contracts of tokens that you have in your wallet with contracts that are on the exchange.
for my personal wallet, I have never experienced anything like that, and I strongly agree that the main problem of the crypto world is the level of exchange security that is very easy to hack, and bad market conditions are also largely due to hacked exchange news.

For some reason if you are using the major Exchange sites just like binance and then they have been paying all of those victims are getting hacked by hackers and they give a lot of guarantee for your Money.
I more agree with westfield, because by my opinion and experience you get hacked/scammed when you want a little too much on the internet and it's even worse if you do it again, like phishing and if you have 2FA auth. you can get hacked even from that... so:
1. no for crypto world, yes for gaming, several times, but usually I wanted that so I can see what hackers can do and sometimes I didn't know what's happening at the beginning... One time they hacked my gaming account with 2FA, first time they were too slow, so I tryed again when it was 1 minute time left for 2FA and they got in, took my poor 2 million coins from the account and left, and before they even logged in for the first and the second time they DDOSed my internet, so I was without connection like 10 minutes or so, so to everyone if you don't know if it's a phishing site and you have 2FA, you can still wait till at least 5 to 15 seconds threshold
2. no
3. no, because I never encounter a misfortune like this, but my friend did, he got them coins back, but after 2-3 months and that's still a shitty exchange by my opinion if it needs so much time to get your crypto values back...
Yeah I have been hacked and it happened when i was still a newbie hunting for airdrops, they sent me a link to claim my tokens and ask i put my private key into the fake MEW, I did and my tokens gone, though i didn't have much there, it was a experience i have learnt and since then I have since stopped joining airdrops
