I know crypto people are some of the most deluded people around, with visions of grandeur and all that. Blaming panic sellers. Blaming whales. Blaming bounty hunters. But this is really new for me. Blaming hackers? You know you all sound like the US government blaming small fish for big tsunamis right?

Anyway, stuff like Bitcoin still can't be hacked. Wallet hackings and exchange hackings? Those are all people and company practicing bad security. THEY are bad for crypto, not hackers.

Crypto market is market of freedom, cryptocurrencies are pseudo-anonymous and this place gives opportunity to hackers or another smart people because there is no protection, there is no insurance, there is no authority that will procect you when you loose money, so be smart and protect your self!
in the crypto system that is what really happened. so the information that is owned is taken responsibility by yourself. although security has been given a lot by the developer but there is no system safe

One of the reasons hacking is not healthy for the system, most especially cryptocurrency, is because hackers dump the stolen coins at ridiculous rates, thereby, causing the market to suffer more bear.
I have never been a victim of stolen funds, most especially on exchange, because i keep my funds in my private wallet, that I have full control over, through the private key.

Hacking is really dangerous thing for crypto, huge amounts can be stolen. Its very risky to hold crypto without knowledge of phishing, scam and etc. I imagine people that have been rubbed for over 10K$...

I might agree on you to the idea that hacking might kill cryptocurrency. There are occassions where investors and even bounty hunters did lose a lot due to hacking. A friend of mine was a victim of hacking and he lost several thousands of dollars and it was very hard for him to accept. But to blame the downfall of cryptocurrency just to hacking might be an exaggeration. The lack of usage for a coin kills it. This is the real reason why cryptocurrency falls. Too many investors are just waiting for prices to go up. This will lead to a sudden dumps of coin during times when prices go up which then results to the volatility of the the coin.

i never experience being hack since i start in crypto. we should do things to keep are crypto safe. i always withdraw my coins after i traded and never left it exchange sites. even though exchanges site have good review we can't trust them. also i access MEW through metamask instead of accessing it directly.
we can also minimize hacking risk by using guises so that it will be more difficult to hack because there is no data at all. Hacking can be about someone because there are many things including bad luck. but what happens most often is that they access the phishing system so we really have to be careful.

one of the reason that could down the market is the hacking especially in big exchanges, if you have online wallet just bookmark it now so that you prevent to login a fake one, double check the URL if it is real site, if you want to start trading go to the big exchanges like binance don't go new exchange.

The hacking of the coin these days is increasing from the every source whether it is your Myetherwallet or the exchange account. Nothing is secure. Also, the hacking from the exchange the coins stolen doesn't recover by the exchange. So, what about the Ledger and Trezor don't know clearly.

Yes this can be a reason why the crypto is dying all of the other investors that invest the crypto is not leaving due to the investment of them being scam so i hope this will end because it can kill the crypro itself

I have never been hacked, usually you don't use black software or illegal websites, they can't attack you. Hackers can't attack blocks. They usually steal user information and exploit vulnerabilities in the exchange's website.
It seems to me that you very much underestimate the situation in the hacking services market and in general hackers, I probably would not say that, because you can just offend people and they can show what they are. Today there is nothing safe.

I have never lost my coins or coins. save on myetherwallet and I have never had a problem. maybe I just heard that a market exchanger had been hacked. maybe in the future, it must be safer so that everyone is increasingly interested in entering the crypto world.
If you have very few coins, then of course no one will ever do this intentionally, because the matter is simply not worth it, but if you yourself fall into such a situation that you yourself will give your coins, then it is possible and this is the most dangerous

well, it's true, even though the indodax market that I think is safe from now on, I feel a lot of people are trying to get into my account even though they are not possible because 2FA security has now been added, but this makes me uncomfortable because there are many people trying to steal
There are many of them not only in the cryptocurrency market, because now there are a very large number of people who are also trying to work with what is called brute force, they are engaged in selecting a password, which today can be very, very easy, beware.

I lost funds just because of my mistake. I entered private key on a fake ether delta web page and after period of time I lost money.
Also I received then bounty coins on compromised address and hacker was faster than me Angry
