Never give your private keys to anyone,place it into a safe place,something offline.Use hardwallet and metamask as well and you should be fine because it will protect your keys from the malwares,viruses and phishing sites.You might be using web or app wallet right and you shouldnt because these wallets are more prone from being hacked.

Don't store your private keys in your email or computer. Write it down on a piece of paper and lock it away. Buy youself a hardware wallet and place your altcoins on there. Most average around $100 and it's worth it. Keeps your coins safe. Set up 2FA. And always double check the url of exchanges you visit and make sure you are on the real one.

Use a hardware wallet if you have one and if it supports the cryptocurrencies you own.  If not, don't surf the web with the same computer you have your cryptocurrencies on.  Back up all of your wallets and keep it in a safe place.  Bookmark your important cryptocurrency related websites especially MEW.

What is the best methods to protect altcoin from hacker?
Just put your private keys in a piece of paper and never put in on your computer or you might want to install a good anti-virus for your own computer. You should have a routine on how you would expect to increase your security about of your computer or you might want to put your altcoins in a hardware wallet but i'm afraid that there are altcoins that aren't supported by those hardware wallet. So, you must have to decide what you should do in order to protect your altcoins from hackers.

That's one of my fears "hackers" specially when you hold your coins in wallets like myetherwallet or coinbase so the best thing you do for the safety of your coins from hackers is to buy ledger wallet.
Bener gan, exchange and place in the offline wallet if possible. You can print paper wallets from some good sources. Be careful who you trust because this will have an impact on you

Best thing to do is to get a hardwallet because it has some extra layer or protection,some password and code before you accepts transactions,that is why these hackers wont have any good chance to steal your private keys even if your computer was infected by some virus or malwares! you're well protected as it is the most recommended wallets to the community.

Yes, just do not reveal your private key to anybody, take care of your passwords and all the things, which they can use against you! Then everything will be ok

Hold your private key out of online.I mean, never store your key/password in your computer.You can hold your key/password on your pen drive or a paper(paper wallet).I am holding my keys to my pen drive and out of all of the online services.
Right, I don't make use any hardware wallets being purchased online not because I don't have trust but I'm much more confident if I do list it on a paper or store it into my own USB drive which I'm actually doing as of now.Protecting your coins will depend on how you do keep your keys away from the awareness of other people.Keep it for a long time when you are a holder but don't forget on where you did put those informations.

Install metamask extension,anti viruses and anti malwares to protect your browser and computer from those threats,buy a hardwallet i suggest to have ledger nano s i have been using it for a year i didnt find any problem using this hardwallet,it has some extra protection as the private key is built in you wont need to put your keys in exchanges when you are transacting.

you should keep your private key of all your wallets very carefully, do not ever share it with another people including your family, and then do not enter phising site because it can happen very quickly, they can hack your altcoins with just your 1 click

Get ledger or trezor it will be the best and most secured hardwallets,either of the two will be much better than just your wallet alone! extra layer of protection can protect your coins when your computer is infected by the viruses and malwares,private keys are built in too.Use metamask as well to protect your browsers from potential phishing sites.

Buy a hardwallet,because these wallets are the most secured wallet that are existing today,even those infected computers wont give you headaches,because it has extra layers of protection in your wallet that will require you password before proceeding to your transactions,and you will need your personal keys for that.

Do not open and reply phising emails that came into your email, and then keep your private key from another people, you should be careful, because there are a lot of hackers around and waiting for open their phising site to hack your wallet

If you want to keep your tokens totally away from hackers, your private key should be totally kept private to you, because that is the link to your wallet. Another way in which you can keep your coin and tokens safe is by using hardware wallet, such as, trezor. Hardware wallet cannot be hacked, except it is being handled by a third party. Also, if you are using online wallet, ensure you confirm the links you click on so as not to use phishing sites.
