We have to take precautions to keep our wallet safe from the hackers. Like we should make our double accounts. In the first account we must keep our important expensive and crypto-releated expensive. The second account should be kept for normal use. If the double account is not posibble then we should keep the password secret of your account. We should not tranction anyone in front of us. In this way we can keep our valet safe from hackers.

You can use the offline wallet that we know by the name of ledger nano, with it you can safely store all your assets offline, provided you can not remove it, or destroy it, because if it happens then all your digital assets will vanish. But the positive part you will be much safer than hacker attacks

Ledger nano is still the best hardware wallet for me. It keeps my funds safe and away from harm of the attacks of the hackers. Right now, it might be a good time to safely secure your funds because there are many instances that the hackers are eagerly wanting our funds.

I use several wallets. I save the basic funds on the hardware wallet. to enter the reserve I use metamask. I plan to buy a separate laptop for offline transactions

Me too. The main wallet that I use, I use a hardware wallet to store it and I make access on it offline to ensure no possible harm. And I have also a etherwallet in source of my trading funds. I keep it just minimal with many wallets.

I saved my assets on MEW. I store keystore on my PC's internal storage and so far it's safe. and also be careful on phishing sites, because when we will withdraw or deposit, we must enter a private key that is very vulnerable to hacking if someone else knows. therefore you must be careful on phishing sites, and it is also important to bookmark sites that are trusted in your browser.

This is for those who use wallets with cheap transaction fee, such as ethereum based wallets.
There are some who cannot yet afford to purchase a hardware wallet. On that note, i have a suggestion on how your wallet can be safe from hackers. I have always noticed wallets that get easily hacked are those that are subject to public view.
Try as much as possible to have a separate cold wallet address that you do not copy and paste the private key, and neither do you share the address with anyone. You can use it to store most of your valuable coins.
Even if you want to transfer any coin or token to an address belonging to another person, first transfer it to your public wallet before sending it out.

My advice to you so that you will not get hack or get phishing try to use metamask, and do not always paste your private key to some sites or in social media chats. Or buy a trezor or a ledger that is more secured and safe than metamask. Smiley

The truth is you will never protect your wallet for 100% but you can make it more safe with simple actions.  Pretection with your access etc.

Indeed, I am totally agree with you. Despite of multiple cold wallet and hard wallet you will store your coins. There is no 100% guarantee that your coins is really safe. You can protect your coins to minimize of control of it or store it anywhere. Its really important to have a back up of your wallet private key in a safe place so it will never be hacked.

Dont click every links and store your key on offline storage.
Its general rules to prevent you hacked

The simpler way you say, is that I have not completely trusted the site, I almost always check the source I came in and make sure there is no problem, I conservative do not like to explore for fear being attacked. Do you see me doing that okay?  Grin

that's what I did until now, it's just a way to minimize hacking in our wallets, but there is another thing I do is use my laptop carefully, I don't use my laptop to do other work except crypto. so the device that I use is only for crypto.

Make a multiple wallets and divide your assets into a portion of the wallet, to ensure that you can minimize the risk threat of the hacker. For example, make four wallets, and divide your assets to 25 percent per wallet. And also make sure not to expose your wallet identity online. Just to be sure.

Ethereum based wallets like Myetherwallet, in my opinion, are very safe. And I made a number of wallet addresses to store tokens and be safer. You must be able to maintain the wallet's private key and not to access it online.

good advice I guess what you have to offer by dividing the wallet of its functionality. indeed good if nothing special to save and nothing special to Transact. but it also has the risk when all just stored in a wallet, too. but that clearly does not store the private key when carelessly I guess wallet will remain safe to use.

We are almost on 2019 and there are still people asking this kind of stuff?

it is more than obvious that you do not need to be a fool,  and you need to protect your coins, just keep yours on a hardware wallet (trezor, ledger, keepkey) or any other that is suitable for this.

And then forget for some time, that is the way to make some profit + having your tokens/coins safe.

The most important rule is to save your private key. You must store this data in a very safe place, but not on a computer.

I think that the best way to protect your coins is to use several different wallets. To my mind, it is better to make so that nobody knows the passwords from your wallet. I think that it is not difficult to protect it

Protecting your wallet isn't only a necessity but its one of the most important things needed to survive the harsh terrain of this industry. Here are some important tips to keep you in the clear at all times. Always ensure to keep your private keys, keystore files safe and avoid inputting them on any site that requests for them. Also, ensure you bookmark trading sites and wallet sites such as MEW and always access these sites directly from your bookmarks to avoid falling prey to phishing sites. Another helpful point is to have an entirely separate wallet for importing your tokens when accessing decentralized exchanges for trading. With these few points, you should be in the green always...
