HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET
Protect yourself from cyber criminals
Good day to all of you guys I am EdsnowAngel a programmer and a bit security tester in different platforms. Now I heard to my friends a lot of concerns saying "please help me my bitcoin wallet was hacked!!"
Ok ok first thing first when your bitcoin wallet gets compromised then your funds was send in different wallet then it is irreversible meaning no return of funds!! so I wanna tell everyone how to protect your bitcoin wallet from such kind of situation.1st: Protect your GMAIL or EMAIL ACCOUNT
We all know we use GMAIL as our email provider for such accounts like blockchain then we can recover and approve login with email in some wallets, now when your email account was targeted and get compromised then say goodbye to your bitcoin.To secure your bitcoin wallet(ex: blockchain or other) go to your google account settings. and then turn on the 2FA(2nd factor authentication) here is the guide on how to do it: STEP BY STEP GUIDE
2nd: Use your own DEVICE or COMPUTER/PHONE
It's a very bad idea to use someones device(ex:from friend) to make a transaction in your bitcoin wallet why? because first you don't know what is the capability of that person regarding that matters and you don't know if that phone has a lot of malwares and spywares.So we cannot say that you are safe using someones device to make transactions.
3rd: Always backup you PK's or PRIVATE KEYS
This is the most important thing to remember for everyone using your ETH or BTC wallet without backing up your Private keys then you can't recover you wallet in case you forgot your wallet.PK's are very important but there are thing you should do first. Make sure you store your PK backup somewhere that you only know and not from your computer because there are some spyware that might inside of your computer that can steal that file so make sure you back it up print in a paper and hide it to the place where you only know.
4th: Don't open links from malicious emails
This method was called email phishing where an attacker will send the same email in thousands of random users once the victim will click the link in that email then his or her device was compromised to avoid this please do not click the links included in the email immediately please always have time to check who is the sender of that email and if that email is came from the site where it supposed to came from.
5th: Do not trust PUBLIC WIFI
It's quite good to have access with free wifi's but have you think this: IS THIS A SAFE NETWORK? without you knowing maybe some of the people connected to that same network may have idea and skill on how to sniff passwords and credentials this method was so called DNS SPOOFING or SNIFFING if you want to use public wifi then use it not just with your bitcoin transactions.
6th: Do not login on Suspicious links
This method is called PHISHING where an attacker will send you a link to login with your bitcoin wallet luring you with the legitimate site example is:
the real site is: https://www.blockchain.info/
the fake site is: http://www.blockchain.ga/
then once you login to the fake site then the hacker or attacker will have now your credentials. Please always check for the green lock on the url bar and the word HTTPS in the link.
so this are some of the way to stop hackers to hack your bitcoin or crypto wallet. If you have other information then you can comment it down and lets help others.
Think before we click and often we always connect our device where. Anyway this is a good information for all users, at least we can realize how to avoid being cheated and infiltrated by hackers and trying to steal money that is hindering their future. ta There are some good anti-virus and anti-malware software on your computer and most importantly use a hardwallet so that your computer is infected by these things you will still have some protection.
Remember again - on the one hand, blockchain has emerged popular because of some of its features. However, on the other hand, hackers donʼt sleep and there will be malicious penetrations.
Plus, exactly the anonymity of the owner makes it easy to be changed.

In my opinion, you cannot ask hackers to stop hacking other’s account even though there’s law regarding on it. But, one thing is for sure, you can protect and secure your account so that, they won’t be able to access it.
Any digital wallet can be hacked if the private key is exposed.
A private key is exposed only via user error (saving your private key in your email or desktop for example and having somebody find it).

I will share how to secure my bitcoin wallet from these irresponsible hackers. I enabled the security features on my wallet completely, like turning on the 2FA feature and making sure the email address is not automatically forwarded to someone else's email. I will change my password bitcoin periodically.

This is really a good advice for the bitcoin and other altcoin users. Thanks for the good advice.
Also the users have to protect their wallet by hard security key. They have not same security key at the different place and they have to change their security key some days after after. They should not give to anyone their personal security. It should have to hide. Thus they can save ans stop hackers to hack their crypto wallet.
you can utilize a disconnected wallet to complete your activity and the record wallet or trazero wallet made for it clearly the earth isn't sheltered at all such a large number of cash stolen individuals so you need to pick the most secure
Thank you very much. The information you provide is very good for me and for beginners to participate in bitcoin. This is a great help and it is very important to protect the bitcoin account. I have recently restricted the use of the third party service, as well as not click the links that are in my email.
All good advice - way too difficult to actually do it. Hackers are going to get your money and your family won't be able to buy a fish. Bitcoin is dangerous.
1. Try to create a long password so that it is difficult for the hackers to hack.
2. Its safe to use two factor authentication.
3. Always be careful when downloading anything because some things may have malware attached to them, thereby allowing the hackers to read everything on your phone.
4. Please avoid using public wi fi as it makes it very easy for the hackers to hack the computers or phones connected to the network.

information that is very useful for beginners, and also can remind for professionals. because I think the main enemy of the cypto is hecker, so we all have to be careful and maximize your security to reduce the risk of losing our cyrpto
I’d also recommend to protect your wi-fi router, as there are viruses that attack not PCs but routers, and then intercept the inbond and outbond traffic and send your data to hackers. Check this article, I found some important information here:
https://www.techradar.com/news/vpnfilter-router-virus-more-dangerous-and-widespread-than-initially-thought
The best method to be protected. Use only authorized wallets and sites. Do not tell anyone and now passwords. Use only the home network for work.

I often receive suspicious email links into my email. but I never open it even though it's a very interesting offer. I just open an email from a verified source or that I know. if you have the potential or have a large fund in the crypto wallet is sure a lot of cyber crime that will pursue you so be careful.
For me rhe best way to secure your crypto earnings and investment is by keeping it in a hardware wallet or a paper wallet.
The hackers couldn't access or use it unless they have your passphrase.
