Topic: HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET - page 25. (Read 5339 times)
In general, as I know, hackers are more interested in crypto exchanges: this allows you to access several accounts at once. That is why attacks on crypto-exchanges are more visible and cause resonance in the market. hacking electronic wallets is not so interesting, because it is difficult to crack them, and the content may not be so solid. to crack cryptichelp need confidence that the amount on it will cover the costs associated with its breaking.
Technology wise, well I really do not have any idea on how to stop those hackers to hack my crypto wallet but I could at least prevent them from doing so. It is by I guess doing some precautionary things like as much as possible to not use public computers to check your wallet status. Checking other devices that are not yours could also help. Saving passwords on any devices could trigger also some risks. That is all I could do.
Sometimes hackers can easily hack your wallet. The best way to protect your wallet is to copy all of your data to USB and store it in safes or somewhere secret
That's true, my friend. To avoid losses, we would need to take the necessary precautions for the sake of our cryptocurrency funds. It has been proven that centralized exchanges, and online wallets are the number one target for hackers. While some of these services offer additional security with 2FA, they're still not the safest way to protect your hard-earned cryptocurrencies. The ideal way would be to either use a hardware wallet for all your transactions, or a cold storage wallet (where the keys had been generated offline).
This way, it would be practically impossible for a hacker to get access into your cryptocurrency wallet. Also, leaving coins in a decentralized exchange, wouldn't suffer the risk of such an attack. Therefore, each day, people are noticing how unsecure cyberspace is, which will lead them to other alternatives to help protect their cryptocurrency funds. In the future, we might depend on decentralized exchanges, and hardware wallets to interact with cryptocurrencies without the fear of hacks or theft.
Thanks for this one, but one thing for sure is that never share something vital about your self as it might be also a way to break into your emails and crypto wallets.
Thanks for the useful tips about cyber safety.
Can someone share their cases if they were hacked? So we can learn from your mistakes and avoid it happening in the future. Thank you!

Very helpful information, especially for beginners. And there are many hackers in cyberspace waiting for these fallen victims are just a few basic steps to protect us but there are also ways to protect ourselves. For example do not join a lot of air drops because this can be a threat to the wallet. You are hacked like your ETH wallet, while the address is always required for you to qualify for a reward. Sometimes, due to the user's carelessness, it's possible that the user's wallet was hacked by another user because they accidentally entered their really stupid private key. The main point here is that, we should always be careful of our credentials to avoid this type of incident.
The only way of doing it so, is just by investing $100 and buying a hardware wallet that is impossible to be hacked, that is the only way! stop being so fool, coinbase, blockchain.info, all those are shitty wallets
You got to think first before you act - you 're responsable of what you're doing. So think FIRST.
Then you should take care about your privacy.
And that's where our coin can get you through Tor network. Check it out

Good instruction for the beginners and old players. Safety is a main part with Bitcoin, hackers are smart too, but using official sites and programs on PC, it is a best way not to let hack you.
Such a very good information. Some get really creative in storing their keys. Some have them engraved on steel then stored in a safe, some encrypt them in music files, while others have them tatooed on their skin. But as we know, the most commonly found in the loss of bitcoin or altcoin is human error. just enter a private key into an airdrop form and an application that contains trojans or malware that is eventually embedded in the pc. be careful in using tools or applications because of the RAT is not really good. And keep your coin from being stolen by others.
HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET; i think great word has been shared, we must not operate our account with any other system because through this hacker can enter and operate in our account. therefore dont use any external system which is used by general public
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.
If you want to became safe your crypto wallet, You need to be careful in what you click and who are the talking with you.I think some hackers introducing their selves as a victim of scammers here in bitcoin so some people give some advice and you will be friends. So they you are comfortable with her/him so you trust him/her. They give a site that forcing you to click and search, in that way I think they can steal your bitcoins or your money in your crypto wallet.
Some get really creative in storing their keys. Some have them engraved on steel then stored in a safe, some encrypt them in music files, while others have them tatooed on their skin
Thank you for very interesting and useful information! Of course, the most important measure of protection is 2FA. But it is impossible not to use public WiFi, I think you just need to use a separate computer for crypto-currencies.

2fa is verry helpful in order to add security to your account but 2fa is not the most important protection because i believe the most important function to keep you safe from hackers is to stay offline. hackers cannot penetrate you if you arent connected to internet. thats why using hardware wallets is a verry good idea better than 2fa's or any other safety methods that you can find online.

why not? i myself did not ever try to use a public wifi and i believe most people do also. mobile recharge or prepaid load nowadays are now super cheap and we can just buy them anywhere in any store so that we can use it to surf the net without having to go the public in order to search for a wifi connections.

which we must be aware of is the attack of spyware, spyware is a spy application that records every log of our activities on the pc and will be sent to the software maker. in between the way the maintenance of krypto wallets from hackers is
- do not upload spyware from unknown sources,
- do not give prifate key to others,
- use a strong password to avoid easy to understand
