Of course, the owner of the account is to blame, because he was inattentive and therefore his data was stolen.
I agree with you, the owner of the wallet is solely to blame, he has badly secured his wallet from crooks, so they hacked in and stole all the money from the wallet
And if the exchange is liable, they would do something to give incentive to the respective users that have been damaged. But on the different side, your account means your responsible. And every fund that you deposited onto the exchanges was even your decision.
Be vigilant on using the internet, a lot of phishing sites are existing today and if you are not aware of that and you've been clicking links on your email, be sure that it came from the legit source because if they are starting to ask for login credentials, report it to the respective management of exchanges and don't fill up those links.
Hackers will always find ways to find another victim so we should be more responsible in assuring the security of our own account. We should not be confident that our accounts are already safe because it's been protected by our exchanges but the fact that we have deposited a big amount on our account, then we should do our part to make it safe and secured all the time.

if I've created account/wallet on coinbase or any other exchange then my account is hacked and my coins/money lost who are responsible for it
The Exchange where I've created account Huh
is it my mistake Huh
what's you thought about it Huh

and how i make my account safe  Huh

Before passing blames it is good to know how the hack happened. If it's a hack targeted at the exchange where many other users were affected, then it's not your fault but the fault of the exchange for failing to protect their users; this is the reason it's never wise to store assets on any exchange no matter how big it is. On the other hand, if the hack is strictly on your account, then its your fault, because someone might have had access to your account which will only be possible through you; that is, you failed to secure your details.

I do agree with this point of view. Check first why this situation happened, from the exchange or from your account only. And after that, you can act accordingly. Don't hesitate to reach out for the support of that particular exchange. And yes, as rdewilde said, never store assets in exchange. Better transfer it to offline wallet. Even if the exchange is trustworthy like coinbase, they are still vulnerable to hacking. As hackers are becoming sophisticated, it is only a matter of time that someone will hack a secured crypto exchange.

If the exchange is hacked then it is not your fault, but if it is only your account on that exchange then it is 100% that is your fault.
You might have some virus on your computer which is called key logger, or you visited a wrong link of the website and put your account information there.

For you to be safe:
1. make sure that you save your information properly and no one knows it.
2. make sure that the link you will visit is correct, bookmark them or of not before going there go to coinmarketcap.com first and click the link there.
3. never share your information account to anyone or put in a form online.

In my practice, there have been several cases of cracking wallets. I want to say right away that in any case, you yourself are to blame. The first time they slipped a virus into me, and out of inexperience I took it and my PC was hacked and my wallet accordingly. I am to blame because I took the virus. The second case, I went to a phishing site and also paid for the loss of some tokens. In this case, I am again to blame, since I was not attentive to the site that I opened. The only case when others are responsible is when they hack into either the exchange where you have funds or the wallet itself has holes. In these cases, administrators and developers are to blame, but such cases are extremely rare. In all cases, only accumulated experience will help, which will let you understand what you need to do and what not.
From your given statements it's true that the first to be blame with mistakes that being done would be the owner itself, you must have proper educations before you join this industry, you need to have enough knowledge in each grounds to secure your account and avoid being a victim of hackers. Those people are just around and if you allow them surely everything will be sucked from your wallet.

For safety I can say one thing.  The main thing is not to follow unfamiliar links and install an extension in the browser that will block such actions or warn.  And about the hacking due to the fault of the exchange, there is only one way out: do not store money that you are afraid to lose on little-known exchanges.  Large exchanges in such situations compensate for the damage from their pockets.

No exchange wallet should serve as a wallet for saving or keeping assets. That exchange is big, well known, has good records orthat someone vouch for it, does not mean that it is safe. However, there might not be a problem with the security system of the exchange, but you as a user might have got phished.
Always use a complex password on every of your exchange accounts and use Google 2FA to lock your accounts if possible. Also, ensure that you bookmark the correct exchange websites.

If the exchange is compromised then it's exchange's fault and the responsibility is totally upon the exchange.
Yes if only your accounts are hacked it can be your fault that you may have used a weak password or have low security.

I believe in both cases responsibility is up to you because no one force you to keep your bitcoins on any exchange right? Why do you want to trust any third party with your coins? Store in offline or at least somewhere safe?
If an exchange is hacked or something's happen still it is your fault, not anyone.

I would like to say that you should keep your coins safe not on an exchange or any other place or at least use layers-of-security such as 2fa, email, etc.

Well, the security of your account or wallet is surely your responsibility. If you are talking about exchanges, you have to keep your password safe and hard to predict, but it is not advisable that you hold any coins in exchanges because the exchange itself could be hacked anytime.
As for wallets, you need to be careful about your private keys and keep them in a secured place.

Most of the cases the responsibility is on the owner. You have to secure your asset ,keys and pass. If its hacked then there is some flaws in your security. So whatever happen the full responsibilities goes to the owner.
But in some cases when you register in a centralized exchange then sometimes they also do some mistakes. If a data bridge happen on that exchange then they have to take the responsibility. In in this kind of cases mass portion got effected and most of the time if the exchange is reputated they took all the responsibility.

Account hacking is indeed a 'nightmare' for everyone, This unsettling act by irresponsible parties is very detrimental for every victim.
Remember, the safety of your account is in your hands, so you are fully responsible if something happens to your account.
Make a case like this as the most valuable lesson, so that it does not happen again in the future.
It's really a nightmare and maybe it will be a very bad day if our assets return to zero and the person responsible for this story is still us, as you say, we hold and manage our assets, if lost, of course the responsibility will be on us, no one else to we blame. Some very special cases may be the responsibility of exchanges when they leak information but very rarely, in short, we need to be vigilant and seriously manage our assets in crypto when this is an area where crime is constantly increasing.

Of course, it's primarily the cheater's fault, but it's also the account owner's fault, because he didn't have enough protection for his account or just showed someone his credentials to login.

Some hack attacks cannot be prevented especially when funds are held on exchange wallet. This is why investors are frequently entreated not to store funds on exchange wallets for very long time unless the holder intends to trade with them. Withdraw the funds to either your Legder Nano S or software wallet where security is maximum because the holder owns the access to the login details.

I often warn that never keep your coins for too long on the exchange because they are vulnerable to hacking, but if that happens I think the responsibility is the company, but if you can prove that you are one of the users and victims of hacking.
