People have their preferences but one of my personal preferences is holding my own private keys. When you hold your own keys it means you don't have to worry about some exchange getting hacked. Here is an example of a trading platform that allows you to trade from exchange to exchange while still holding your private keys.

That's right, you're afraid ! So you will be more focused on all the action! But keeping the coins anyway is not recommended on the exchangers, get yourself a 2 cool wallet and keep your coins there. If you trade daily, you need to allocate the amount that you allocate to this direction on the exchanger.

Yes im afraid of scammers because yours files or integration account is verry important so be careful in any transacrioin we do to not be able to scam the any person that kept


I myself have experienced being hacked. My wallet got hacked by an evil and heartless creature and took all my money from a bounty campaign. It was supposed to be my first time to be paid for joining signature and facebook campaigns. Just 3 hours after it was transferred to my personal wallet its gone. Now, i will be extra careful with my wallet to avoid reoccurrence. I am not just scared of scammers and hackers, i hate them.
It seems to me that you need to be more careful in choosing a site. Where you store your personal data or your purses. Apparently, the defense was weak, if some hacker got access to them.

Any exchange may close down tomorrow. For good. And neither 2FA, nor long password will ever help you have your money back. It's like you keep your money in your neighbour's wallet. He may be a nice guy actually, but he also may leave for ever every day with all you have.

Hey guys.Im a newbie on crypto world.However i started doing my first money 1 year ago using e personal method.However i have improved and now i have like 4-5k worth of alt which i keep on exchange wallets.Are they safe?Or should i get anther wallet?

And yes,I have 100 % secured with email,number ,long password and 2FA but im still afraid

Any point of centralization is prone to attack, so better use your own wallet
If you really concern about security and want to hodl for long time, use paper wallet and safe it in your cabinet

Mostly hackers now and phishing site's are rampant they disguise look a like a  MEW wallet,but when you look closely there is differrent in the letters,so we must be carefull thats why we afraid to those hackers or scamers because we do not know there true capabilities on how they hack our coin even without knowing our private key,even we put a 2FA is not  an assurance that our coins is secure unles we buy a ledger nano s for storing our coins.
It is not only you who is afraid of hackers, in fact every single person out of is having this fear in his heart and mind and that will never end.

The only thing which can help us is to study as much as we can regarding the hacking techniques like what all are the possible ways using which hackers can harm you or can take away your money. After that, you need to take certain precautionary measures to stay away from them.

Keeping money on exchange is risky. You should buy a hardware wallet to do it. Hacking and spamming is very common in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies if you are not secure enough.

I think your money will be safer if kept in your personal wallet, and do not worry too much. you just have to secure your wallet, do not torture yourself with a thought that, afraid of losing.

You don't have to be afraid, just make sure you upload funds into exchanges which you require to trade and store coins in your own wallets. As you are good with 2FA so you'll be fine.

2FA is one of the way to not easily hack our account, I have a friend experience hack her account but she recover it fast then after that she use now the 2FA so the hacker now hard to hack her account.

Nobody doesn't want to have their accounts hacked by someone. Of course, you can somehow prevent that to happen if we will just be very careful with our accounts and be vigilant at all times.

Everyone is afraid to be hacked and to be scammed. I think one of the reasons behind this is, they want to see the outcome of their hardwork.

Hacker and the scammer are only normal in this kind of job or in this kind of world because hackers and scammers have one only goals. They steal your earnings or profit just to have it. They do anything just to steal your money. And there are ways how to  prevent it. For hackers make sure that your password is really strong consist of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers you may use a symbol too if you want and don't click for the untrastable link. For the scammer. Just do research in your buyer or seller

The rule # 1 of preventing your coins from scammers is not to trust any links having something to do with your MEW/other wallets immediately. Checking who the sender is should be every crypto enthusiast's daily routine.

You shouldnt be afraid  because if you have a nice antvirus+ malwarebytes your computer would be secured,if you still have doubts with your computer's security you should get some hardwallet because these wallets will secure your coins even if your computer has been infected,there will no chance that these malware would steal your private keys because hardwallets has built in private keys.
Don't be afraid as long as no one know your private key, there's nothing can happen. I suggest to you to avoid them is by telling to anyone your personal information especially when your in crypto world, also to not be get hack its better if you have wallet to put your coin there, but choose wallet wisely.
