Of course, I believe that Bitcoin is very safe. There are several scammers, and that is very bad. But you have just to be careful. And trust only the people you know and not every person.

It's safe till you are not a rich guy with millions on your wallets and everybody trying to steal your money in different scam ways, so it's safe, yes  Grin

Yes but even if your rich then people wouldn't be able to figure out that you have all your money in bitcoin.
Bitcoin is pretty safe but still hackable i think but not just by any script kiddie so thats okay. I would guess bitcoin is as safe or even more safe as putting your money in the bank so you have nothing to worry about. Only benefit of bank is your insured up till a certain amount of money here and bitcoin not really.

The bitcoin is very safe but keep in mind that it has some risks if you are working with a online wallet.
I do not recommend you to do this because you can than get hacked or something else can happen that will let you lose bitcoins.

The bitcoin is far from safe because there are allot of peopel who are rid of their coins because of the bad security of the wallets no one wallet is trustable to the max.
I never got an problem by using online wallet even i'm not use extra security for protect my wallet but for more safe i suggest you to use 2fa.

i have bad experience with online wallet like blockchain.io, someone hack my btc-e account, then poloniex, bittrex and i lost arround 2btc.
now im not using any online walet except using 2fa for 2nd security level

Yes the bitcoin is safe but it depends on how you are using it and compared about how you are speaking about it.
Its save to invest in it but it stays a investment, if you are talking about the fact of wallets, its that you should not use a online wallet.

using proper passphrases to secure wallet files is one of the most important things a lot people here aren't talking about. even if a wallet file of you get stolen, then the hacker can't do anything with it beside trying to brute force it.

There is no problem with the bitcoin wallet, you will only be subject to hacking when you are not careful with your personal information or computer is infected with malware that will steal all your data. But in general if you will take all the necessary measures to safeguard your money you will be safe at all.

Is it safe to keep all of my assets in Bitcoins? And how Department for Combating Economic Crimes, can affect my account?  What permissions they need , to freeze all my money ?

I'm not sure what you mean by "safe" , If you mean storing so no one really finds out about them then yes most likely you can do that . But if you mean selling all and buy BTC instead then... no one can be sure about that , price can decrease with time and can increase .. It all depends on many factors such Miners wanting to continue mining (If they see profit) , Supply-demand etc ...
Bitcoin cannot be frozen , and if you hide them I don't see how they will find out about them honestly .

Just want to hide some money. And I dont see, how I can get Bitcoins anonymously.


First of all , you shouldn't use exchanges (at least not Centralized one) that asks you for ID , passport and other personal information's .
You can search for someone to trade with on "Currency exchange" section (depends what are the payment methods you have) and that's it , who can know what the transaction was for ? unlike buying from an exchange .
Or you can use LocalBitcoins and try to find someone to meet him face to face (in your country/city) and you buy BTC against cash.

Not sure it would be easy to find the person or website that is willing to sell me a Bitcoin in the amount of more than $ 600,000. And, who also want to do it anonymously.


Bitcoins is not safe at all because i know that there are so many people who got rid by their coins because you cant trust any wallet. and that is not a good thing for the bitcoin if you cant trust wallets.

It's as safe as your creditcard IMO, if you don't expose your computer to viruses or trojans or show the private keys to someone else then it is safe, as an investment it depends, but surely a high-risk money investment.
I think bitcoin quite safe if you are good at storing your bitcoin. You can give a lot of authentication in order to get high security.
the problem was the risk involved with investing in bitcoin? you know that prices could fall very quickly?

Well, as long as you use bitcoin and other blockchain technologies correctly, protecting your data with the required measures, this will not bring you major problems.

Yes, i agree with you. Bitcoins is really safe and it's depend on how you use on bitcoin. If you download something suspicious on your computer that can hack your bitcoins, it become unsafe. but if you don't bitcoin is safe, very safe.

bitcoins on mobile is where it's at.. Well. until I somehow lose my phone.

Credit cards aint safe. How could you say that?

Once someone stole it then they can use it in shopping. They will just swipe that card and you sign it. They dont look for any ID's to verify the owner of it. You cant even close your account on Sunday's due to banks are closed.

I'm sure bitcoin is very safe, many people using bitcoin and no one complain about bitcoin and no issue about it. The problem in bitcoin is there are many hackers out there and that's make bitcoin become unsafe.

Yeah, bitcoin very safe if you only save on the wallet and wait for prices to rise, and not using bitcoin for anything, including investments. but you must save in a good wallet to avoid hackers.
yeah bitcoin is really very safest than other currency and i also save my bitcoin in wallet for rise its price and not spend or use it in anywhere because i am sure that price will be rise up sooner.

thats true, in my opinion bitcoins will always be really safe because it is impossible to hack it if you hold it in a cold storage right now

It all depends on how you carry them. If you hold the private key then I would say you are safe from losing your wallet.
I would suggest investing in a hardware wallet if you have fear in someone online hacking into you bitcoin wallet whether it be a web wallet or a client on your pc.
That way you know they are safely secured.
That is safe in terms of keeping your pin/password privately but i do not think it will safe to store a lot of money in bitcoin wallet because you will take high risk on that we do not have any assurance if there something bad happen we will recover our bitcoin.
You have no choice but to trust bitcoin on that, you have to take the risk because you are keeping your money in the bitcoin wallet because you are investing, that is why we must ensure that what we keep is the amount we can afford to lose because bad thing can also happen and bitcoin might be worthless in the future.
I know allot o things and what i do know is that the bitcoin is far from safe because there are so many people getting rid of their bitcoins and you all know that they cant be trace.

I think that Bitcoin is safe, I have never had any problems with it but because of the fact that it is online people find it not as safe.
I know that people got some problems with it but if you know what you are doing you should be alright.
