Does anyone know how to turn on 2FA on MEW?

Till now I have never seen any 2fa in MEW. I think the site you are looking is a fake site so don't send any tokens to it.
When you google it there are many phishing websites about the MEW, so be careful choosing the exact address of MEW.

i think my etherwallet is safe because so far i use, i am not having a problem and i can send the tokens to the exchanges. but i am worried about the gas for the fee because i think it will increase soon. as long as we save our private keys into safe place, i think we don't have to afraid that our account is hijacked by someone else.

you can't. MEW doesn't offer that.
If you're on a site that says you can it is a scam !!

It is safe. I have been using it for a while now and never had any problem. Make sure you keep your private key safe and be careful with the fake websites that look like them. Grin

I have several times found phishing sites similar to myetherwallet go into my email. they have an alibi like your account will be freeze if you do not login to their link because they only need your private key to get in your wallet. so keep careful dude. keep safe your private key.

There is a lot of user of myetherwallet but don’t heard any news about myetherwallet for not being safe. “MyEtherWallet.com does not hold your keys for you. We cannot access accounts, recover keys, reset passwords, nor reverse transactions. Protect your keys & always check that you are on correct URL.

I was always wondering what could happen if myetherwallet.com website get hacked... so it's better to have the coins on a desktop wallet, instead of a web wallet?
It's a question because I a little bit afraid of web based wallets

yes, its safe and one of the most trusted etherium wallets today, most users are on a bounty are preferd using myetherwallet.com compared to other etherium wallet because mew suporta all erc20 based token and also etherium therefore this is the best wallet if your on to bounty hunting. although theres a risk because its a web based and can be prone to hackers.

Yeah its safe, but you should use local wallet. Its always better to store your coins in your own network. You never know whats going on other networks or yo dont know how secure they are!

the official wallet must be secure and the site with myetherwallet.com address is official and safe for eth users. it's just that today many phishing attacks happen and people are deceived because the site address and site look just like myetherwallet.

I trust, but be cautious. Do not keep your investments in a wallet.

If the website got hacked and there is a possibility for the amount in the wallet to be revealed. I can say that was better to have your coin on the desktop wallet, But as far as i know that will not easy to hacked themew wallet, many people are still save their amount in there and the team always update the security of the forum.

There is nothing to hack on MEW website, they don't keep your keys.

Only risk is if you go to a fake MEW website.

Just like others said. Myetherwallet is safe unless you landed on a fake or phising website. For your assurance here is the link https://www.myetherwallet.com/. Always check the URL and look for MYETHERWALLET LLC [US] Certificate.

Be safe and secure
