my friend got hacked yesterday

Well, thing is, you have your own bank (unless you use online wallets, which I suggest you don't), so you have a control of your own security. This means that it can potentially be very safe, but if you're not careful you aren't safe at all.

Well, nothing is completely safe Wink
His friend was probably using blockchain, and a hacker hacked him for some reason.
But seriously, make a paper wallet, hide it inside your bank, that's as safe as it gets :/

I don't know what it means to be safe or not, nothing bad will happen to you by spending btc if that's what you mean.

Bitcoin is open source. Nobody controls it, its decentralized. With some precaution like making a paper wallet it is safe enough to use BTC

Yes it's very safe! Just never use an online wallet, use Ubuntu for all your desktop wallets. Try to avoid using Windows if at all possible. You can load Ubuntu on any computer using a cd or dvd

It's like a bag full of cash. It is as safe as your security. Leave your bag lying around and it will likely be taken, put it in a safe deposit box and it will almost certainly not be taken.

As long as your computer is clean out of malware and you have backups of your wallet then your BTC are safe

Bitcoin itself is very safe, all bitcoin wealth is secured by cryptography.
But you will have to be careful about the keys to those Bitcoins, the security of those depends on you (e.g. just like the passwords to your mail accounts).
