I want to create new wallet using MyEtherWallet(dot)com, is it recommended wallet and easy to use?
Well, A lot of crypto users prefer MyEtherWallet in terms of its security and robustness. MEW is flexible meaning to say that you can open and manage your accounts in different ways, this makes MEW a very good and the most secure Wallet for me out on the internet.
In most of the cases, the hacks are a result of the user clicking on phishing links. So if you are careful about the URL, it may be possible for you to secure your tokens. I regard MEW as one of the best freely available wallets right now.
Using HOLA VPN when it was hacked lead to hack without phishing. Who knows what vpn will be hacked when you will use it? MEW is good but without own privacy, any wallet can be stolen. Caution and care when using any wallets are the main in the crypto
MetaMask works just fine for me.
yes, it is recommended for storing ECR20 tokens and it easy to use, but be careful from cloning site that looks like myetherwallet just bookmark the real myetherwallet so that you will not get hack.

For safe using this wallet, the main rule doesn't use the private key in any cases. There are many use cases without private. Use metamask, use keyfile. I personally use offline wallet MyCrypto - project from MEW team. The last pass stealing was through HOLA VPN and private key using
of course it's very good you use to receive tokens or coins. but if you ask about security, of course depends on how you use it. if you use your UTC file to log in anywhere, it's very dangerous, especially if you use IDEX, try using metamask to log in using UTC files so that your wallet remains safe.
Based on my experience right now I would recommend you to create the wallet. That is one of the wallets that are trusted right now, besides the issues that happened before, this would still be the best wallet that I will use.
Yes ,of course my ether wallet is too secured wallet. it is also depend us how we can use it. But more over l want to say that we can store our coins without hagitation.
I use this wallet without problems and, in my opinion, it is a good wallet for storing coins.
it is better not to use a MyEtherWallet, it is constantly hacked, and ether and altcoins are being withdrawn. It is better not to spare money, and buy a portable wallet for $ 100. And you will be safe
In a world where greed and fear reign, there is no place for safety, remember this! The same can be said about the world in which we live, security is achieved through constant battles, so it's up to you how to understand this correctly.
yes myetherwallet is one of the best wallet for eth and token erc20 is easy to use and versatile you just have to take some small precautions for safety, like use it in conjunction with metamask or with a ledger and possibly make offline transactions
I use Myetherwallet to send token and ethereum with a private key, and I think it's very safe as long as we can make sure that the site we open is correct, and until now I haven't had a problem.
yes it is very secure, if you use carefully, keep your private key safe.and beware of scamers. never share your private key to any one. thats why in MyEtherwallet has always two keys,one for public and one for private. so its safe. don't worry.
I have been using the MyEtherWallet for a long time, and there have never been any problems with this wallet. However, I don't recommend storing a large amount of money on it, for such purposes, use a cold wallet.
I have the same. I have been using it for more than a year and there have never been any problems, all cases of hacking are directly related to inattention and negligence of users.
Time to buy Ledger nano or Trezor and you will be always safe. Even if your computer is infected and I can say that about 80% of computers are infected, so be clever and invest into your safety! It costs only 100USD!

I am storing a pretty large amount of money for me, but it is safe and no matter what happens. As long as we stay alert and secure it carefully, we will never see a hacker. MEW is one of the safest wallets I have ever used, even more secure than the exchange.

If you use a clean computer without viruses and you will really visite myetherwallet.com website, then you should be safe. But it is online web-wallet, there is always a small risk that your Ethers or tokens can be stolen.Jump to:
