This wallet is certainly very good and easy to use, but if you go to a phishing site, you will immediately lose access to your wallet, if you save the access files on your computer, I have just this situation. After that, I use meta-mask, he does not provide the keys to phishing sites.

I want to create new wallet using MyEtherWallet(dot)com, is it recommended wallet and easy to use?

I think everyone here uses MEW as the main wallet. very easy and simple, but you can choose other options such as hardware if you want to save the altcoin for a long time.

I have been using Myetherwallet for a long time and I'm completely happy with it, I have not had problems with using this purse yet. But I read several articles about cases of loss of all coins that were on purses because of the fact that the owners of purses were on fishing sites.

you can create a wallet on myetherwallet whenever you want, it is recommended because it is the actual wallet for ethereum and any other ethereum based tokens. you can also use metamask if you want to.

When you use MEW you have to be wary of phishing attacks. So don't click any link that leads to MEW, and always be sure to type MEW web address manually! If you click link on some website that leads to MEW it can lead to malicious website that looks the same as MEW website and when you fill in private key, ill intended person can steal your ETH right out of your wallet. I recommend to use Metamask combined with MEW. That is safer method because you won't have to type in your private key or upload json file manually.

It is a wallet service that I use intensively for about 6 months. I personally did not have a problem and did not have a complaint, but I saw some of the forum users complain about this service. Of course, I do not think it is a reliable service, but it is also the best in the sector. Of course this choice varies from user to user, but I think it is quite handy and easy. I also think that there is enough security for the online wallet service, but there are users who have serious problems and complaints. For that reason I think that you should determine your own preference by doing research.

Yes. But if you are storing a good amount of Currencies, you should get a hardware wallet. There have been many instances where people where hacked using Phishing pages.

MEW is very easy to use, it's just that you don't forget and keep a good private key as a password to enter your wallet. For eth wallet, I suggest you use MEW.
Only all the data, private key and password should be stored in a safe place and do not enter them to third-party and suspicious sites.

I've been using MyEtherWallet, and until now it's very safe, but if you're still in doubt, there's another alternative, MetaMask, many of which say metamask is safer than myetherwallet, metamask works like add-ons in your browser
Myetherwallet is really very safest wallet for token or altcoin. I using it and I didn't faced any problem.

There is no wallet which is SECURED one.

All the wallets are one and the same and having the same principle of working. They get unlocked with either pass phrase, private keys and keystone file. I guess if you loose them then you loose access to the wallet. If you get phished from external source then you can get hacked easily.

Now these all wallets are online and prone to such things. They are secure if you are keeping everything safe.

Hardware could be the thing you should checkout. - Research it.
To an extent, you're right about online wallets, MEW however also offers an offline version so as long as you don't eventually hook it up to the internet, you won't have to bother much about getting hacked. Also advanced features like UTC file, MetaMask, etc are put in place to provide extra security measures and they sum up why the user base have remained on the increase.

The safest measure however remains to never turn an online wallet or exchange into your bank.

You have to careful to keep safe your privet key safe and use the right site always cause you can find too many fake site here and there.You can bookmark the right site it helps to protect enter you to the wrong site.

Many people use MyEtherWallet service to access their wallet and it is reliable, but they need to use it safely, observing the precautionary rules. I know a lot of people who used this service and lost their money, but it was not because of MyEtherWallet, but because they lost Private Key from their wallets, they went to phishing sites, and not to the official website MyEtherWallet, someone gave their Private Key to strangers. And for many other reasons people lost their money, so use this service carefully, take care of Private Key, check the computer regularly for viruses and update the virus databases, then everything will be fine.

Myetherwallet is the best wallet for holding the Ethereum and other ERC-20 tokens. It's the best you have got and it's highly secured and you just need to have the Id and the private key with yourself in a safe and private place. Be careful and do not share your Id and password with anyone else or else your Ethereum coins or other tokens can be stolen. I personally use it and also i recommend to every beginner and I don't think any other wallet can match the security and comfort of Myetherwallet.

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.

You should use this security, so it will be less hacker attacks, while many users do not know how to secure so that hackers attack and get all the coins.
