Yes, wallet security is very important, not just online wallet types, all types of wallets have an interest in extra security. With so many crimes out there like hacking etc, then your online wallet should be equipped with high security if you want security in your money, even online wallets at ordinary banks have also increased security, this has happened to me as an online wallet user on every bank and it's definitely on the cryptocurrency wallet.

Yeah, I think it's important wallet security. Especially in today's digital world, it is possible to say that security factor is a leading factor if we think that there are many theft, hacking and malicious intentions. In addition, we need to show extra security and extra precautions in our wallet services.

yes of course the security of the online wallet that you have is very important and you have to use security that is very sophisticated because hackers also attack several exchange places and some wallets so that you can better provide very strong security.

You're right.  I also adhere to the principle of not storing the key on the same device where the wallet is located!

This question if I remember was asked multiple times long time ago in this forum that security is definitely an important aspect of every wallet and everybody in cryptoworld must know this it was like a bank that holds our money and never allowed anyone to steal our coins thats why security is always at priority when selecting and using wallets.

Of course the security of your wallet is very important, because our income will go into the wallet so we have to maintain the confidentiality of our wallet so that things don't happen that we don't want. At present there are many irresponsible individuals who will look for ways to get more benefits including breaking into our wallets, so we are expected to be more careful in investing and to maintain the confidentiality of our wallets so that our income is safe.

I once read for security wallet,
this is just for discussion how to secure the wallet. I do not think there is a security system and there will be no theft in the wallet.

If you choose your wallet or phone software, you need to be extra careful! Remember that bitcoins are stored inside your device. If your computer or phone breaks down, your bitcoin is gone too! Thieves can also take your bitcoin if it gets access. Consider the following tips to avoid losses:

Perform regular backups regularly
Save the backup on another device like in flash or another computer.
Use the encryption feature
With encryption, each transaction requires a login with a password. This prevents thieves who manage to gain access to your computer.
Do not forget the password
Losing a password equals losing your money! Wallet does not provide a password forgot feature.

Do you guys have a better idea to avoid theft in the wallet?

Of course wallet security is very important because the earnings that you've been get goes in your wallet so better if the security of your wallet is very strong so that many theft can't get your wallet.

There is no single person on earth who will find himself or herself very happy when. His or her wallet is hacked. You can never be happy to lose some precious money of your own. Wallet security is much important.

If we don't choose a safe wallet from beginning we start joining the crypto currency, maybe it's the wrong thing. Because it is vulnerable to hackers who really intend to hack your wallet. Minimum you have an authenticator or pin in your wallet because save and only you can access it.

Always make good use of that 2FA, extremely useful, and be sure to link your email with an email account that you are mostly sure of, simple ways to avoid getting robbed, be sure to secure your account, never leave it open, and don't use your account on public connections, as hackers can easily trace you and breach your wallet.
Yeah even though it's just a simple thing, but it will really help to secure your account, as long as I use 2fa I have never experienced
theft or hacking in my wallet. so I highly recommend 2fa, and don't use the same password for e-mail and wallet accounts..

My advise for securing your wallet is to not use it over public wifis especially on hotels and airports. You are very prone to informational theft and intrusions. Backing up your accesses and keys are very important too. I've heard countless of people i know that lost their access and forgot their passwords.

Wallet security plays a vital role when you store your coins in it. You invested time, effort and money to be able to gain these coins so you better be sure that the wallet you are using is secure and that you will also be very careful in securing your password or passkeys to be able to access your coins

I always have back ups for my wallets,tokens were stored in my wallet and private keys must be kept safely.Hackers were everywhere so I don't give them chances to get whats mine.
I also check my wallet to make sure that my tokens were always there.
It is really important to secure our wallets and private keys in a safe place.

yes! ofcourse! wallet security is very important. like any other means to secure your funds. even just a bit more security is a great help in preventing anyone from accessing your  funds. that is if you prefer to just have an easy access to your wallet but later got it stolen due to poor security. lol

Securing your wallet should be your first priority, it is very easy to think that you are never going to get hacked and that you're never going to lose your money but it isn't until people get hacked when they realize that the risks of holding cryptocurrencies are real, so do not wait until that happens, you need to be proactive and protect your wallet from the very beginning so you do not lose your coins to a greedy hacker that targets you.

Yup, it is a highly important factor to keep your funds safe. Now many wallets have made 2FA mandatory to just make sure everybody follows at least one security measures for their funds. Otherwise, few of my known ones used to just have a password, that to even a common password. Even 2FA is quite secure even if you keep your password weak unless your friend is a foe. Actually one has to be active and careful in every aspect, many of us unknowingly give information online, through various platforms.

yea of course it is very important since all of your transaction history and all of your money is at your wallet. so you must not simply give your wallet to someone because they might hack you.
