For me it's safe, the thing is that how to back it up?
And maybe that's how hackers were able to get everything from your friend, did he write down his mnemonic phrase?
So it's really up to the individual safe practice, just don't safe it in the same machine, write it down just like old fashion, never put it online like in a cloud or something.
Topic: Mnemonic is no longer safe? - page 4. (Read 585 times)
As far as I use Non-Custodial Wallet, I think Mnemonic Phrase is very safe, I've never experienced any hacking either. BTW I use Trust Wallet. Coin98 has high credibility, they are on par with other Non-Custodial Wallets such as Trust Wallet, imToken and others. So I don't think the problem is coming from there.
I don't know for sure why your friend's wallet got hacked, but I think it has something to do with interacting with a fraudulent smart contract. Your friend may admit that she's never done that, but who knows?
For this problem I only have a suggestion not to use the wallet anymore, or to make sure that your friend's wallet is not connected to a project, you can check it at https://revoke.cash/, hope it helps.
I have heard about this Revoke.Cash but I don't know how safe the website is, have you used this yourself? Is it safe for any wallet users to connect to? Seed phrases are safer offline, maybe his friend copied the Seed phrase online, in mail or in PDF, I've seen people keeping their seed phrases in the most stupid places.

It's safe, I haven't used through this site but I'm still using a similar one. https://app.unrekt.net/
It helps us to completely disconnect as well as cancel any fiduciary rights to the websites we have ever connected to the wallet. I think this is also the cause that his friend had, leading to the above hack.
I am also using C98 wallet and I have never had any problem from it, C98 is a wallet as well as a non-custodial wallet developed by coin98 team from Vietnam. OP you can contact the c98 team directly to clarify the problem they are very enthusiastic about customer support, maybe you will find the reason you are looking for.
Just want to share, I can't prove that mnemonic safe or not. I'm not an expert for things like that.
My friend just got hacked, lost about 300-400 USD.
He wonder how it happened, make some probably the device was infiltrated by malware, if yes. All his key is gone(all), so there's no only 1.
He was generated Mnemonic by coin98. Never connected to MetaMask or some things like login to connected, never.

Usually i think that Mnemoic phrases are very safe. I don't really know the numbers but as far as i know it is almost impossible to brute force the because there are millions of possible solutions obviously. So i would guess the reason why your friend was hacked was not the mnemonic phrase but the way he created it or how he saved or stored it. Usually you are connected to the internet when you are creating your mnemonic phrase no matter if you are creating it for metamask or for a desktop wallet. So if your PC is already infected with a malware or something when you are doing that they can already get the phrase there.
Its not that Mnemonic is no longer safe. Everything is as safe as the weakest link. If his device was compromised or someone had access to it without his knowledge than even 100% buletproof solution will not work. My guess is that mnemonic did not fail. your friend failed to protect it.

The seed phrase is still pretty much safe AFAIK.
Maybe your friend made and error unknowingly to him or maybe his device was infected by malware.
And again your should have chosen a popular and more safe wallet rather than going for an unknown wallet IMO.

I never heard of Coin98 Wallet, and upon checking it out, it seems there is no source code available. Its availability is also only on Chrome.
Mnemonic code generation by a popular and trusted wallet is fine. The seed generation process is secure as it widely can be viewed by those who understand. Until this time, A popular wallet user is safe from any mnemonic code vulnerability that I'm aware of.
The possibility of your friend getting hacked due to personal security issues is more likely than a standard process of mnemonic code generation and potential collision. So without knowing your friend's digital hygiene, it is hard to seek the actual reason for it getting hacked.

- In my current experience, I don't see any problem with this. Why did @OP have such a bad experience with this? Because for me it's safe as
long as you keep your mnemonic in the right and safe place. Just make sure that when you use it, don't ever forget to log out of the platform
wallet you'll be using so that hackers can't access you.
