Topic: my ether wallet can be hacked??/ (Read 444 times)
My ether wallet is very safe unless someone got access to your private key. Mostly MEW advices that you use your keystore and password during transactions and not directly use your private key. Your private key can be used mostly when you have no other option.

Ethereum transaction is very fast so for me its safe to store your tokens in my MEW instead of just let it sit on my trading exchange account. I will only transfer my tokens when I'm ready to sell it and I don't think that you need to wait that long.
Yes, its very safe as long as you do the proper way on how to protect your account. I would deal on that deeper, I think it been preached hundred of times already.
So its up to us, how responsible we are in protecting our MEW accounts. If your account has been hacked or leaked and you lost everything. There's no one to blame but yourself.

Hi dude. I am also using myetherwallet from the begining. Still now i don't have any prob with that. Its safe and secured. As per my knowledge without leaking your private key there is no option to hack you wallet. So whenever before using private key you should check the correct website link and you should not click anyother scam link. Be aware of that.
If the private key know others for sure they will open your account. So better if you keep it safe in document that no one knows except you. You need to secure your private key to thr dafe place like documents that have password so no one can knows about the private key or password. For sure other people keep their private key to the safe place because they have a lot of tokrns their and if they are not they lose their all tokens.
Yea, it can be hacked , its worth being worried about. But it can be prevented, how?
Keep your private key safe, beware of the scam than may request for it especially on slack and your mail address, if you reveal it once, your account is at risk. A lot of account was hacked that November / December. It is never a sweet experience. Be vigilant

Every wallet can be hacked but mostly because the owner doesn't care about their wallet. They never fix their attitude about how to protect their wallet. Such as, they click link into MEW with out check the address correctly, use another device or network to open their wallet, last one is their data really stolen from their pc/ laptop. This is modern technology and everything could happen just do what is necessary to protect your wallet. Good luck with you.
Because we're now in the era in everything is possible and hackers always think ahead of us. So the least we can do here is being cautious in everything we do and don't use private keys instead use metamask for logging in MEW. We're all responsible and be mindful in everything.
Metamask is really a good option for those who may not have the funds to purchase a good cold storage, at least that way, even MEW can be connected without having to login with private key.
Yah, just follow the secure option given by the wallets. Just follow them option provided and activate in your mobile and desktop as per instruction given. Main thing to look at when ever you log into the wallet URL, make sure you log into the correct url. I have an experience in loosing bitcoin when logging into a fake URL. Try book marking the wallet URL. Follow myetherwallet's instruction. Your money will be very safe.

myetherwallet of course can be stolen by way of phishing but therefore when we want to login in the wallet we have better login using json file that we have to be more secure.
My friends' friend had just lost her 40 eth, stolen from her wallet. I don't know how it happened, but it enlighten me that we need to ensure the safety and security of our wallet and secrecy. And above all, to not be greedy..
What kind of wallet?
If you are afraid, transfer the money to another one.
Check the operating system of your computer with different anti-virus software.
I do not see any problems at all.

Can anti virus kill malware?
Yes, dont continue using the wallet which you are afraid about because it can risk all of your token there.
Myetherwallet and other online wallet is very high risk can be hacked by profesional hacker. Always becareful.
If you are afraid to be hack then put all your coins/tokens on a hard wallet there I am sure its secured and no one will hack you unless you lost your wallet or gave your private key unintentionally.
I think that's going to happen, because my cousin hacked on Him. he does not know why that hack. Maybe it's possible that he knows the private key so it happened. Just remember you guy's take care. thanks.

yes, MEW could have been hacked and everything on the internet could be hacked, we have to be careful that it does not happen.
make sure your data is safe, you do not share data like private key to others, and make sure your computer is also safe from viruses
As long as you are smart and you do not leave yourself vulnerable, it would be hard to get to you. It is just like a normal world where you leave your doors opened or use a very weak lock, and then expect a thief not to try to break in. What is important is once you are already aware of the environment that you are in, and then you should always keep yourself abased with all the necessary things to consider being able to stay secured. make sure your data is safe, you do not share data like private key to others, and make sure your computer is also safe from viruses

Your ether wallet can only be hack if you click some fishing which has a similarity on mew, but if you are cautious for sure your not going to be hack. Just the only thing I know which is really safe was MEW and shafeshift.io
Just make sure the URL of the site correct before you provide your login details to the site then you're safe otherwise you may leak out your login details to hackers. The suggestion is you bookmark the correct URL and after that, you use the same URL to access your account. Also, try to install good original antivirus software on your PC to protect from various attacks.
No I don't think it can be hacked, yes it can be hacked but very little chance for that. If you run it offline, then you are more safe but your computer can be hacked then as well 
This post makes no sense.
First you say you can't get hacked online and the you say you can get hacked.
Then you say running an offline wallet is safe and you can't get hacked and then you say you can get hacked as well.
Very confusing post.
It doesn't matter if offline PC gets hacked because there is no internet connection.

I think it's not a hack if you do not say your wallet to someone else and all the information you need to get in the background so that when something happens on your account you have a evidence to tell the support.
I have a few friends, their wallets are attacked by hackers. They do not secure 2FA for their accounts. I think you should buy a personal computer for storing electronic wallets. And buy the license of anti-virus software. Do not visit the bad sites, scams. I have always been cautious of my account, because my family lives on the business of the crypto market.
