Topic: Re bitcoin can be hacked - page 4. (Read 1007 times)
With poor regolamentation in term of cryptocurrency, hackers and scammers are more stimolated to rob bitcoins. They kinda risk nothing with super high profit, what cant they ask more.
But a lot of people are now being hacked becuase of the forks, and this is not the fault of the hackers, this is because people are so anxius about getting forked coins for free, or even those altcoin airdrops too.
There is a lot of people who lost a huge amount of money because they exported their ethereum private key to one of those erc20 airdrops.
They just lost everything, and i heard about a guy who lost more than 1000 ethereums because he wanted to claim some Ethereum Blue.
This was a really sad story, but he really diserved this because it was his fault, and obviously because he was so greedy.

If you store your coins in a safe decentralized wallet, no one can access and hack them
Yes if u share your password or recovry phrase or private key with friends.
it's not really hacking if you are sharing your information. 
Everybody knows why all those hackers are stoling bitcoins, and there is no way that they could hack you if you have a good wallet like the trezor one, i have been using this for some time and it is the best wallet that i have ever used.
And now that bitcoin is pretty high, all those hackers are in a hurry to steal as much bitcoins as they can, because they know that bitcoin is like gold right now, and would never stop going up.
But one of the biggest robberies that bitcoin had, were about that "Online wallet" that was giving bitcoin gold to those who were going to put their bitcoin private key in there.
This is why it is never recommended to have your funds in an online wallet, because all your funds can suddenly dissapear.

Are you dumb or you are just newbie in here?
We all know that our bitcoins can be easily hacked, and most of us who have a larger amount of bitcoins have purchased trezor's or nano ledger's wallets, that is the most safest way to protect your bitcoins because you can setup a pin, and there is no way that a hacker can pass through that PIN.
And no, all those wallets that are on the internet are not safe, they all can be easily hacked if you have a rat on your computer, that is why it is always recommended to invest some money to purchase an offline wallet, because there is no way that you can lose your money by having your bitcoins in there.

There's a lot of intelligent individuals especially hackers now a days. For me, I think bitcoin assures the security of their users so they come up of having paper wallet etc. So in our part maybe we should think a strongest password and make sure to always logout and dont share personal info:) to prevent this kind of event.
That's basic internet security tips. I learned those things a long, long time ago and my children learned them in grade school. I don't think there are many people who don't have some kind of knowledge when it comes to these basics, but actually applying the knowledge is a completely different story. Most of the time it just comes down to not going to sketchy sites, have 2FA enabled and don't use online wallets if you really want to have dedicated security for your wallet. Cold storage will always beat any password or security system that you try to implant.
