Yes you should be very scared of hackers because there are a lot of hackers active on bitcointalk and if they know you have a lot of bitcoin they will try everything to get those bitcoins so you might get hacked some day.

I am hearing a lot of users' complaint about having a problem transferring their BTC, Nowadays I am not selling it because I am "Hodling" it for future. But I am a bit of scared now because all this news about the people's BTC being hacked.

What should I do If My wallet or BTC gets hacked?

It is better  if you use a hands on wallet. There are plenty of good wallets out there. It is better to be safe than sorry. Do not get cheap on wallets as you u are storing a big amount. And they are not that expensive also.

You should damn shaking if you don't protect your precious bitcoins. You of all people should know that hackers are active and are always active these days; preying over unprotected wallets and exchanges. Just invest on an offline wallet or cold storage.

I feel like it's worth worrying about if you keep your bitcoins on hot wallets. If we are talking about a cold wallet, then without the physical pressing of the  button it is impossible to steal your bitcoins. Personally, I use the hardware wallet Ledger Blue.
The more money stored in your wallet , the higher security standard you have to set. That's the rules , you'll automatically do it for yourself to swipe the insecure feeling up.
Own an offline and hardware wallet are necessary without third party , you know the next level about that. Don't be scared but be more careful.

If you stick to a hardware wallet you should be safe, even if you have a big amount of bitcoins. As far as I know, no one has violated the safety of a ledger until now...

No you should not be scared because your bitcoin is secured and safe. There's a chance only to being hacked if you trust others. The easy way to keep it is to remember or check it everyday and trust yourself only.

Don't be scared, for me regardless if you have a lot or just few, these Bitcoins are from your hard work, time and effort so it should be automatic that we put its security as a priority. Always be on your toes, don't just answer emails, click links or anything, always beware of those sites that you are going into. Another important thing is, secure a hardware wallet, and be careful of the people whom you will give your trust to. All these should be enough for you to ensure your Bitcoin's safety.

That problems is always facing now by lots of people... Hackers and scammer are dominating now the social media and probably here also...  As for now it is very hard to secure or Bitcoin because even our true account can easily  penetrate by this kind of people who has a mentality like this...  It scared us because we didn't know what will happen in the future...  Holding money in wallet is good but make sure that you used tha most safest Electronic wallet....  Just be aware of scam and hackers...

It is difficult to protect it for 100% but the hardware wallet may be helpful. And I advise you not to tell anybody, including your friends and relatives that you have a lot of bitcoins. The less people know about your money, the better)

Don't visit any suspicious website, get additional security like use hardware wallet or Paper wallet. Essentially you have to be careful in acting and always improve security.

Yes, you should be scared since the eye of hackers are in your account. I think you should be careful enough in all informations that you will provide in order to protect your wallet from any threats  hacking.
Aside the company itis your duty to be careful in all actions that you will made.
Being cautious and being alert is a good thing. We live in a world where almost everything is done online. If you're not careful about the information you provide on the internet, it might someday have a negative impact on you. If we have a lot of BTC, I guess we better keep quiet. Never tell anyone orally or online. Hackers won't be after you if he doesn't know you have lots of coins. Hackers don't work carelessly, they work systematically.

well, thats a bit scary on your side. but i think getting hacked depends on what softwares you put into your computer. bitcoin technology is secured it just depends on the user if he/she is giving information on the hackers.

The very definition of it was it was hacked, thus, you cant do anything about it. all that HArd earned BTC are all going to waste by being hacked by another. Once hacked, it will be transferred to his own personal wallet to be converted to FIAT to be used in his own benefits. To my own experience, some BTC of mine was hacked and due to this I was prompt to withdraw it into FIat every time the price would go up.

For me yes. You should be scared of hackers if you have a lot of bitcoin because if the hackers hacks your account or your wallet they can get your money because they are trained in hacking operations. I think if you have a lot of bitcoin you need to be careful to care your bitcoins and to become safe your money for future rather.

If you have a lot of BTC, you should be scared of hackers, because basically we play online and it's very vulnerable to hacking. Therefore, you should be wary of hack attacks. Prevention is better than fixing. So in anticipation use wallet hardware to protect the bitcoin you have. Really, whatever the price of wallet hardware is not a problem if it's for more secure.

Yes you should, because the number one mistake people make is their inability to hold and protect their wallet private key which is the wallet seed, if you have many accounts there is a possibility that you might forget some of its password and if you are saving they key on your smart phone. to be safe and secured is to be secret about your wallet seed and password as much as possible.
