so helpful with me. thank you
To keep our bitcoin and our token safe from hackers is always keeping safe our private key. Never share it to others people. Beside that, right now many ways hackers to steal our coin in our wallet, they sometimes sending a malware to steal our data. Never visit suspicious link and its much better if we using hardwallet
All my bitcoin wallet have 2FA because ot is very helpful because I experienced before someone who are trying to access my wallet brcause of 2FA they did not open it. Your right better if your bitcoin wallet is different to social media account to not easy hack.
Agree with what you say. I also use 2FA for my bitcoin wallet.2FA really helps maintain the security of our assets, because 2FA they will have difficulty in hacking our assets. Maintaining the security of our assets is important. Your rights are better if your bitcoin wallet is different from social media accounts, names, etc. so that assets are not easily hacked, that also for our own security.
In fact, you will really help the most basic compliance with simple rules. Not trusting your keys to anyone and keeping them in a safe place is very important. Never neglect it, hackers come unexpectedly.
Great tips. I don't think anyone should even be posting about their crypto on social media because this sets yourself up to be a target. Social media is a very common tool for hackers to attempt to steal from you. It's better to stay humble anyways, the only time I see people posting about investments on social media it's to try and brag about a profit.
- We must have our own way to keep our Bitcoin safe. The account we use must have a unique password, and not easily guessed.
- Do not equate account passwords associated with Bitcoin with other accounts such as social media, because it is vulnerable to hack, let alone the followers of its social media a lot.
- Use two-factor or 2FD authentication. Additional security layers are easy to apply. Quite a few apps like Google Authenticator as a 2FD installation provider. In essence, it works as a second security layer after the password. When you've entered a keyword into your account, the system will request a two-factor authentication code. The six-digit code does not need to be memorized because it changes every 30 seconds.
- And one more, do not trust everyone. Suppose we provide information about our Bitcoin account to our Mother, it is not impossible that our mother could just tell it to someone else. With the spread of such information will increase the potential for breaking.

Thanks for some tips about keeping bitcoin from hackers. That is a big help for us, holding our bitcoin. Also my tip is do not paste your private key to any sites, and if your bitcoin is in the exchange site, i suggest that your password will be unique with numbers, capital letters, etc.
Such informations are given by sites and applications once you want to use their services. And I think almost everyone knew it already. But also remember that our safety does not only depends on how we protect it but also by the wallet we used. So better choose a better wallet!

Yes you are right this is the way to keep our tokens and avoid the hackers but additional thing to keep our token safe. Why don't try the offline wallet or we called also hardware wallet that is look a like flash drive that you are storing your token in offline and hackers doesn't locate or hack you bitcoin because it is not connect on the Internet that can access by hacker.
Thanks for this information because most people really fall prey to the attacks of these hackers and this drags the image of crypto in the mud. However i also share this same opinion that the best way to keep your bitcoin safe from any third party attackers is to keep your cryptocurrency on a hardware wallet. Stay safe guys!
The best tips for keeping bitcoin from been hacked is to use google 2FA on all your exchange wallets and ensure to bookmark all sites that leads you to your favorite crypto sites.
keep the account as simple as the one who knows you and God are the main one and don't tell other people if you have a bitcoin, surely that person will know about bitcoin and take everything like breaking into a bank
Hey my suggestion is simply make an Electrum wallet, make sure you do not share your password, private key and seed with anyone, write it down somewhere for your rememberance. Also time to time clean your machines using anti virus tools, to make sure you do not have virus that can steal your coins. Lastly but the most important one, do not use your wallet to transact on a public wifi.
Good advice, but I would add-don't store your Bitcoin etc on exchanges or wallets on your PC, Tablet etc, use strong passwords-not the same one you use for email, social media etc and lastly use a hard wallet such as Trezor etc. I assume your anti virus and anti malware are up to date and your os is fully patched.
Hardware wallets are by far the safest way to store your coins and while I think the price of one of those wallets is fair most people in the forum cannot really afford one so they need to deal with the problem of how to secure their coins when they cannot afford one of those wallets, and the best way to do that is to install your own wallet in your computer in an operating system that cannot be easily compromised. Keep bitcoin - this is a very important moment for investment. I use a cold wallet to store and do not store passwords in the computer, they are written in my notebook. I think it's pretty safe.
Store in a safe place, which is cold storage or desktop wallet, then the private key is not stored on the computer, but save separately, for example in a notebook or manually. Always have to update antivirus.
I think that to keep btc from hackers it is necessary to store it in a hard wallet. To my mind, it is necessary to use it instead of the paper wallet because it is much more reliable according to the reviews of my friends who used it

Thats right, don't use the same password for each account you have, because someone can hack a site and can get your account email and password there, and they have a kind of checker to see which accounts are suitable for the email and password you have, this is simple tips to avoid hacking
I always keep my password and private key in my security inbox. I always use two factor authentication and one time password (OTP) . Google verification and mobile phone verification.
Those information you've given mate is very helpful. Ont of the reason why many people got scam or hacked is because their private keys and passwords are their linked into their social media accounts which can easily be opened of some hackers. Offline string of wallet seeds are the best i think to do.
Trezor is the best way to keep safe the bitcoin in wallet and hackers can not hack the trezor at any way. Trezor using holders are totally satisfied for keeping many different coins which are supported to the trezor.
I believe that everyone have their own security options and continuously you search for new options for your coins. I have my own ways to keep safe my coins and wallets. First of all i am keeping my coins in several places; in my bitcoin hardware wallet, in exchanges, and in my betting accounts. I believe the safest way use the hardware wallet but if you haven't got one the best way to keep your coins using some good exchanges. Because in exchanges you have google autenticator options with sms message and with email passwords at the same time. So choose one good exchange and make that triple security.
All the tips in this topic are great and very informative, should be compulsory for new crypto users to read and apply it. I would add one more tip:
Don't use closed source wallets, and especially never store large amounts of money in closed source wallets
I really agree on this. Users should have the control of their private key. There is no need for third trusted party like exchanges. This is why users shouLD be discourage to store big amount of money on their exchanges account because they don't have the full control of their own funds. After trading, one must transfer the funds on an open source wallet which gives security and transparency like what I also use called Hodler wallet. Don't use closed source wallets, and especially never store large amounts of money in closed source wallets
