- 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 your information

Ways to keep your BTC safe from scums:
1. 2fa to all your exchanges
2. donot keep more than what you can lose on exchange
3. keep all btcs in paper wallet
Do you even read the TS's post?

4. never try to tell your btc amount on this forum.
This is also pointless. Because you can easily check someone's amount of Bitcoin through Block Explorer, it's easy to track the amount.

if you give or store private keys or seed phrases in an insecure place, anyone can hack the wallet
Thank you Mr. Obvious.

Absolutely correct advice, stick to them and all carefully recheck and then you will not be afraid of hackers:)
Yet, hackers are smarter than you. They have lot of ways to hack your account.

Maybe an additional one from me, to use the Hardware wallet, the Nano ledger is very suitable to keep your assets from hackers, just you who keep the object properly.
Hackers are always looking for loopholes to steal bitcoin in someone else's wallet. So protection must be from ourselves. This method might protect your account from hacker attacks:
1. Use the Password generator
2. Enable authentication Two factors
3. Secure your login ID

2 fa authentication is the way in order to keep our bitcoin safe from hackers. There are many ways in order to keep our wallet safe and there are also many ways for hackers in order to get the attentions of the wallet owners. One thing I could add is we must read carefully the website if that is the real one not a phising one in order not to get hack.

Though bitcoin promises to provide the safest transactions among all the crypto currencies or even among all the investment as its transactions does not involve any third party seizure so the transaction between two is confidential and no third person has the right to see the transaction between two and then secondly it’s transaction provides user anonymity so it is the safest among all but still hackers are very smart so for keeping your bitcoins safe, never share your keys and passwords to anyone.

Make a bitcoin account password as complicated as possible, but it's easy to remember, keep it well where we consider it to be safe enough, and no one ever knows the bitcoin account password we have. If we can do this correctly, then most likely the bitcoin that we have will avoid hackers.

As all have suggested 2FA is the most popular way to keep your Bitcoins with an added security feature.Also always check for https in the Url bar when entering your credentials in any Crypto website.Stay safe from phishing.

Without a doubt if we are using an online wallet 2FA gives an extra layer of security and I haven't see anywhere that it can be break easily by hackers which is the reason most crypto exchanges provide us the same option an a significant method to follow

Best way to keep your bitcoin out of hackers is to follow the right and accepted methods and majority of people who lost there bitcoins and investments have failed to do that most of the time and hackers always take advantages from those opportunities so below are some of the points that I have come across to secure bitcoin wallet from hackers,

1. It is always better If you can use a hardware wallet because unlike online wallets hackers can never hack into offline wallets and this method is much secure if you are a long term investor or you hodl token in long term

2. Always create a backup of your wallet because will help full to recover information in any case you do a mistake or an failure of your computer

3. Secure the wallet by using a strong password and encrypting it and that will be really help to protect the wallet

4. If you have an online wallet please use a two factor authentication and it will definitely ad an extra layer of security to your wallet

5. Always keep your private keys in a safer manner and never use your email accounts or other online data stores to back up your private keys in any case

Above are the once that I have come across so far and there must be more and a bitcoin holder should always stay alert with new information to secure there tokens because no one can find our bitcoins when something happens unlike in the real world when we lost fiat money so better to protect in the first place than loosing
