The two points above is more related to wallet security than bitcoin as the topic implies. Wallet can be used to receive some other coins aside bitcoin. I was expecting to see how bitcoin can be more anonymous. The topic will be more perfect as threat and vulnerability in crypto wallet.

Threats and vulnerabilities in Bitcoin security
Since money threats are always close by, I'm not surprised that Bitcoin, a digital currency, also has a lot of security threats. I'll explain how to avoid these threats in the following paragraphs.

1.Private Key Management
The protected management of private keys, which are used to access and transfer funds, is a challenge for Bitcoin security. Bitcoins may be lost if private keys are misplaced, taken, or compromised. Individuals are advised to use secure procedures for backing up their private keys and protecting them as well. Security can be improved with hardware wallets, private offline storage options, and strong control over passwords.
2.Exchange Vulnerabilities
Despite being used as an avenue for trading bitcoins, cryptocurrency exchanges are susceptible to attacks from hackers. User funds may be lost as a result of breaches.  The solution: Exchanges should put strong security measures in place, such as cold storage for individual funds, regular security examinations, and powerful authentication protocols. Users ought to select trading platforms with a solid reputation for security.
3.Regulatory and Legal Concerns
Problem: The regulatory environment in which Bitcoin operates is complicated. Modifications to regulations and legal ambiguities may have an effect on adoption and security. Taking on the problem: Cooperating with authorities, encouraging ethical behavior, and abiding by the law can all contribute to making Bitcoin more secure. Collaboration among business leaders, government officials, and law enforcers can also improve security procedures.

And many more are still available.
