Being tech savvy will help any bitcoin user. Its most commonly a fault with general public users who have no idea how to secure their bitcoin, let alone their machines.
Password protect your wallet. Or save your coins on some trusted exchanger site.
Also, do not disable your antivirus, just update it and be safer.
I said this about antivirus as many users doing it "because it slows down their CPU" or whatever reason is.
Just don't. Stay protected. I know that sometime virus or trojan is undetected by antivirus, but it's more chances to not get infected by keeping antivirus up and running updates every day. Also, Malwarebytes is a good protection, can work with antivirus without conflict.

most crypto users at this point are still a bit tech savvy. that makes it more difficult and less worth it for the trojan builders.
A new report from security firm Symantec claims the number of Trojan malware programs targeting bitcoin users has fallen in the past year. they suggest that since the number of users of crypto is still low it is not a good target!
it is a good news but i thought cryptocurrency was getting popular so as a result it will attract evil people too but seems not!
