If you mean password hacking, then yes, it is possible if you use simple password. Simply your password will be found by brute force attack.

It's very posible when we not carefull of our data, and also we need to more carefully when click website or input privat key to the website, sometimes cheater or hacker make pishing website to hack our wallet.
Now, mobile wallets are most often hacked, as I believe. It is now the most defenseless wallets. I do not know how to make them safe

Wallet hacking can happen if you visit phishing websites, unlock your wallet on a phishing site, download malwares to your computer.

Your wallet and your assets in it is safe, if you can be careful by not revealing your security details.
Those who by mistake have clicked on phishing sites, have had their wallet compromised and lost their funds.
You can just generate a wallet you share with no one or any project, where you have your valuable tokens.

In the digital world, it is very likely that there will be a wallet hack. This is because of the negligence of the wallet owner and also the hands of ignorant hacker accounts that use their intelligence to do evil. Stay alert and don't be easy to enter on sites that are not clear. Because there are already many people who are victims of hackers' accounts, it is very detrimental and also troubling.

Hacking is a major treat on the internet. Web wallets are very vulnerable and susceptible to hacking no matter how secure your wallet may seem. One way to minimize this treat is to avoid sharing your passphrase online or with friends. You can decide to save your assets in different wallets in order not to lose all your investment in cases of any possible hack.

Wallets can be hacked and much more possible when one exposed his private keys, got phished or storage system hacked. Apart from that and keep assets in offline storage and making use of other multi-factor authentications, I think one will be less vulnerable.

Actually, everything is possible and developments for security were still developing possible solutions to atleast lessen the possibility of wallet hacking. What we can do for now is to do safety precautions that are available like 2fa verification and the like. We should also secure our wallet security keys.

Just like an account where one's fiat currencies are kept so also is wallet where digital assets or cryptocurrencies of crypto lovers are kept. Can the wallet be vulnerable to hacking and if possible how can that happen? If you have experienced it before, I want to learn from your experience.
wallet hacking is very possible when you didn't protect your account or mishandled your keys. Just like hack into your credit card or bank account is possible, so always play safe

Fear is always there if we store assets in the wallet. But we can also anticipate this from ourselves as an example of using 2FA, don't just depend on the security of the wallet that we have

Yes. It is possible.But depends on which kind of wallets you are using in. If it's a hardware wallets then their is a very low chance that someone hack your wallet if they don't have it physically. The next on is the wallets with private key or keystore file. It's also safe but most of the time people lose control of their wallets using this method. Cause hackers use a simple trick called phishing. And if you are not aware of things then you could be a victim. And the next one hardware wallets I don't like this kind of wallets there is always chance that it could be hacked. So the key of not getting hacked is in your hand if you are careful about things you are hard to hacked.

There are several type of wallets exist for now. Web wallet, desktop wallet, mobile wallet, hardware wallet like trezor or ledger and also cold wallet. Web wallet usually hacked because of phising sites. But I think all kind of wallets and devices that connected to internet are possible to be hacked. So we can only stay alert and aware while connected to the internet.

Through Phishing it is possible, and maybe installing malicious applications or malware can affect your security for your wallet address to be stolen. What you need to do is to be careful on approving permission to an dapp.
I think manually WALLET hacking is pretty difficult. In everyday we are browsing thousand of websites and i think we should used internet security before any wallet install like many times we use wallet for bounty/airdrop token which is too much risky wallet.

As long we careful with phising link, i think wallet hard to hack. The vulnerable about wallet is on exchanger wallet, but i am believe exchanger always improve the security and using cold wallet. As far i know, as long we keep our private key or seed safe, i dont think hackers can stole our coin and token

its possible that your wallet could be hack because hacker now was too professional to do this but its not always happening,so to prevent it make sure that you put your important things in one place such as private key etc.
