Wallets can be hacked that's why I always used hardware wallet also people get hacked when they enter their private key into site that ain't safe
But hardware wallets cost money, as to me that usual purse is no less safe than a hardware purse, if handled correctly

First, you can lose your wallet by catching some virus or browser plugin, it will gain access to your funds and transfer them to hacker's address. Another "chance" for you is to follow some bad link and face "phishing" resource. These two cases are the most frequent I think.
You are talking about phishing. Hacking and phishing are not the same thing. Technically, hacking many wallets is impossible without the use of super devices. Such devices are owned by states or large corporations and, as a rule, are adapted for special tasks.

Speak almost the safety of crypto acceptances various period. And with self-confidence at 99.99% I buoy add that bitcoin is hopeless to cracking. Add assume 't recognise how right this is, a quantum pc buoy just breakage much a safety process. On the other hand as far-away as I recognise, thither are 2 much computers. Single in U.s., the additional in Russian federation. Possibly thither are in additional nation, on the other hand the media get not talked almost them.

I was a victim of hack so I have no doubt from experience that hacking of wallet is not only possible but it is happening . Folks need to be more careful with their wallets
there are many people who experience what you experience but I am quite grateful because until now I have never experienced my wallet being hacked.
and I am indeed a person who is very careful when using my wallet so that maybe that is the reason that I have never experienced hacking.

There were cases of course hacked,and even hackers managed not just to break,but straight the whole exchange to break,or to replace the protocols and links to the wallets of the same Ethereum wallet,and just stole from many people money,as long as there is no perfect protection,the only thing you can most secure yourself,correct actions,that's all perhaps

Aloof similar an accounting where single 's order acceptances are unbroken so furthermore is purse where digital assets property or cryptocurrencies of crypto buffs are unbroken. Buoy the billford be sensitive to hacking and whether potential how buoy that occur? Whether you get practised it earlier, I wish to study from your feel.

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.

Basically no, but if a project creates a plaform to particularly hack a wallet, for example if you mistakenly import your private key in a wrong project just like the Ethereum classic vision before, they run through a self made blockchain that intended to scam people through their site that needs to import private keys which I find already misleading from just the beginning.
in any case, if the attacker received your secret keys, it is the same as losing your money. I am interested in a completely different question. When you still have not a public key, but a private key, is it possible to get to your assets with it?

I think that's not possible, your wallet will lose all its assets if you lose private key or someone steals private key, the percentage of hacked is very low

vulnerable, but I don't understand how wallet hackers work, some say they get access through phishing links and some people say that they plant malware on our computers to get access and I can only trust it so I really keep my computer from exposed to malware that can threaten the privacy of my wallet

I think that anything, any device that is connected to the Internet, is subject to hacking. Therefore, thinking about your security, first of all, keep in your mind whether hackers can get to your data.

 This totally depends on the type of wallets you use and the level of awareness you have on wallets.
  
  • Web Wallet
  • Exchange Wallet
  • Desktop Wallet
  • Hardware Wallet
 
  There are cases where even hardware wallet can be compromised when you put your seeds around. This totally depends on the awareness you have on how different types of wallets works and knowledge on how to secure it.
Hardware wallet is very transparent also paper wallet if it's not using most of the people. Exchange Wallet is relatively risk more than other 3 wallets. Exchange hacking is now big hype, because a lot of hacked just in this year. so we are little bit disappointed to use.

of course, wallet hacking is very possible.
Any type of wallet is very possible to hack, but they have a different level of security, and what until now I believe to be the safest wallet is wallet hardware such as Ledger Nano S, TREZOR, KeepKey or others.

Wallets can be hacked in any number of ways, from phishing (fake websites), keyloggers on computers, to malware. I thus recommend that users consider a hardware wallet for security.

It's true about that, there are many ways you can take the money you have. It's time to store your assets not in one wallet. it is very high risk to produce losses.
