It is possible the wallet hacking and I have heard a lot of cases like this. It is important to keep all your important data very secured where no one has access.
besides choosing a safe wallet we also have to be careful in using it because hacking can come from anywhere including the web that we visit. so you are a person who can keep yourself from hacking even though sometimes we experience bad luck

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.
Attitude to the security of your wallet should be serious at the very beginning of use.  Before registering your wallet, observe:
 Enter the password using the on-screen keyboard.
 Write down everything on paper, and be careful not to lose this record.
 Do not store important information on your computer.
 If possible, use a hardware wallet (Ledger Nano S, TREZOR)
 Do it right away so you won't regret it later.

Everything is possible. Wallet hacking, exchange hacking, mobile phone, laptop hacking. If you want to be safe, buy a Ledger wallet, and stay calm. I prefer to hold my coins on my MEW. You just need keep your private key safe and never share it.

I've never experienced my wallet hacked, but seeing some of the experiences my friends experienced, they lost a lot of their eth because of the hacked wallet, and they suggested using metamask to avoid it, so I did the advice they did

Yes if you do not keep your wallet safenthen it can be hacked to keep your wallet safe is by not giving your private key to others then always double checked the site that you are entering because some of the site are pishing so be careful in entering a website always double checked it. Just used metamask if you are using mew.

wallet hacking is only possible if there are vulnerabilities which they can use to get access to your wallet/wallet information. If you are careful and use your wallet as a cold wallet, then the chance is really small.

Yes, wallets can be hacked, but I've never had anything like it. I found out on some websites that someone's wallet had been hacked. Hackers can find another way to get their wallets, often via phishing.
Hackers will always find a way to have an access to your wallet and this is what is considered as hacked anyway. The only thing is that no hacker can brute force any wallet to enter it or do some other possible technical means to get in without using some other means in which you fall for as a person and then making your account or wallet becoming vulnerable to your funds being scooped.

For instance, the usage of malware to steal your information, the usage of phishing attack to get the hard to reach details and so many more, which is why it is always necessary to pay attention to everything you do in this space so you do not end up becoming a victim.

Now much is possible, but such a wallet as myetherwallet, I think it is possible, except to get access by pulling information from the owner of the wallet
In any case, the information may be available to someone else. If your wallet is being hacked, the first step is to blame yourself, because there were some actions that caused the loss of your secret data.

Of course it's possible, hackers can hack everything. They hack bitcoin exchanges, miners, online stores. The question is, what are they interested in? Hackers are not interested in wallets that store a pair of bitcoins. They need Internet services that store a large number of keys or bitcoins.

At present, wallet hack is a common concern. Especially in cryptocurrency wallet hack. Most of the users' wallet is in their unconsciousness. Because they are sharing their private key or entering a fishing site. Of course, private key should be kept secure so that hackers can not hack easily. The work of hacking is the work of some professional programmer. If there is any weak side of the wallet, then the programmer will take advantage of those hacks to find those weak points.

The probability of the hacking of wallet is caused by human errors, for those people who left their accounts and wallets unsecured with walls and other specific data security, It also common that most people are aware that they are giving their information to others like their private keys and other important details which maybe hacked by those users, the best thing to do is to secure your account in the very respective way.

Wallet hacking is possible when the owner of the wallet makes the mistake of not keeping his wallet private key secure. If the key to  the wallet is kept in such away that hackers have access to them, then ones wallet can be hacked. Keeping money in exchanges is also a risk. It is important to take  proper precautionary measures.
Yes ,hacking is possible here because there are sites that are copied and your able to access on that with your private key then it goes to hacking moneys. Everything is on risk so make sure to be smart in every site we access in able to avoid that.

Actually there are a lot of ways for hackers to get access into your wallet. They always find a way, that is why crypto users and investors must be careful on what they do, what they share, and what they click. Just one wrong moves, all the important details you have will be taken away from you.
You must first limit the actions on a computer on the network. It is best to have a separate device for using your cryptocurrency wallets, which would have limited access to the Internet.
It is also important not to connect infected devices to this computer, otherwise you risk losing money. Security is a whole science)

Yes it is possible. some you put the wallet private for filling some forms. some time the hackers are do that by using your email. so the best way is use a hardware wallet.
It usually happens because the careless owner of the wallet itself and also because he not fully understood what is private key and public address. Without knowing the private key of one's wallet, it's impossible for the wallet to be hacked unless it connected to an exchange.

Just look at this forum topics about the hacking of wallets. I you will probably be surprised but of those there are plenty, as breaking a purse and the loss of all their savings is one of the most relevant topics.

Wallets are hacked every now and then so this is not a new question or a new problem in cryptocurrency world .The wallet holder however sometimes makes mistakes that lead to search hacking incidences.If you are careful with your privacy issues then you should not worry so much about hacking.But if you are fond of clicking every phishing email or links then all your funds can be stolen in just a second.
