Crypto is not universal but it will be so soon so now it can't be an idol from all its sides and hacking takes place here. They are possible if you don't have enough level of security.

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.


none of which cannot be hacked, related to the internet including crypto wallet. whatever type of wallet is
I think you should know about that. every risk is always there and every wallet has security, you must search and read it as a guide for your education. but don't worry too much, because almost all of us here use mew as a wallet for altcoin.

very likely because there are many cases of hacking purses, especially in MEW
but most cases occur due to the negligence of the wallet user such as sharing his personal keys or something like that so far I still use mew as a wallet for all the altcoins that I have and everything is safe.

Everything is possible to be hack if you do wrong moves without any safe to your device or protection or anti virus high chance
 Better to have more useful software that can protect your wallet from any hacker that you want to hack yout account.

Your private key can be stolen if you don't keep it safe enough.

Well, I would say depending on what. After all, if we are talking about an incomprehensible, unknown hardware wallet. It means that the risks certainly increase 100 times. But if you take a good, well-known wallets. I think the risk is minimal. But still there.

Yes, of course. If you are too careless of your wallet, then you will be one of the victims of hacking. Many other sites today are a product of phishing/ fishing. So it is highly recommended to be more extra careful and be a keen observer when visiting a site. And do not ever provide your private key.

Cryptocurrency can not be hacked or can not be cracked, atleast that never happened from the past and never happened to me, so, I am 100% sure about cryptocurrency wallets. I put my crypto in myetherwallet and I haven`t lost anything yet.

I think that the most secure wallet that has a private key. If you do not store it on your computer and do not get your mistake on phishing then hack it is almost impossible !

As we see it is possible. But I will not say everything. Good, proven wallets are very reliable. And you can safely keep your cryptocurrency on them. And what about low-quality, incomprehensible. Here the conclusion itself asks.

During my first investment, team behind the ICO told everyone that 1500 ETH were stollen because their account was hacked. I was so upset unless expirienced users had not told me that there is no way to hack it and all the money were simply stollen. I learn from my mistakes and help you to learn on mine.

everything is hackable because programmers can make errors, however cold storage wallet like ledger nano s and Trezor are very hard to hack so I think they are 99% safe.

It is very possible that wallet can be hacked , the my etherwallet one of the provider of wallet for tokens and coins , have already given warnings on how to prevent and protect your wallet from those phising sites that you accidentally go in and your information about your wallet can be caught and get hacked, so our wallet will have a chance to be hacked if you are careful of it .

Hacking wallets this is possible. But to avoid this, you should not keep your wallets open. Do not anyone not to blow your private key. Although Mosheyniki may already go into your wallet. But I think if you use these remedies, then it will be much more difficult for you to enter your wallet.

It is more difficult than being hacked by the exchanges themselves where they have their private keys! If you cryptograph your wallet and if possible do not use much the pc that owns this wallet, you would be reducing considerably! Caring for a wallet is important, but avoid talking about your deals here in the world is a big step.

yes definitely, wallet hacking is more than possible. When you loose guard of your private keys and mnemonic phrarses, hackers will find a way to get into your wallet and move your funds.

I remind you that phishing / stealing private keys is not hacking, but simply fraud, theft. This does not concern the security issues of the wallets, it is your personal responsibility. And no one is responsible except for you.

In this world everything has vulnerability , so everything is possible for us to do , but here I don't mean that we can hack any wallet easily .
Just like as you a key and lock  ( branded ) that is safe and no one can unlock , but still there are chances that anyone can try to make lots of combination to crack the key , so there remains chances that he can get probably the exact configuration and design of the key to unlock the lock .
Here same things works with private key and public key , As a private key is combinations of letters and digits so there is no 999.999% chances that anyone can make combination of private key for a particular address .
But if you are with the third party/non-offical wallet then I don't think you can get success easily to remain secure Because if anyone will hack your email then he can hack everything that what you have with your email .

Theoretically, people can fly using their mind only. In fact, there is none of the factical proves for the flying people. The same situation is in cryptocurrency area. Theoretically, you can hack the wallet, but the chance is extremely low and required resourses are enormous.
