Honestly yes I still use MEW despite the allegations they had with all the hacking. And probably because I don’t store all my coins there and use it sometimes, but so far I haven’t had any problems with the site itself. And I stay away from it if there are news about hacking or something too.

MEW was the first wallet that  I used when I started to learn about crypto so far it's the easiest and the most convenient  to utilize if your a noobs in this industry. Simply, be watchful of a phishing attacks and bookmark their site.

Yes, I will still use myetherewallet because it is a very good wallet and I am sure they will fix all problems soon because the wallet is safe and secure for all erc20 related token. Even with all you said, I believe they will sort the issue soonest as the wallet is a reputable one and very good for storing token but if you are scared, you can spread the token into some other wallet as long as it is safe.

Because since the beginning I know cryptocurrency, I tried Myetherwallet first as my wallet to store my token assets. I never had a problem since the first time I used, everything is fine and working perfectly. If you want your wallet safer, try using Metamask to protect your wallet from hackers and make sure to save your private key and Json file in the safest place...

I nevertheless do now not understand why human beings nevertheless use the MEW or why corporations and developers still use it for bounties. It isn't secure. And with the pressure of starting one you may assume it ought to be secured. but it isn't always. it's miles the closing erc pockets i will use or advocate to absolutely everyone. Coinomi is strong however no longer many use it.

i think most of hacked issue on MEW is because of the users itself
i use MEW from the beginning to store my ethereum and ethereum tokens i have no big issue with MEW
because i keep my private key and json file in the safest place
I agree with you, it all depends on the users themselves, when they keep the private key well it will be safe just like you do.

Current MEW is still the best e-wallet used by investors as well as bounty members. MEW is ideal for storing ERC-20 Token as it supports almost all Token using Ethererum technology. Although MEW has repeatedly been harassed by hackers, there have not been any cases of cryptos. So you can be assured of store cryptos at MEW.

Wallet security is really a cause for concern, MEW is the mostly widely used wallet,the challenge with it is that it requires you to interact with sites directly sometimes your private keys.

Using MEW offline version is still safe I guess.
If you use it properly MEW is a very good wallet.

For me, MEW is the still best wallet for ERC-20 Tokens, as for me it still safe to store all of the tokens there. We must be careful on our private keys and any other way to access our accounts. As many hackers are getting sophisticated on getting into our accounts.

but I always wear this wallet because the average bounty program is wearing MY ETHER purse, while we can keep the private key, and json, it's safer not to get hacked

I don't hold anything in my ethereum address except few bucks worth ethereum and I sell my bounty rewards the very first moment they are listed on exchange, but for storing larger amount of ethereum or tokens I would use hardware wallets.
I don't know, but hackers have found hole in extension not in wallet.

You can try MetaMask, MyCrypto or Trust Wallet, they are both newer and better than MEW. MyCrypto has the same developer as MEW, but it is an improved version, newer, better, very easy to use, it has the same interface and usage as MEW. I like it most, you should try it

Another day, another hack.  Basically My Ether Wallet was hacked via the chrome extension hola.  At this point it isn't known how many users have been affected or how many tokens have been lost.

https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2018/07/10/mew-hack-hola/

So my question to you is will you still use MEW?  Do you think it is their responsibility what happened?  The hack that happened a couple months ago was bad enough, but now another one?  I find it hard to believe that their credibility will be salvaged after this.

I don’t use MyEtherwallet anymore. It seemed for me more reasonable to change my wallet on some another some months before. And have done it. I don’t regret about it at all. Metamask is good coin also.

Yes, when you compared to other wallets MEW is the best wallet because i find there is some security involved in it. So as long as if you don't share private keys with others your coins will be in safe hands, so, i hope it is good to use MEW.

recognized or not.
MyEther wallet users still occupy the most in use to save ERC20 tokens in the CRYPTO world
although a few months ago there was hacking but I still believe MEW is still safe to use because MEW always make security improvements for the convenience of its users
