The way that our tokens are being transferred, sell, and recieved are safe and secured because cryptocurrency are using blockchain technology which is, i believe the safest innovation for security and protection of our money. The only way that a hacker or a group of it may be succeasful is when they completely manipulated or tricked the individuals or a group by means of copying its site, wallet site, and any way that can obtain your private key. So mostly, the fault is in the individuals holding its private key.

From the point of safety, i could say that new coins are more secure than previous ones, because they use and update them with advanced technology, but for sure there is a risk for us as our coins can be stolen by hackers, but there is a risk anywhere and anything. High risk high profit

Maybe bitcoin already learned a lot from that tragedy.Upgrading and developing much better securities must be done.And since everyday, technology improves, this security measures must be also updated so that rhey cant be bypass anymore by this hackers.
I dont know about any hacker strikes taking place recently. And the japan issue was old. So i think there is not much threat
Hackers are creating problems all over the world. Cryptocurrency would be safe, but you have to take extra measures.
No, how can you take them so easily? They are much sharp than us. Just see, bitcoins are safe and secure we accept this fact but that is their security? Only one key, a private key that must be kept secret. And what if this key would be known to someone else, all of your privacies are open to everyone. Hackers are only trying to get that private key that isn’t much hard for them to retrieve.

If you don't trade your coins frequently then it is much better to store it in a hardware wallet than in the exchange because there is always a possibility of it being hacked. We have seen various hacks of exchanges in the past and it resulted to people losing their coins and one of the biggest is the Mt. Gox hack and this is the period where most people realize the importance of storing your coins in your own wallet not in the exchanges. Also, do not just download anything because there is a possibility of it having a virus that might steal your coins. If possible separate your computer using/trading cryptocurrencies and for other things you do online.
