Has any online wallet been hacked before?

[Daveyoung182 389]

Good morning mate,it is not the wallet itself that is been hack but the user of the wallet.This type of things happen when people give their informations to scammers or hackers.

[fuer44 1083]

I have never heard of it, especially in the wallet that I often use to store my assets. I gave the example of myetherwallet, an online wallet for storing altcoin. over the years I have used it, there has never been any theft.

[Ridam 7455]

Yes many cases have been shown regarding the wallet being hacked and stolen. The ususal hacking is done through phishing to the innocent people and even big companies btc were hacked like binance 

[Armcannon 858]

I never hot hacked before.because I don't share my username and password to others.also I use different password when I sign up on different sites.and I provide my 2fa verification for additional security.

I want to know if there is any online wallet that been compromised before. So, that we can know maybe online wallets is actually better than exchanges for safe keeping Crypto.

what do you mean with online wallet? there are online wallet where you keep you private keys (like metamask) and there are also online custodial wallet where you are just giving them your money, like exchanges

 

anyway online wallet where you keep the private keys can be hacked but you will not lose anything because they don't keep track of your private key, so the security is up to you.

custodial online wallets and exchanges can be hacked and in this case you will lose your money

I only heared and read only exchanger have been hacked just like binance last year and also bit stamp they are also considered as wallet becouse you can also store youre crypto there.

[miskyming 1588]

yes there is a wallet that compromised I don't what it was wallet and once you update it your coins will be gone.. the devs said hackers hacked their server so hackers created a update file..  many people losing money.

Yeah there is that is why yobit will always warn us if we log in our account in the other IP address that if our account has been hack then yobit can not help us about that. Be careful and wisely in keeping our wallet.

[skbo 16]

I suppose the safest wallet is yobit. no one be able to fracture it as the guarantee is accordingly close-fitting in it, other than that I don't appreciate which wallet is the best. on yobit the asking price is extremely cheap.

I don't know any limited wallet but I comprehend a quantity of persons who they exhibit been hacked before in their wallet, I portend hackers are next the accounts in that wallet not the wallet itself, in online wallets you be supposed to activate every one of the safety skin texture are obtainable in that wallet

[Ms.o 3322]

Online wallet or anything that are related in online is possible in hacking as online world are full of scammers. That's why me,i personally suggest using cold walletsor an offline wallet coz its much safer.

[Ssking93 51]

I personally advise cool wallets to make an offline wallet quote safer than it is. Online hacking or anything related to online is possible because of the scammer full in the online world

[Vivek1997 437]

I'm active in crypto world from last 1 year but still there i didn't heard about hacking of any wallet. But there might something happened like same before, so i don't know about that but yes in last year there isn't happened and case like this. Also wallets have strong security so i guess hacking won't be easy.

[Cimmy_revenger 42]

This why , I'am always afraid if hold or safe my asset cryptocurrency in online wallet.

I recommended you , using hardware wallet if want to safe your asset.

[Suhannewaz 245]

Since its development, the security issue has been a crucial issue for bitcoin. On the one side, the bitcoin itself is very hard to hack, and this is mostly because of its supporting blockchain technology. Since bitcoin users actively check blockchain, exploits are unlikely to occur.

[Mizan 96]

I don't know brother. But we have to use safe wallet. Becouse many scam wallet on online brother. I think youbit wallet is best wallet for tight security system. No one can hacked it .

So you really think that online wallets are not hacked. They can be used to store your money but they are not the safest mean of your currency storage they are also hacked to get money from some specific accounts.

 

If a person not use any type of security for their wallet then I think the chances of hack their wallet will gonna to increase.

[Arvind Arvy 43]

I have heard some of the people's account has been hacked before. So all must be so careful . everyone should be secure for as far as remember their password

[Karani 99]

I don’t know about wallets but there are a number of crypto exchanges that have fallen prey to cybercriminals over the years. They include Mt. Gox, Bitfinex, and Binance.

[Zaino34 0]

Never before have I heard that a person’s wallet has been compromised and I don’t know if this really exists so the governor’s safety level has become very large and there is a two-factor authentication too

[Banito23 216]

Maybe because some online wallets has no good security options. I remembered my old friend complaining about loosing money to hackers, but I didn't asked the wallet name. People loose money steady to those cyber criminals daily. My advice is to find a well secured online wallets before putting their coins in.

I don't know any specific wallet but I know some people who they have been hacked before in their wallet, I mean hackers are following the accounts in that wallet not the wallet itself, in online wallets you should activate all the security features are available in that wallet 

I also do not know that where the exchange has been hacked or not. But i think that they might have a better future.

[Xsimple 441]

I do not know the exact name of that wallet because  I am not familiar with it, and year goes by their is a lot of news of user and claiming that they lose their balance or even the whole wallet been hack.

No one can break it because the security is so tight in it, other than that I don't know which wallet is the best.Even if your wallet doesn't store the CVV or the expiry date, the stolen information can be used to carry out targeted phishing attacks on you.only this year about 21 milion dollar get hacked from online wallet

Actualy most of browser wallets have low security standards and a lot have already been hacked in the past.

The CVV you are referring to is the extra secrurity layer of you credit/debit card (the 3digit code on the back of the card) and has nothing to do with cryptocurrency wallets.
