RE: The Biggest Theft in the History of the World (Approx USD400 Million Hacked)

in #cryptonews7 years ago

OMG another big hack on the Japanese exchange. First Mt Gox and second this one. Exchanges are not the most secure place to store your crypto currencies - so peoples are requested to either store them in your own wallet in your computer or get a hardware wallet. By far hardware wallets are the most secure ones.

Sort:  

Hardware wallets only good for long term hodling. But it is not preferred by day traders, who have to store their cryptos on exchanges for regular trading.

I don't own a hardware wallet myself but I have spread my portfolio across several exchanges. Being clever and not putting all my eggs in 1 basket.

it's was most people do these days... even if 1 exchange gets hacked cryptos on other exchanges are safe... but what if all exchanges gets hacked at the same time... would be a nightmare..

its less likely for all exchanges to get hacked at once

you know what i prefer to hodl than trade coz in the long run hodling will be more profitable than trading day by day
