 It is very important to protect your wallet from hackers.You have to take care of some basic things if you don't want someone to hack your wallet.Never ever login into fishing sites.By fishing sites I mean that sites which are similar to the original one but are made only to get your details so that they can hack your wallets.Never ever share the private key to your wallet with someone else.Many people while participating in bounties add their private key instead of their wallet address by mistake.So never commit such mistakes because by doing this you are giving a direct chance to someone to get into your wallet.

In principle, it is almost impossible to hijack the Ethereum wallet. The danger to our wallet is our self-confidence and inattention. The main thing: 1. do not switch to extraneous links, 2. do not enter the wallet from the search.

I use mew to store tokens and now many hack cases are hacked but we can minimize the chances of being hacked by storing our key well and not telling others, we can also save lots of tokens in one wallet and stored in some wallet.

yes I agree with you, not to make one between the address and private key, because as a bounty hunter when filling the registration form sometimes we make a small mistake copy and paste the private key, but it is the biggest mistake

The best thing you can do, that I do is simply keep connected to a computer that you only connect to the internet when you're going to send money. Of course it's also important that you've never done anything else with that computer.

This is for those who use wallets with cheap transaction fee, such as ethereum based wallets.
There are some who cannot yet afford to purchase a hardware wallet. On that note, i have a suggestion on how your wallet can be safe from hackers. I have always noticed wallets that get easily hacked are those that are subject to public view.
Try as much as possible to have a separate cold wallet address that you do not copy and paste the private key, and neither do you share the address with anyone. You can use it to store most of your valuable coins.
Even if you want to transfer any coin or token to an address belonging to another person, first transfer it to your public wallet before sending it out.
I use these wallets. Cux it's given me a reliable and you can save the easily coins and the private keys for the long term

I think that you should have a computer, even a bad one, just dedicated to holding and wallets, keep it safe and format it from time to time.

It is not hard to protect your wallet from hackers you just need to know what is the do's and dont's also dont always enter private key without check the proper site or url. And it is much better to write your private key to a paper than storing it to your computer to avoid any problems.
The best thing to do is to search for everything that related on that matter, and also knowing do's and dont's is important to keep your account safe. And also always connect your account to your computer to avoid metamask.

The best way to protect yourself from hackers is, first, keep your funds off of exchanges after you have acquired your coins. Exchanges get hacked all the time and you also don't hold the private keys, so you are really at a security disadvantage.

I think the most reliable way to protect their crypto-currency reserves is to transfer them to a paper purse and hide it in a bank cell.

The best way to protect your e-wallet from hackers is to set up 2-factor authentication. Always change your password every 2 months, and if you have money, then the sincere advice for you is to invest in hardware wallets like Trezor or Ledge Nano S, will not be hackers attacked usurp the crypto.

Do not open the website carelessly. Many phishing websites today. It's good if you bookmark on important websites that you visit frequently. Avoid using wallet exchange because your assets will be threatened if the exchange is hacked.
