As I was reading online today, I came across this question "How can I protect my Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies from hackers?". The question caught the interest of quite a number of crypto experts all around.

Here are some of the helpful answers provided:

1. First, don't keep all the coins you have in just one wallet and avoid online wallets. Also, definitely use hardware wallets, avoid sharing your personal and wallets data with anyone and keep your details In a safe place. Keep the hygiene of your computer and mobile, always update your antivirus and avoid clicking on suspicious attachments, links etc.

2. Set up two-factor authentication. 2FA Authentication requires users to have two things to log into your e-mail account: something you know (password) and something you have (your cellphone).

3. Your wallet will be safer without having too many unnecessary downloads of applications on your computer or phone.

4. Always keep a backup of your wallet and always use cold storage for storing Bitcoin. Never disclose your Private key and never transact on a mobile device.

5. Avoid FREE WiFi, that the simplest way to get hacked. Always make sure you must secure your device first.
