    Bitcoin Hacks & basic ways to protect your Crypto

    Posted: 16 Jul 2020 06:45 AM PDT

    Interest in Bitcoin is increasing globally. More and more people are willing to participate in Bitcoin trading and mining. However, Bitcoin history shows that it is not always as safe as we would like it to be. Let's take a look at some major Bitcoin hacks.

    Allinvain

    Allinvain is a nickname of a user on BitcoinTalk forums. Basically, he was the first one to experience a major Bitcoin loss. He lost 25,000 bitcoins, all together it was worth around $500,000. The user believed that someone hacked into his computer to steal BTC.

    Mt Gox

    Shortly after Allinvain's case, the next hack attempt happened. Mt Gox was one of the biggest exchanges that provided a trade between Bitcoin and fiat money. Hackers compromised its website and started to sell Bitcoins. Their actions made the price go down dramatically. However, attackers did not pay attention to the $1000 limit Mt Gox had. Nonetheless, that hack attack had an important influence on BTC.

    Other exchanges

    Exchanges are being attacked by hackers quite often.

    In 2012 Bitfloor suffered a terrible attack and lost 24,000 BTC (around $250,000). Unfortunately, this exchange was not able to survive the attack and was closed in 2013.

    In 2015 Bitstamp exchange was hacked. It lost approximately 19,000 BTC (around $5 million).

    In 2016 Bitfinex also lost 120,000 BTC (around $77 million) to hackers.

    Twitter hack

    The last attack happened in one of the biggest social nets. Twitter became a part of the latest attackers' actions. The most significant and world-famous accounts promoted Bitcoin scam for several hours.

    Anti-hack protection

    The most important question is how to protect your Bitcoin savings from upcoming attacks. Here are some basic things that may help you to be safe:

    • Use trustworthy antivirus software
    • Choose your exchange service wisely
      Make sure that it is properly registered and has a policy for emergency situations.
    • Be careful when choosing a Bitcoin wallet
      There are lots of options to choose from now. Check the history of the service, make sure it suits your purposes.
    • Use different wallets
      Avoid putting all your savings in one place.
    • Keep your private keys safe
      It is important to remember that the loss of private keys will lead to the loss of coins.
    • Use a multifactor authentication
      Multifactor authentication links your account to your mobile phone.
    • Do not believe in easy money
      We all should remember that "there's no such thing as a free lunch" but there are a lot of impersonators & scammers.

    Even though there is no way to be a hundred percent safe, there are a lot of steps we can take to avoid unfortunate losses. Cryptocurrency services are improving their protection systems all the time, and we all should do what we can to make this network more secure.

    Symbol blockchain's advanced features set optimises tokenization and security token issuances.

    Symbol blockchain is poised to support the emerging tokenized asset sector.

    Symbol has been designed to serve entrepreneurs, firms, and institutions that require the use of a modern, efficient, and easy to use blockchain platform.

    Along the Symbol development process, it became clear which enhancements would allow the platform to solve the most problems and therefore benefit commercial entities the most. In turn, it also became clear that businesses operating in a number of innovative sectors would be at the forefront of adopting Symbol. These include firms operating in construction, data management, logistics, notarization, finance, and asset management.

    Businesses operating within the world of finance and wealth management, in particular, need a platform that would support the administration and management of tokenized digital assets. In this article, we will explore just how and why Symbol is poised to support the emerging tokenized asset sector.

    Symbol allows for full compliance with data protection and securities laws, and also takes into account the sophisticated nature of more traditional financial instruments, which incorporate voting, dividend payments, redemption, and early settlements.

    In addition, the publication of the standards for the issuance of security tokens are now publicly available on GitHub and detail the process of registering and managing a security token within the Symbol network. The new published standard allows financial institutions and governments to configure an asset tokenization system using Symbol, and then customize it in a wide variety of ways in order to create a digitized asset.
