This is something that has been worrying users around the world.

A few days ago, we have written how the New Zealand-based cryptocurrency exchange Cryptopia was hacked losing millions of dollars in digital assets.

Seems exchanges are being hit hard recently. @Cryptopia_NZ hack and now @DeribitExchange and @Poloniex down in same hour.

During the last few years, exchanges in the cryptocurrency market have been hacked, exposing users’ funds to criminals and losing millions of dollars.

As the crypto community has very present the hack that Cryptopia experienced, users are worried that other platforms could be targeted and attacked by hackers. Additionally, both exchanges, Poloniex and Deribit have been affected during the same hour, which has also raised concerns among crypto users.

It is always important to store digital assets using hardware wallets rather than exchanges. Centralized platforms that handle digital assets on behalf of their clients are usually targeted by attackers. Hardware wallets are currently the safest way to store virtual currencies.
