Lesson 1: Will the cryptocurrency ever disappear?

Is it true that cryptocurrencies can be hacked?

As cryptocurrencies are digital currencies, they are always at risk of being hacked.

In the past, there have been a number of incidents where cryptocurrencies were actually hacked and stolen.

How to prevent hacking of cryptocurrencies?

As we will learn in detail in Lesson 4, cryptocurrency wallets exist in two states: "hot wallets" that are connected to the Internet and "cold wallets" that are not connected to the Internet.

Since it is impossible to hack into something that is not connected to the Internet, a cold wallet that is not connected to the Internet is the best choice to prevent damage from hacking.

How to handle cryptocurrencies

Again, cryptocurrency is a digital currency and does not exist in substance.

As such, it can be easily erased in the same way that emails and photos can be.

In other words, if you mishandle it, there is a good chance that you could unintentionally lose it.

When handling provisional cryptocurrencies, it is advisable to keep the amount to a small amount until you become familiar with handling them after you have acquired sufficient knowledge.
