This is a hypothetical question. I am wondering, can my desktop wallet be hacked if I log into an unsecured WiFi hotspot even if I do not log into my bitcoin desktop wallet? I am wondering because I travel a lot, and when travelling I sometimes log into coffee shop WiFi hotspots. I don't keep a lot of funds on the desktop but I'm wondering about this.
I'm pretty sure everything is not safe specially an unsecured wifi hotspot. The UNSECURED would've gave it away of how safe those things are. Just don't do it, man. If you really do value your life's work, you wouldn't risk placing your coins in danger by connecting to an UNSECURED wifi hotspot. Play it safe and keep on using your own WiFi.
