The exchange is ok, new exchanges, some places are not perfect, but trading is convenient.
on this exchange 123000 ITNS were stolen. The hackers picked up my password and bought their orders at an inflated price.
Theft continues, look at the price of buying and selling orders https://stocks.exchange/trade/XCPO/BTC/1W
If you had 2FA they'll never hack you, so can blame only yourself for.

I am not sure about 2FA being unhackable.  I have heard about hackers using their social engineering skills to get cell phone companies to send them people's sim cards.  This then gives them the access to 2FA without having to hack it.

As far as passwords go I use a secure online password generator to come up with random passwords.  I have so many passwords I can't remember them but I write them down on a small notebook so that I do not loose access to accounts because I can't remember them all.

2FA bind to a device, not to a SIM card. You can take any smartphone on Android versions (even without a SIM card) and set up a 2FA on it.
