Hi, i have backupped my pvkeys on an usb stick. I wrote it also down on a piece of paper. My computer broke. I put a metal pin through the harddrives. I will not buy a new pc soon. So i wont check in on myetherwallet for some time. I cant click on phishing links. My question is : are my funds safe? Can myetherwallet get hacked? Can my funds dissapear even when i have no computer, hid my keys? Im to stupid to work with a ledger or trezor. Can something happen to it like with the parity/kill?
To put it bluntly of course it can, its a platform and therefore can be hacked infact it was just a month ago that their system was compromised and the page was redirecting you to phishing website that stole peoples private keys.
However its important to note that MEW is at the end of the day just a gateway platform, and does not store your keys online, your keys are always with you, MEW just provides an interface for you to access them, and if you follow best practices when maintaining your keys offline, oer whena cessing your wallets through MEW than a hack on MEW should not result in the loss of your funds.
