Recovery for your hacked account: Recovering hacked/lost accounts

You woke up after 4 years and began your posts in this year. What happened in between 2017 and 2021?

Ok, first of all thank you for the reply Cheesy

Sorry for the really late reply (I've been doing research on how my account was hacked and when did it happened, i have a hazy memories about it, it's kinda emotional to me that i wanted to forget it lol)
So what happened in past 4 years, well...

Short Answer:
I went back to cryptocurrency at around 2017 - 2018, found out my account was hacked, made new account, and I decided to let it go and just focus on my IRL stuffs. But now I'm back again (since i have a lot of free time now and also looking a way to earn some dime), and wanted to know how to secure my account this time (I don't want to repeat the same mistake i made back then).

Long Answer:
I started posting on this forum at around 2014, and gained some bitcoins from Signature Campaigning (I was a Member ranked user back then, again if I'm not mistaken), because i made some dimes with Sig Campaigning, I was figuring out how can i double my income, so i choose a CFD based stock trading on a website for a year or so (if I'm not mistaken the web I meant was 1broker), and i found out that this CFD based stock trading is much more profitable rather than doing sig campaigning, so i decided to went off at around late 2016.

Fast forward to late 2017 / early 2018, since the bitcoin price is rocketing (and soon will plummet) at 2017 - 2018, i decided to sell my bitcoin and "enjoy" my hard work. Sadly i sold it around 2018 therefore i only got like a small amount of incentives from the market going broke at that moment.

Since that withdrawal kinda helped my family, i decided to go back on bitcoin, and maybe i will earn a dime or so doing the signature campaign again. Sadly, i found my account was hacked, confused yet heart-broken that all of my hard work went to ashes. I went into 5 stage of Grief in a relatively short amount of time, I'm angry, sad and confused, in a quick-response i made a new account (this one) and have the intention to call out the hacker. But i thought to myself, who would've believed me, therefore i didn't do that, instead i just accepted the fact that i lost that account and continues with my life.

Fast forward to nowadays (2021). Again i found out that I still has some savings inside my wallet that has grown into some relatively medium amount of numbers, and try to cross-check the said info with the internet, and it's true that bitcoin has risen up once again. Also it's pandemic, and i have a lot of free time, therefore i checked back again with bitcointalk, and started posting some posts to rise up my rank on this account. But after posting some posts, those PTSD came back to me, and then i decided to write this topic, since i didn't do what i should've done in my old account back then (which is having very little security on my old account). So decided to not to repeat the same dread mistake, I've made this topic, and you know the rest.

Well, i don't want you to believe my story, but if you read the story, thank you for reading it. If you don't well it's ok too. All i wanted is to secure this account and to not to repeat my past mistake.

Anyway, have a nice day Cheesy
