My bitcoin wallet has not been hacked. It exists in a cold wallet.
As long as you don't disclose your private key to others, hackers can't invade.
I still believe in the security protection of bitcoin. Smiley
Even if you do not give out your private carelessly, simply making silly mistake by connecting your network to phishing WiFi results to the lost of your bitcoin by scammers who search in your device looking for your private keys, so you can win the hackers by storing your funds offline as this is the best way of keeping your secret keys.
Also storing your coins offline is not completely secure either, if you bring unknown persons to your house if someone happens to find the paper where you have your seed words or private key they could steal it from you and then steal your coins, this is why securing your coins is not an easy thing at all but we must find a way to do so otherwise hackers are going to get to our coins and that is obviously something we do not want to happen.

There are all kinds of ways where you can fuck up even if you keep your paper wallet and your house. Let it burn down or whatever, spill some water over it while typing the keyboard. Let your dog eat your paper wallet with 500 BTC on it. Cheesy
It requires caution no matter where you keep it. One thing is for sure: if you keep paper wallets or hardware wallets at home, never talk about it to anyone. That is the worst you can do.
