I have seen many members in the forum who are not able to access their accounts and the accounts have been hacked. There are many others who are unable to access their account due to their correct password i.e. they have forgotten those passwords. Here my question is how to keep password safe so that we don't forget it.
I simply do not know why people are so forgetful about their passwords. If you are such a person, why not use common occurrences around you for the password but mix the upper and lower case? I see that simple enough. You may also write your password down somewhere and keep it safely just as you would do for your Bitcoin phrases.

I also read people advising you to keep your password through a third-party management online, I don't encourage that, I've heard enough of password compromise and that may be one of the reasons, just don't trust the internet for anything. However, if your account was hacked, why not use the email power to reclaim it back. This can also help you recover your lost password.
