The official report was put out by Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and they should know, otherwise they wouldn't have made a false statement putting their brand at risk while eliminating risk for the consumer: http://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/201408_cfpb_consumer-advisory_virtual-currencies.pdf

Even if you use best practices, anything that connects to the Interneteven big companiescan be hacked.

What do you mean by hacked? If I use a system that is purely interpreting data it gets from the internet, then I really doubt it can be hacked in any way. But complex machines like home computers of tablets or modern phones may very well be prone to being hacked, I guess.
