Wallet hacking is it possible?

We have already seen many exchange site's wallet getting hacked like binance, cryptopia, etc. I don't know how they are doing that but I think bruteforcing of privatekey is possible they they have just lacked of security on where they store their privatekey

Well, it all depends on you
do not visit suspicious sites
keep your keys in a safe place
when activating the key, make sure that you were on the original site

My friend's ethereum wallet got hacked 2 weeks ago. He told me that he did not save his private key in any computer. He had written it down in a notebook, also he had not checked his wallet using any private key or metamask since early 2018. He was checking his balance from ethplorer.
I think it can be because of the key generators which are scary...

you are the security. everything depends on you. if you allow your keys to be exposed. definitely, you will loose your account to hackers. learn to protect and secure your keys. that what crypto is all about.

There is no perfect system in the digital world. Wallet always has a chance to hack. That's why wallet developers still improve its security. I think hackers also become smarter to steal the tokens/coins on wallets.

Even if they can't bruteforce your wallet, they can get your private key with phishing or trojan, so we have to be very careful with the way our stoking our private keys, actually, the best way is Ledger, the new one (Nano X) have a Bluetooth connection, if you holding some big value of cryptocurrency I think it's a must-have.

it's very possible, I've experienced my wallet being hacked. all my tokens in the wallet disappear instantly and only a few tokens remain. even though I don't have ethereum competed to send a token to another wallet.

it often happens if you open a suspicious website and attach the wallet address. do not carelessly attach addresses on unknown websites. it triggers your wallet to be hacked. I have experienced this.

Yes wallet hacking can be very much possible if you did not protect your private key when you allow third party to have access to your private information, for you to be Free from wallet hacking you have to secure your wallet key and never share your wallet key to any electronic devices that may cause leakage to your wallet if not you will get hacked.
