I have myetherwallet, which I considered the best wallet for now. The problem arises when someone mistakenly enter a site that's not shields from phishing. In fact myetherwallet is the best.

I think so that MEW best to invest and store Token and we should select "Keystore / JSON File"  to access our wallet.

I love MEW and use it with MetaMask.  No issues at all.
It's no different than you would handle security with your online banking.  Keep is secure and use difficult passwords that you change regularly and do not use the same password with all your crypto exchanges and wallets.

The big flaw of metamask is that you can't send tokens with it. So even if you use it, you have to have MEW acc which to import in metamask so you can use MEW to transfer the tokens.

For this purse there are a lot of different currencies and it suits me.And safety everywhere is very weak unfortunately.Any wallet and any exchange can be hacked.Exception wallets only on a laptop with his personal password.

MEW is my number 1 choice. Maybe MEW has that history of "Hacked" but the security system of MEW is what I love before.

Would you mind explaining how MEW became awful for you? I use MEW and for me it is doing fine.

I use MEW to store my eth and tokens. Just add another layer of security when trying to access mew.
What's good is that they even recommend you to use metamask, brave, or hardware wallet with tutorials on their website.

As I don't have a hardware wallet then I have to login in an insecure manner (ie via https with no 2FA but instead seed/private key).
Maybe things have changed, but until they support 2FA I wouldn't go near it. If I had a hardware wallet, it would obviously be fine.
Not worth the risk imo. Unfortunately a lot of new people to crypto aren't aware of the dangers.
