Can someone explain we what is going on? For the last few days everyone was talking about EFT, but today from few hours you are talking about some "BU", "Antpool", "pool"and other stuff. I'm pretty new in BTC and I don't understand what you are taking about, could someone help me?

I wouldn't know how to summarize or distill it further as you have to be somewhat familiar with bitcoin to grasp it. Bottom line if you are a new user. You are safe if you keep your coins off online wallets and exchanges as this blows over. Secure them in Hard ware wallets if you can or an offline computer.

Why do you recommend this ? Some people are here to trade and invest and buy-sell- sell-buy... why if i have coins to the exchange i maybe have problem?
( don't tell me is not safe like gox we all know that but it's the price to pay if something happen in case of hacker - or government Smiley we know that, at least we took a lesson with gox )

but what this have to do?

It is all about having options. If there is an imminent hard fork you want to have possession of your private keys as you have more options. The safest most private way is to run a Bitcoin Core node on a home computer. Second would be a hardware wallet like Trezor or Ledger Nano S.
Wait, Electrum is not safe anymore?

Do I understand correctly that some safety gap appeared in bitcoin world in the last few days?

You can use a Trezor with Electrum. If you are going to use a local bitcoin wallet like Core that does not support hardware wallets YET use a real good password.


Okay, one more question, why should I combine Trevor with electrum?

I thought only online wallets such as blockchaininfo wallet are vulnerable to hackers.
I thought that Electrum wallet is not possible to be hacked (if yes, how?).

Any wallet that exposes your private keys can be hacked. Keylogger malware can steal your password or a trojan could substitute a different bitcoin address. Bitcoin Core is still the most private way to use bitcoin but it is ultimately not as secure as a hardware wallet. The most secure way to use Bitcoin Core is to run Armory on top of it in cold storage mode. Needs two computers one always offline for the Armory wallet with private keys.
As hardware wallet you mean wallet on USB or other offline device, right?

Lets say i created wallet with Electrum, then someone infects my PC with keylogger. All what he can get from me is just my wallet password - is it enough to steal my coins?

From what I know hacker can also hack my computer and steal my private keys which are located on my PC - but they are encrypted, right? What is required to decrypt them?

Do you have any proposition for resistance and support levels?
