The amount of people who report hacked wallets is scary. What are your thoughts on it?

I've been using computers since I was a small kid and besides two credentials of mine being in certain leaks, I'm not aware of ever being hacked or having my passwords stolen.

However, I see here and elsewhere that people look into their crypto wallets and see "everything is gone" so often that I began to really doubt I should use a software wallet at all.

Of course there's Ledger and Trezor and I'm a supporter of those, but that's not the point here, I want to know what people think about the possible reasons why there's this incredible amount of hacking going on in crypto wallets, as if "out of the blue" someone "guesses" people's private keys, making it all soooo scary IMO…

Share your opinion, I'd like to see that.
