      I haven’t used Zaif. To be honest, I haven’t even heard about it, though it can be because I’m new to the cryptocurrency world. In general, I think, almost every exchange can be hacked, but I prefer reading information about the one I’m going to use. Also I was lucky to find a list of the most trustworthy cryptocurrency exchanges on https://cryptolinks.com/cryptocurrency-exchange . I’ve been using them for several months already and haven’t faced any issues yet.
