Opencart is open source and this is a public forum.
All software gets updated, keep yourself informed.
It is correct to keep software updated, but there is no reason that OC1 can not be as secure, it requires some effort and knowledge.

So I ask for an answer if possible, every time reinstalling to the new version is necessary? Can I stay with the earlier version?
There are major changes from OC1 to OC2 to OC3
You do not NEED to upgrade to a newer OC version EVEN IF it is a major release, but you need to keep it updated. Some people are STILL using OC1 and are very happy with that, but it does requires updating from php5.4 to php7 and soon 8 .. that is not upgrading to the newest OC in totality, but it is keeping yourself informed and up to date.
FYI - You can move to any software you like - the example above applies to all.
