Wallet
Basics
Что это значит
A tool (software or hardware) that stores your cryptocurrency private keys, allowing you to send, receive, and manage your digital assets. Wallets don't actually store your crypto — they store the keys needed to access it on the blockchain.
Пример
A software wallet like MetaMask runs in your browser, while a hardware wallet like Ledger stores your keys offline for maximum security.
