Wallets

Cryptocurrency wallets do not store crypto tokens directly. Instead, the tokens are maintained on the blockchain network. These wallets are designed to keep private and public keys, along with the necessary passwords for accessing these digital assets. Crypto wallets can manifest in various forms, such as a device, a program, a piece of software, or an application.
