What are cryptocurrency wallets?

The Zen Crypto Show - Learn Bitcoin, Ethereum, NFTs, web 3 and how to invest in crypto

To use cryptocurrencies, one needs a crypto wallet. A wallet allows you to see your balance and send and receive funds. Most cryptocurrency wallets look like the banking and payment apps you already use, but they work very differently under the hood.

Today we’ll explore cryptocurrency wallets in 3 parts. First, we’ll discuss how a cryptocurrency wallet works by comparing it to things you’re already familiar with. Second, we’ll dive into the world of public and private keys, which are your identity on the blockchain. And finally, we’ll talk about the different types of wallets you can use and their levels of security.

The Zen Crypto Show is produced by ZenGo, where you can buy, sell, trade, and earn cryptocurrencies with mind-bending simplicity and safety and is hosted by Sebastien Couture.
