Cryptocurrency digital wallets, also called wallets, are essential for storing and managing digital assets. There are two main types: hot wallets and cold wallets.
Hot wallets are connected to the internet, facilitating quick access to cryptocurrencies, but are more vulnerable to cyberattacks.
Cold wallets, on the other hand, operate offline, offering greater security against hackers and are ideal for storing large amounts of assets for the long term.
Examples of cold wallets include physical devices, such as hardware wallets. There are also mobile, desktop and online wallets, each with specific practical and security features. The choice of wallet depends on the investor's profile and needs.
