Title: Cryptocurrency wallet
Post by: Goldlife on April 15, 2021, 10:22:57 AM
A cryptocurrency wallet is a device,[1] physical medium,[2] program or a service which stores the public and/or private keys[3] for cryptocurrency transactions. In addition to this basic function of storing the keys, a cryptocurrency wallet more often also offers the functionality of encrypting and/or signing information. Signing can for example result in executing a smart contract, a cryptocurrency transaction (see "bitcoin transaction" image), identification or legally signing a 'document' (see "application form" image).

Simple cryptocurrency wallet

A simple cryptocurrency wallet contains pairs of public and private cryptographic keys. The keys can be used to track ownership, receive or spend cryptocurrencies.[5] A public key allows others to make payments to the address derived from it, whereas a private key enables the spending of cryptocurrency from that address.[6]

The cryptocurrency itself is not in the wallet. In the case of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies derived from it, the cryptocurrency is decentrally stored and maintained in a publicly available distributed ledger called the blockchain.[5]

eID wallet

Providing an eID and a diploma and digitally signing the 'application form' with a crypto wallet app.
Some wallets are specifically designed to be compatible with a framework. The European Union is creating an eIDAS compatible European Self-Sovereign Identity Framework (ESSIF) which runs on the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI). The EBSI wallet is designed to (securely) provide information, an eID and to sign 'transactions'.

Many of the cryptocurrency wallets are discussed here. I don’t think there’s any need to create the same topic over and over again.Others will benefit if you create other topics without creating the same topics. Hope you understand.
