What is a Bitcoin/Crypto Wallet and how do I get one?
A crypto wallet is a necessary part of holding and transacting crypto coins. To send or receive any kind of coin, you’ll need a secure wallet that’s just for cryptocurrency. These specialized wallets:
1. Exist to keep track of coin ownership
2. Help generate the public addresses you’ll need to make transactions.
