A bitcoin wallet stores private keys, which are used to access your public bitcoin address and transaction signatures. The keys can be used to track ownership, receive or spend bitcoin. A public key allows others to make payments to the address derived from it, whereas a private key enables spending from that address by way of transaction digital signatures.

There are different types of wallets, yet I will talk about one, the best! Let’s look at cold storage device, also know has a hardware storage/wallet. You might recognize it has the nano ledger.s there are others too. This device is the best way I believe to store your bitcoin. It generates your private key, and keeps it safe from hackers on the internet and or any other system you use to transact. It will digitally sign, produce public key when making the transactions, at same time never revealing your private key. Safest.
