What are the main kinds of crypto wallets businesses in the EU provide?
There are four kinds of wallets. The choice of which one a business needs depends heavily on the type of transactions and the required level of safety.
Software wallets allow customers to manage their online crypto assets themselves. The wallets (also called online, mobile, desktop, and hot wallets) use cryptographic keys stored on a connectable device that has access to the Internet. They provide easier access but may be vulnerable to hacking.
Cold wallets (also known as hardware wallets) are stored on a physical device that has no access to the Internet.
Hosted wallets represent a digital record of crypto assets and are stored on a secure third-party web server. They can be linked to the user’s account. Like hot wallets, they are easier to use but more vulnerable to hacking.
Decentralized wallets are a type of hosted wallet that reduces the security risks associated with hosted wallets. It doesn’t require a third-party service to transact or store the cryptocurrency.
