Could you elaborate on the key distinctions between a crypto wallet and a traditional physical wallet? I'm particularly interested in understanding how they differ in terms of their purpose, functionality, and security measures. With a physical wallet, I'm familiar with storing cash, cards, and other tangible items, but a crypto wallet seems to operate in a completely different realm. I'd appreciate your insights on how they differ in terms of accessibility, storage of value, and overall user experience.

Unlike physical wallets that hold physical currency, crypto wallets store digital codes that represent your digital assets.

Public keys serve as your public address in the cryptocurrency network, allowing others to send you digital assets.

Private keys, on the other hand, provide exclusive access to your digital assets.
