Virtual currency wallets and local wallets are wallets specially used to store virtual currency
difference: local wallets are installed on their own computers or mobile phones, while online wallets encrypt the private key and put it on the server
personal computers may be implanted with Trojans; The wallet server also has the risk of being attacked by hackers, and the encrypted private key is cracked. Server security is better than personal computers, but it is easier to attract hackers' attention
< H2 > extended data:
virtual currency Wallet:
there are three main types: Online wallet, client wallet (mobile client, computer client) and hard wallet
1. Online Wallet: it refers to the operation of virtual currency relative to wallet by users in the form of network; The main form is website, which users can visit through computer and mobile phone
2. Client Wallet: it is an installation software, which needs to be downloaded to the computer or mobile phone, and can only be used after installation; This is the type of mobile app wallet that I just mentioned
3. Hard Wallet: it is similar to the wallet in the form of U disk, which is a real type of wallet
local Wallet:
the English name of local wallet is local wallet. Local wallet is to store private key and transaction data in local terminal, such as computer, mobile phone or other local devices; It refers to the storage location of the key, and its concept is independent of online wallet and offline wallet
the English name of local wallet is local wallet. It is one of the terms related to bitcoin wallet in blockchain. Local wallet is to store private key and transaction data in local terminal, such as computer, mobile phone or other local devices; Local wallet refers to the storage location of key, which is independent of online wallet and offline wallet
the local wallet is installed on your own computer or mobile phone, while the online wallet is encrypted and put on the server. Personal computers may be implanted with Trojans. Hackers may steal your wallet files and record your wallet password; The wallet server may also be attacked by hackers, and the encrypted private key may be cracked. Server security protection is better than personal computers, but it is also easier to attract hackers' attention. In terms of security, I think these two types of wallets are similar
to enhance the security of local wallet and online wallet, it's better to set a more complex password, and don't forget it. Both local wallet and online wallet are easy to use and easy to use. Because online wallet is not limited by clients, it is easier to use than local wallet. Bitcoin core, Bitai wallet and bitpai wallet all belong to this category

can be roughly divided into two categories, hot wallet (online wallet) and cold wallet (offline wallet)
first, hot wallet
Hot wallet is also called online wallet, It includes light wallets and heavy wallets (all node wallets). The wallets that need to be connected to the Internet can be directly traded
