Wallets
Wallets are essential for managing assets and interacting with the Sei blockchain. There are various types of wallets available, each offering different features and levels of security.
Types of Wallets
- Software Wallets: These are applications or browser extensions that manage private keys and interact with the blockchain. They are easy to use and accessible on both desktop and mobile devices.
- Hardware Wallets: These are physical devices that securely store private keys offline. They provide enhanced security but are less convenient for frequent transactions.
- Passkey-based Wallets: These wallets use passkeys for authentication instead of traditional seed phrases, offering an additional layer of security.
