无论是想交易赚个差价,还是看好数字货币的长期价值,都一定要有数字货币钱包。全球知名的数字货币钱包有71个*。所以,选一个合适的数字货币钱包比较困难,如果你是个萌新就会难上加难。
这篇文章重点要讲4件事:什么是数字货币钱包,工作原理,挑选原则,顶级的几款钱包介绍。
1.什么是数字货币钱包
首先纠正一个误区:数字货币钱包并不是传统意义的钱包,加密货币是去中心化的,所以数字货币钱包里面并不存钱,钱包只存储公钥和私钥。
2.那么数字货币钱包是如何工作的呢?
私钥是一个随机生成的字符串,通过使用私钥我们可以进行转账。私钥丢了,意味着钱没了。
公钥是根据私钥加密生成的字符串,公钥是对外公开的,别人可以往这个地址里转币了。
映射到传统金融体系:公钥就是银行卡号,私钥就是密码。
3.数字货币钱包类型
按照钱包场景,钱包可以分为5个类型:电脑钱包、移动端钱包、云端钱包、硬件钱包、纸钱包
电脑钱包:电脑里下载一个钱包,相对比较安全,但是现在啥电脑都会联网,只要联网就可能被黑,只能说相对比较安全。
移动端钱包:移动端钱包就是电脑钱包的翻版,只不过就是运营在手机上而已,现在移动网民用户量已经超过35亿**,所以这个普及度更高。这类钱包通常把私钥存储在手机上,但是大多数平台都不那么可靠,所以这个也并不是十分安全。
在线钱包:在线私钥存在云端,只要联网,就能用这个钱包。在云端的感觉,总有种被窥视的感觉,也会带给你不安全感觉。
硬件钱包:硬件钱包就是把钱包存在硬件里,类似于小U盘之类的。这类钱包的缺点是:硬件得花钱买。如果你是价值投资者,相信长期的力量,不会在短期内进行交易。那么你可以用硬件钱包,硬件钱包。
纸钱包:就是通过各种物理手段,比如用一张纸记下来,或者转移成一个二维码存起来,容易丢,输入也不方便。
4.你需要什么样的钱包?
安全和体验不能同时获得,要根据自己的实际情况选钱包,需要问自己几个问题:
我是不是天天看钱包,每天都转账;我要在钱包里存多少种数字货币;愿不愿意花钱买钱包,愿意花多少钱;安全是否是最最最最重要的;是否愿意为了安全牺牲一些体验?
钱包费用:除了硬件钱包,其他钱包一般都是免费的。
安全性:硬件钱包是最安全的,需要多做点功课,比如看看这个钱包公司的经营时间,还有是否值得信赖。
用户友好:移动端钱包、电脑钱包用户友好,操作方便。
便捷性:全球约有3000多种数字货币。如果你打算持有多种数字货币,最好选个硬件钱包,因为硬件钱包支持的币种多,比如LedgerNanoS以及Trezor,支持超过700个币种。
5.全球Top数字货币加密钱包
根据前面介绍的钱包方向,接下来我会介绍每个方向的头部钱包。
