With our most recent podcast we discussed crypto wallets both hot and cold. Because there are too many to actually include in our podcast we thought it best to list a few here. Crypto wallets come in 3 main categories: Hot, Warm, and Cold. We’ve listed out wallets based on those categories and what blockchains they are used for.
Hot Crypto Wallets
These are wallets that are quick to access and easy to use. Because of this most of the community would say that they are the least secure, but where everyone starts.
