Types of virtual currency wallets
anmao wallet

And it is a multi currency Cross Chain Wallet, which supports BTC, BCH, LTC, ETH, etc, dash and erc-20 series of tokens. At present, it is the most complete currency digital currency wallet in the true sense
anmao wallet is the only digital currency wallet that supports Chinese mnemonic words. It is composed of 12 Chinese characters, which is convenient for memory and in line with Chinese reading habits

with embedded Android block browser, each transaction can be queried in real time by using transaction address, block height and transaction ID, which is accurate
there are also market and information DAPP, a multi-functional digital currency wallet
bitpai
bitpai wallet is a new generation of blockchain asset integrated service platform developed by bitpai team. It is based on HD wallet technology, multi signature and on chain transaction. It can easily and safely use digital currency and easily send and receive bitcoin on bitpai. At present, the main supported currencies are BTC, BTC, ETH, some erc2.0 tokens, qtum, HSR, dash, safe, LTC, LCH, Zec, etc and Doge
bitpai supports multi address coin issuing, built-in OTC and exchange (third-party service), and can trade with users from all over the world, which is more suitable for professional users with frequent transactions and OTC trading needs
in terms of security, the user controls the private key. After the transaction is completed, the coin is directly kept by the user. If it does not operate for a long time, bitpie will automatically lock, further improving the security of the wallet
disadvantages: for initial users, too many and complex functions are a kind of burden. They only need to send and receive digital currency simply. Too many complex functions increase the learning time cost of users and affect the experience of wallet users
atoken
atoken is a mobile wallet supporting multi currency cross chain exchange, which is safe and convenient. At present, it supports BTC, LTC, ETH, etc, Doge, EOS and other main chain currencies; BCD, BTG, BCH, SBTC, etc; Support all tokens of Ethereum erc20
users hold their own private key, which is stored in app with multiple encryption. They do not access the server in any form, and no one else can touch your digital assets; The wallet adopts 5-layer HD, horizontal isolation and vertical defense architecture; Pbkdf2, sha-512 and other encryption algorithms are used. At the same time, atoken implements the transaction acceleration function of wallet and supports the transaction acceleration of bitcoin and Ethereum
disadvantages: there is no market information in the wallet, which is inconvenient for users to use.
in terms of cloth storage and mining, I recommend Heshu hardware wallet and jiajiabao intelligent home miner. The core advantage of the proct is safety
take sum hardware wallet as an example. The advantages of sum hardware wallet are as follows:
1. The private key seed is encrypted layer by layer, physically isolated and never touched the Internet.
firstly, when creating the wallet, the seed password is generated and stored in the local encryption chip, and the 10 bit payment password is required
then, the transaction is made in the wallet. At this time, the user needs to enter the payment password to obtain the private key to digitally sign the transaction, and the transaction is completed. In addition, the private key seed is permanently stored in the chip, which is physically isolated and never touches the Internet. There is no need to worry about my password being stolen by hackers
Second, the bank system verifies the financial level motherboard and encryption chipuses the bank system to verify the financial level motherboard, and the private key seed is stored in the chip. If the proct is stolen or lost, and destroyed by malicious violence, the chip will trigger a self destruct circuit, and immediately permanently and irrecoverably delete all the information in the area
Third, it supports the withdrawal of global bitcoin ATM, which is convenient and fastthe reason why digital assets attract the attention of many fields in the world is that it is creating a global fast circulation, and the larger the circulation field is, the wider the scope is, and the higher its use value is. The core of digital assets is the medium it acts on among currencies. The Heshu wallet has built-in many mainstream exchanges in the world. It can trade digital assets anytime and anywhere. With one machine in hand, it can walk around the world without worry, and no longer have to worry about exchanging foreign currency
Different from conventional digital wallets, multi signature wallets need the authorization of multiple key holders to transfer digital currency, so the security of multi signature wallets is higher. Ordinary Wallet: a wants to transfer a bitcoin to X. A only needs his signature (using the private key) to complete the transaction. Sum Wallet: if a wants to transfer a bitcoin to x, a multi signature verification is set (at least two signatures of Abc3 indivials are required to transfer the money), then a needs B or C to complete the signature (using the private key) when a wants to transfer the money to X. I hope I can help you. Thank you

but from these two aspects, anmao wallet is still good

network virtual currency can be roughly divided into
the first category is familiar game currency. In the era of stand-alone games, the protagonist accumulates money by knocking down the enemy, entering the gambling house to win money, and using these to buy Herbs and equipment, but it can only be used in his own game console. At that time, there was no "market" between players. Since the establishment of Internet portal and community, the realization of game networking, virtual currency has a "financial market", players can trade game currency
the second type is the special currency issued by the portal website or instant messaging service provider, which is used to purchase the services in the website. The most widely used is Tencent's q-coin, which can be used to purchase membership, QQ show and other value-added services
the third kind of virtual currency on the Internet, such as bitcoin (BTC), Fuyuan coin (FTC), Wright currency (LTC), etc. bitcoin is an electronic currency proced by open-source P2P software.
