Introduction

Crypto Wallets are software programs or physical devices that store, sends, and receives cryptocurrencies. It consists of a private key and a public key. The public key is derived from the private key and it serves as the address for receiving cryptocurrencies.

Understand that crypto in itself isn't stored in your Wallets, but your crypto assets exist on a blockchain. The wallet allows you to interact with the balances held on that blockchain. It stores addresses and allows its owner to dispense their crypto assets.

It is important that your crypto assets are stored in a Wallet as it is secured and can only be assessed with a private key. Your keys are proof of ownership to your digital asset and it allows you to make transactions. If you lose your private keys, you lose access to your crypto asset.

Conclusion

When you buy digital currency on an exchange, you have the option to leave the "keys" to your coins in your Exchange's account. This is one way to store your crypto. But you can also move them to a personal crypto wallet, which could either be a software wallet ("hot wallet") or a hardware wallet(cold storage).

MetaMask is open-source, simple to use, and stores your keys locally on your browser. Although, since it is a hot wallet, it definitely is not the safest cryptocurrency wallet out there due to the limitations with hot wallets. However, the Wallet is one of the best within its categories.
