How Crypto Wallets Compare to Bank Accounts

in LeoFinancelast month

Hi hiver, if you're looking for information regarding "how Crypto wallets compare to bank accounts," then you have landed in the right place. When we see crypto wallets and bank accounts, it seems like they serve the same purpose; they have the same aim. Both aim to transact your money and store your money. But there are differences that we should talk about. Differences are in control, Insecurity, and the risk.

A bank account means trust in an institution. So, whenever you deposit the amount in a bank, whether it is for the minimum balance requirement or fixed deposit, or anything else Bank uses that money for the business. They give loans to others to earn interest, An invest in multiple sectors. When you deposit in the bank account, you get services like protection, customer service, and insurance. If the bank fails to provide Security, they ensure your funds, and it is 3rd party that is managing your money and everything. You just need to deposit.

Now talking about a crypto wallet flips the whole concept. So you have a private key, and by using that private key, you can prove your true ownership. That is why you have to secure your private keys, because everything is in your hands. So you are holding your money in the Crypto wallets, and it is in your hand that whatever you want to do, you can do it; it is truly owned by you. If some other person controls your wallet keys, that means that particular person is the owner of your wallet and the assets you hold in that particular wallet. So the wallet with the private key is the true ownership, and there is no middleman, no bank, and no government; it is a decentralised system.

So a decentralised crypto wallet provides full freedom. Still, it has a big responsibility because in bank accounts, banks take your responsibility. Still, here you have to take your personal responsibility. In the bank, when you lose the password of your internet banking, you can reset it by using the bank and your personal documents, Mobile numbers, and other things, but in the crypto wallet, that is not possible. You have to protect your seed phrase and private crypto wallet keys. You can send your crypto to Anybody in the world, anytime you want, even at 2:00 AM. And it supports borderless payment, while bank is restricted. It is totally different.

Talking about security, in crypto wallets, if you have hardware wallets, then it is more secure. You just have to store your keys safely, and you are done. You have to be careful when you are using that particular wallet online. Protecting your wallet is everything.

People like me use both because this is the time when both things are important for us. So we have to balance things. I chose a crypto wallet as the best among them, but there is a personal risk Involved that you have to keep in mind. That is it for today, guys. Enjoy the Friday. I am signing off.

You need to use any of them wisely, the bank can control you but less risks since there are no keys for the walled, crypto wallet you gotta be very very careful with keys and scams

crypto means taking responsibility in our hand that is the difference

The key is, my friend, that everything belongs to us. We don't need to wait for a third party to tell us when and how we can access our money. However, with cryptocurrency wallets, everything depends on us, both the security and the timing of how we withdraw the money.

stronger words said by you and this is what real financial freedom is
