What’s the difference between a private key, a public key, and an address? Many people can’t explain it clearly!
Most Bitcoin addresses are generated by hashing a public key or script and then encoding it. Common formats start with 1, 3, or bc1.
No institution can reset your private key for you. The blockchain only recognizes valid signatures, and anyone who has the private key can access the assets at the corresponding address.
It’s safer to keep most of your assets somewhere you control, and only keep a small amount readily available.
