📊 Wallets and security | Private keys and addresses
· Key point: An Ethereum address is derived from the last 20 bytes of the Keccak-256 hash of the public key. It is written as 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters.
· Why it matters: No institution can reset your private key for you. The blockchain only recognizes valid signatures, and anyone who gains control of your private key can transfer the assets at the corresponding address.
· Reminder: Don’t export your private key unless necessary. If you do need to export it, don’t copy it into a notes app connected to the internet.
