Let's talk about private keys and addresses.
A public key is derived from a private key through elliptic curve operations. This process is one-way: in practice, it is impossible to work backward from a public key to the private key.
One thing many people overlook: think of an address as an account for receiving funds, and the private key as the only credential that lets you access those funds. You can share your account details with anyone, but you should keep your private key to yourself.
There's no need to export your private key unless absolutely necessary. And if you do, don't copy it into a notes app that's connected to the internet.
