The digital currency atmosphere was built on a decentralised system of operation. Here it entails that a user is responsible for his cryptocurrency. On that note, everyone is responding for his/her own passphrases to their respective wallet which stores their cryptocurrency assets when sent to their wallet addresses.

CRYPTOCURRENCY ADDRESS

In the crypto world, there is what we call Address and this address is said to be a location where a digital currency can be sent to. Every cryptocurrency enthusiast has his/her own wallet addresses of which crypto currency assets are stored and just as I have said earlier, the digital currency address is used for the purpose of receiving and storing digital currency on the wallet.

The address is unique in such a way that it is a combination of letters and numbers just the way the password to our wallet is. These addresses are unique and each user on this space has a unique address of which crypto assets are received. A wallet can receive various cryptocurrency assets depending on the network of the said asset.
