"Hey OP, I'm gonna answer one that's been driving newbies crazy - what's the difference between a public and private key? Public key is like an address, you share it with others, while the private key is like a password, keep it to yourself"

What's good guys, newbie here! I've got a basic q too - what's the difference between a blockchain and a ledger? From what I've gathered, a ledger is a general term for a book of records while a blockchain is a specific decentralized type of ledger.

"Hey all, just a heads up that private keys should never be shared with anyone - if you're giving someone access to your wallet, it's a bad idea. Don't forget to use 2FA whenever possible, and keep your seed phrase safe. That's all I got for now"

"Hey all, just wanted to chime in and say that cold storage is a must for long-term HODLers. It's not that hard to get a hardware wallet and store your coins that way, just gotta be willing to put in the effort. Been using a Ledger for years with no issues."
