I think everyone in Crypto should know this. If anybody ask your key then unfortunately if you give the private key then you will have to lose all you money and public key is given to receive or send Cryptocurrencies.

Public key is the address to the wallet that you put out there to receive funds to your account, your private keys is what you use to access your wallet on the blockchain it should be kept in a secure place at all times.

Thanks for this explanation, but both of them are important to the wallet, because I think you will be hacked if you lost them or someone stole them from you, they are the key to your wallet, and the key to recover your wallet if you lost password or something else

Private keys are the keys that unlock your wallet, they must be kept is a secure location cause if loss or stolen you will lose all access to your wallet and public keys are addresses that identify your wallet people can use it to send money to you.

If we talk about wallets then we will also talk about the wallet keys. There are two kinds of wallet keys; the private key and the public key.

 

The public key is also known as your wallet address. This is the alpha numeric number which you give to someone in order to receive a certain coin or token. The word public means that you can share it so you can make transactions.

 

Next is the private keys. Private keys are like the keys you use to open your door. For example you are going to unlock your door and you need a key to open it. It is the same with your private keys, this is the key that you will use to unlock or access your wallet. The word private here means that this key needs to be kept by you and never be shared otherwise other people can access your wallet.

 

So always keep in mind the difference so that your wallet will be safe and your coin or token will not be taken away from you. Share only your public key (wallet address) and not your private key.

On my opinion is that private key is your wallet access key. We need always keep it safe. And public key is your wallet address. You will receive crypto through your public key.

Well the simple private key is a type of key or security code or password that tend to be private and cant is easily accessed or more like strict than the public keys, and yes public keys are more like a path or address and the private key is the key to open a certain path.

Now the terms were more confusing. It really suggest that we should always be careful and let our private keys safe. This information is really important especially there are many sites asking keys.

The difference between private and public keys is clearly very different. The private key is only known by us and it is private and the public key is the key that is known by people because it is overall.

What is public is a key that others can see and use to share coins with us. But what is private is a key that only you are aware of. If others know that you will lose your coins.

well the difference between the public key and the private key.. the public key is you can open your account, but you can not send funds.. the private key is you can open your account and you can also send funds.. but make sure no one can knows your private key so that no one can hack your account.

private key is like your email password. It’s a set of letters and numbers unique to an investor’s own crypto wallet that allows the investor to send digital currency from that wallet. Just like your email password, the private key needs to be kept absolutely secret at all times or you will likely lose all of the wealth in your crypto wallet.A public key is a derivation of a private key, which can be traced back to a private key but can’t be used to decode it.

    • Сам тоже думаю не садиться в этот поезд, а то пошёл там выполнять их задания в Гелакси и только сбои да сбои, надоело там раз разом крутить кнопку проверки. Почему всё так происходит не пойму, полностью отбили мотивацию.
    • Если их машина по сжиганию будет работать отлично, то и токен будет в будущем расти из-за сокращения его огромного количества. Пока как знаю дела в этом направлении идут не плохо, но рост конечно идут за счёт Битка.
    • Да это уж многих удивило, сам тоже увы не в теме, хотя крос у меня стоил 10$, если был бы 100$, то точно зашёл бы в тему с ремонтом, а там уже каждый день за 20 дайсов мог бы получать по 0.5$ за 20 секунд.  Кстати у вас всё ещё видны ваши кеды ? Их можно ремонтировать 🤔
    • Да, типа это пользователи так сделали, что форум на дне, а ведь с самого начала нужно было понять, что на одной оплата так далеко дело не пойдёт. Нужно было с самого начала работать над качеством пользователей и жёстче бороться с ботоводами, мотивировать на создание топиков, дать возможность размещать реф ссылки во всех разделах форума, в том числе и сокращение ссылки, подключить рекламу к форуму, если так плохо дело с подписанными. И это только начало списка, где всё это можно реализовать, но нет никаких действий очень долгое время.
    • Отлично, что и у вас получилось, теперь можно будет вникать в тему, где как заметил сами их квесты много времени не отнимают, ну кроме проверки. Сделал всё, оставил на час или вообще зайдёшь завтра и уже можно минтить поинты.
    • Если так будет, то шансов на успех скорее всего будет не многовато, когда рынок может пойти на дно и даже Лаунчпад на Бинансе особо то не сможет помочь проекту. Хотя будет надеяться на то что всё пройдёт хорошо и после халвинга не будет сильный спад рынка.
    • Из-за чего про них будут помнить ещё несколько сотен тысяч пользователей, которых они не хило кинули. А всё могло быть иначе, если разработчики распределились с дропом получше как и вообще самим листингом токена.
