Summary
In this chapter, we learned that Ethereum wallets make it easier for users to hold, send, and receive ether and interact with applications on the Ethereum network. We saw how different types of wallets are created to achieve their respective goals. It’s important to know that Ethereum wallets don’t work the same way physical ones do. We learned that Ethereum wallets hold ether but that ether is not stored in the wallet. What is stored are collections of addresses and keys. Holding keys and addresses allows users to apply digital signatures and make transactions.
The next chapter is going to be the concluding one and will summarize the previous chapters, and will also provide an overview of the future of Ethereum.
