Could you please clarify for me if having a Coinbase account automatically grants me access to a Coinbase Wallet? I'm a bit confused about the distinction between the two. Is the wallet functionality automatically integrated into the account, or do I need to set up a separate wallet specifically? It would be great to understand the relationship between the two and whether I need to take any additional steps to access my crypto holdings in a wallet format. Thank you for your assistance in clarifying this matter.

    However, for those seeking greater control and security, Coinbase also offers a standalone wallet app.

    For Coinbase customers, there are two primary types of wallets: hosted and self-custody.

    The Coinbase app itself, where users can buy and sell cryptocurrencies, offers a hosted wallet solution.
