I'm curious about how to securely store my cryptocurrency. Could you please explain the different options available and the pros and cons of each? I've heard about hot wallets and cold wallets, but I'm not sure which one is right for me. Additionally, I'm interested in knowing about the importance of private keys and how to keep them safe. Could you also elaborate on the risks associated with storing crypto and how to mitigate them? Thank you for your help.

The public key serves as your address, allowing others to send crypto to your wallet, while the private key is your unique password, enabling you to access and spend your funds.
