How does Bitcoin get stored?

Riccardo Riccardo Wed Dec 18 2024 | 7 answers 2019
I'm curious about how Bitcoin, the digital currency, is stored. I want to understand the process or method used to keep it secure, considering it's not a physical currency that can be kept in a wallet or a bank. How does Bitcoin get stored?

This means that it is not controlled by a single entity or central bank.

When it comes to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies derived from it, the digital asset is stored and maintained in a unique way.
