I'm trying to understand the difference between Coinbase Wallet and a general web3 wallet. I know they are both used to store and manage cryptocurrencies, but I'm curious about their specific features, security measures, and use cases. Can someone explain the key distinctions between these two types of wallets?

Meanwhile, the device hosting your Web3 wallet stores the other half.
