## Protect Your Wallet

Unlike ordinary bank accounts or physical wallets, the crypto wallet includes three main components for protecting the funds and information inside.

* **Public key:** This is similar to the bank account number. You can share this key with anyone who wants to transact.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Private key:**</mark>**&#x20;** This is a secret key that must be protected. Anyone with this private key can fully control everything inside a wallet.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Seed phrases**</mark><mark style="color:red;">:</mark> This collection of 12 secret words must be protected. Anyone with secret phrases can fully control everything inside a wallet.
