What is Ethereum Name Service (ENS)?
The Ethereum Name Service, abbreviated as ENS, is a decentralized and open name service system situated on the Ethereum blockchain. Its fundamental role is to translate human-friendly names such as 'alice.eth' into machine-readable formats, including Ethereum addresses, other crypto addresses, content hashes, and metadata. Additionally, ENS facilitates reverse resolution, enabling the linking of metadata, like canonical names or interface descriptions, back to Ethereum addresses.
What is an ENS wallet?
An ENS wallet is designed to store private keys, which allow users to interact with their ENS addresses. The cryptocurrency itself isn't stored in the wallet; rather it lives on the blockchain. The primary function of such a wallet is to generate and hold these private keys, granting access to a user's ENS accounts. Essentially, an ENS wallet is a management tool for sending, receiving, and organizing ENS.
How does an ENS wallet work?
ENS wallets leverage private and public key pairs to govern blockchain accounts. The private key is crucial for securing access to an ENS account and must remain confidential, while the public key can be shared to receive ENS. To move funds, the corresponding private key must be used. Tangem Wallet offers a solution by generating and securely storing private keys within its secure chip.
What are the types of ENS wallets?
