What is a NIX wallet?
A NIX wallet is a digital tool designed to store private keys linked to your NIX address. It doesn't actually store the NIX coins themselves; they're stored on the blockchain.

Essentially, a NIX wallet facilitates the sending, receiving, and managing of your NIX assets.

Tangem Wallet securely generates and protects these private keys within its chip.
