I'm curious, could you explain to me the three primary categories of cryptocurrency wallets? I've heard mention of different types, but I'm not quite clear on the distinctions between them. Are there hardware wallets that provide additional security measures? Or software wallets that offer more convenience? And what about paper wallets - are they still relevant in today's digital age? Could you elaborate on the characteristics and uses of each type, please? I'm eager to understand the nuances and make an informed decision on which wallet would best suit my needs.
