Could you please clarify whether Trust Wallet securely stores my private key? I'm considering using it as a cryptocurrency wallet but I'm concerned about the safety of my funds. I've heard that private keys are essential for accessing my digital assets, so I need to ensure they are adequately protected. What security measures does Trust Wallet employ to safeguard private keys? Additionally, do they offer any additional security features that I should be aware of? Your insight into this matter would be greatly appreciated.
