How to store Alpha Finance Lab?
Storing Alpha Finance Lab and other digital assets requires a wallet, but don’t worry: Bitvavo’s hosted wallet allows you to store Alpha Finance Lab without any technical knowledge. Here is a brief overview of the existing wallet options to store your Alpha Finance Lab:
Hosted Wallet
Hosted wallets are wallets where the private keys to your Alpha Finance Lab are managed by a third party such as Bitvavo. Access to your account is protected by a password and other advanced security features. Once you are logged in, you can easily and conveniently manage your Alpha Finance Lab online. Bitvavo offers standard hosted wallets for all digital assets that are offered on the platform.
Software wallet
A software wallet is a program installed on your computer or other device in order to use and manage your Alpha Finance Lab. Using a software wallet gives you full control over your private keys, so you are not dependent on third parties. The risk is that you alone are in charge of the security of your Alpha Finance Lab, and if malicious parties have access to your device, your private keys (and therefore your Alpha Finance Lab) can be stolen.
Hardware wallet
A hardware wallet is a physical device on which you can store your Alpha Finance Lab offline. It is one of the safest ways to store your Alpha Finance Lab, because the private keys are stored on a separate and offline device. Access to this device is often protected by a password. In many ways, a hardware wallet can be compared to a safe in which your Alpha Finance Lab is stored.
You can use Bitvavo's hosted wallet to easily store, send and receive Alpha Finance Lab. Once you have purchased Alpha Finance Lab on Bitvavo, you can choose to send your Alpha Finance Lab from your Bitvavo wallet to your own software or hardware wallet.
