Private Key
A secret cryptographic code that proves you own your crypto.
A Private Key is a unique cryptographic code
that gives you full control over your crypto wallet and funds.
It’s like the master key to your digital money.
Whoever has your private key can send or move your crypto —
that’s why it must never be shared or stored online.
Why it matters
- It’s what proves ownership of your coins on the blockchain
- Losing it means losing access forever
- Sharing it gives full control to anyone who sees it
Your wallet automatically uses your private key
to sign transactions — you never have to type it manually.
💡 Lanzo Tip
Keep your private key offline and encrypted (in a hardware wallet).
If someone asks for it — they’re not helping you, they’re hacking you 🔒
