Public Key
A public key is part of a cryptographic key pair and is used in operations such as digital signing, encryption and authentication; It is usually stored in digital wallets and shared with other users.
A public key is part of a cryptographic key pair and is often used in cryptography operations to secure communications. A cryptographic key pair consists of two parts, the public key and the private key. A public key is a key that is known to everyone and shared with the other party of the communication. This key is often used in processes such as digital signing, encryption and authentication. For example, a user who wants to send a cryptographically secure message to someone would encrypt the message using the recipient s public key. In this way, an encryption process is carried out that only the recipient can decrypt with his private key. Public keys are stored in digital wallets and shared with other users. In this way, transactions such as sending or receiving digital assets can be carried out.
