What is Ontology (ONT)?
Ontology emerged onto the blockchain scene in 2017, crafted by OnChain, a Chinese enterprise led by Erik Zhang and Da HongFei. Already known for their success with the NEO blockchain, OnChain created Ontology to help businesses smoothly incorporate blockchain technology into their operations without overhauling existing systems.
What is an Ontology wallet?
An Ontology wallet is a digital tool for safely storing private keys associated with your ONT account. The cryptocurrency itself remains on the blockchain, but the wallet provides a way to manage these keys, enabling you to send, receive, and control your ONT funds. Above all, an Ontology wallet facilitates your interaction with Ontology’s blockchain network.
How does an Ontology wallet work?
Ontology wallets utilize pairs of public and private keys to interact with the blockchain. The private key must be kept secure as it grants access to your ONT funds, while the public key can be shared for receiving cryptocurrency. To withdraw ONT, the respective private key is necessary. Tangem Wallet, for instance, stores and generates private keys within its secure chip.
