Types of wallets
- Software wallets: These are applications or browser extensions that manage private keys and interact with the blockchain. They are easy to use and available on both desktop and mobile devices.
- Hardware wallets: These are physical devices that store private keys securely offline. They are more secure, but less convenient for frequent transactions.
- Passkey-based wallets: These wallets use passkeys for authentication instead of traditional seed phrases. This adds another layer of security.

Wallets with coin type 118 use the Cosmos hierarchical deterministic (HD) derivation path. Sei’s address-association system still maps the same key to a unique EVM
0x... address.
