Demystifying Public Key Cryptography: Exploring Ethereum, Digital Signatures, and Wallet Management

Ethereum relies on a powerful technology called cryptography, which uses math and computer security to keep things safe. Cryptography is more than just secret writing (encryption). It can prove knowledge of a secret without revealing it and ensure data is genuine. These tools are essential for Ethereum and other blockchain systems, and they are widely used in Ethereum applications.

Cryptography provides mathematical tools called cryptographic proofs. These tools allow us to show we know a secret without telling anyone what …
