    Once you purchase a token, it is typically transferred to a digital wallet. A digital wallet is a secure online storage where you can store your tokens. It acts like a bank account for your tokens, allowing you to send, receive, and manage them. Digital wallets can be software-based (such as mobile apps or desktop applications) or hardware-based (such as physical devices). They provide a unique address for each token, which is used to identify and track your ownership.

    When you buy a token, it goes into your account on the exchange where you made the purchase. The exchange holds your tokens on your behalf until you decide to withdraw them. It's important to note that when your tokens are held on an exchange, you don't have full control over them. If the exchange gets hacked or goes bankrupt, there is a risk of losing your tokens. Therefore, it's recommended to transfer your tokens to a secure digital wallet that you control.

    When you buy a token, it is stored in a smart contract on the blockchain. A smart contract is a self-executing contract with the terms of the agreement directly written into code. It acts as a decentralized escrow, holding your tokens until certain conditions are met. The smart contract ensures transparency and eliminates the need for intermediaries. Your ownership of the token is recorded on the blockchain, providing a permanent and tamper-proof record.

Your wallet can be a software wallet, such as a mobile app or a desktop application, or a hardware wallet, which is a physical device. The token is associated with a unique address in your wallet, which is used to identify and track your ownership. It's important to keep your wallet secure and backup your private keys to prevent the loss of your tokens.
