If you’re new to crypto or real-world asset (RWA) investing, you’ve probably heard the term “wallet” — and wondered what it really means.
Don’t worry, it’s simpler than it sounds.
A crypto wallet is just a secure digital tool that lets you **store, send, and receive your assets** — like land-backed tokens, USDC, or other digital investments.
Think of it like your online bank account… but one that you fully control.
🏦 What a Crypto Wallet Actually Does
Your wallet doesn’t physically “hold” coins — it stores your **private keys**, which are digital codes that prove you own your assets on the blockchain.
When you buy a token like $PRPTY or receive dividends in USDC, those assets live on the blockchain — and your wallet is what gives you access to them.
Without a wallet, you can’t send, receive, or prove ownership of your tokens.
💡 Types of Wallets: Custodial vs. Non-Custodial
There are two main types of crypto wallets:
1. **Custodial Wallets** (like Coinbase or Binance):
– Managed by a platform.
– Easier for beginners, but the company holds your keys.
– If they freeze your account, you temporarily lose access.
2. **Non-Custodial Wallets** (like MetaMask or Trust Wallet):
– You hold the private keys.
– Only you can access your assets.
– If you lose your recovery phrase, your funds can’t be recovered.
At LandInvest.io, we recommend **non-custodial wallets** — they give you direct control over your $PRPTY tokens and dividends.
🔑 Setting Up Your Wallet (Step-by-Step)
Here’s how to set up a wallet in under 10 minutes:
1. **Choose a wallet app** — MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or Trust Wallet.
2. **Download and install** it from the official app store or Chrome extension.
3. **Create a new wallet** and securely save your *recovery phrase* (write it on paper, not in your phone).
4. **Add the correct network** (Ethereum or compatible chain).
5. **Fund your wallet** by transferring USDC from a CEX (like Coinbase or Kraken).
Once funded, your wallet is ready to receive $PRPTY tokens during the LandInvest.io Seed Round.
🪙 Why You Need a Wallet for Real-World Assets
Unlike traditional investments that live in a brokerage account, RWA tokens live **on-chain** — meaning ownership is recorded digitally and verifiably on the blockchain.
Your wallet is your **proof of ownership**. It shows that you legally hold equity in Land Invest Corp through the $PRPTY token.
That means you can:
– Receive quarterly dividends in USDC directly to your wallet.
– Verify ownership instantly on the blockchain.
– Securely transfer tokens (if permitted) to other compliant investors.
🌎 Wallet Safety Tips
Owning your wallet means owning your security, too. Follow these golden rules:
✅ Never share your private key or recovery phrase.
✅ Only download wallet apps from official websites or app stores.
✅ Double-check web URLs — phishing scams are common.
✅ Consider a hardware wallet (like Ledger) for large holdings.
Your wallet is your gateway to blockchain ownership — treat it like your most important asset.
🌿 The Next Step
Once your wallet is set up and funded with USDC, you’re ready to join the **$PRPTY Seed Round launching November 3, 2025.**
