• Bitcoin Wallet - A Bitcoin Wallet is a software which implements basic BTC management functions such as generating and managing new receiving addresses, signing and sending transactions to the network, receiving transactions from the network, managing your addresses, reading and producing QR codes, adding up your unspent Bitcoin across several addresses and many other useful functionalities. Wallets may also offer security functions such as encrypting your keys so they can't be used in case the wallet files get lost or stolen.
• Paper Wallet - A paper wallet is a cryptocurrency wallet which has its public and private keys printed on paper. The keys can normally be read using a QR code. As long as you maintain the integrity of the printed paper, it's a very secure storage method due to its offline (air gapped) nature.
