I just realized something obvious about crypto wallets ????

I just realized something that will probably seem obvious to a lot of people here.

When I first got into crypto, I thought my wallet was tied to a specific app.

Then I realized that with a non-custodial wallet, my seed phrase doesn’t belong to the app itself.

If one wallet app disappears tomorrow, or if I find a better one, I can simply import my seed phrase into another compatible wallet and still access my funds.

In hindsight, it’s completely logical because crypto is decentralized, but it took me a while to fully understand it.

Did you know this from the beginning, or was it a realization you had later on too?
