🔑 Keys Management

The secure handling of keys in the Perpetual3 environment is central to maintaining both the integrity of the platform and the privacy of its users.

Here's how keys are managed:

1. Crypto Wallet Keys: These keys are managed by the merchant's preferred crypto wallet app. They act as the foundation of a merchant's identity on the platform, linking their activities to their secure crypto wallet.

2. Ed25519 & X25519 Key pair: Managed in-memory when web app is used. For quick and secure access even after memory resets, these keys are stored on the local DB encrypted with a user generated PIN. On native apps, the user's keys are securely stored in the Android Key store or KeyChain on iOS and are loaded in-memory when needed.

While Perpetual3 supports usage across various platforms, we strongly recommend our users to use the native applications on iOS, Android, and MacOS for the most secure experience.

Web browsers, while convenient, do not provide the same level of secure storage that native applications can offer.

Therefore, for optimal security and the best protection of your valuable data, we encourage you to use our native applications. It's just one of the many ways we strive to keep your business secure in the world of Web3 commerce.
