**First post - Please move this post to the correct section if I posted in the wrong place**

I'm confused by the wallets and feel like I've found mixed answers around the web so I figured I would try my luck here.

  • Do I need to download a wallet for EACH currency I own/mine or is there an a downloadable wallet that holds multiple currencies?
  • If I delete a wallet from my hard drive do I lose all my coins or can I just re-download the wallet and get access to my coins as long as I have the address/password saved for the previous wallet?
  • Is there another good site/forum/place that would go into more details about wallets in general?

Thanks and sorry if there is a post here that already addresses the issues/questions...I just couldn't find it.

1. There are different kinds of wallets with different kinds of features. If you wanted a wallet that holds multiple currencies, try jaxx (not saying its the best though):
Android | iOS | OSX | Windows | Linux

2. You lose your coins if  you don't have a backup (using recovery phrases, private keys, etc). Make sure to back em up before storing your crypto.

3. This post explained it decently.
