These wallets are available in a myriad of different forms and specifications. All of them are susceptible to various ways the attacker can exploit the vulnerabilities and steal money from victims. Cryptocurrency wallets create a unique field as they combine features of password managers, banking applications, and the need to keep their users and their transactions anonymous.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\" translation-block\">The authors collect the findings from previous literature to provide an overview of the different attack surfaces, possible countermeasures, and further research.
