Could you elaborate on the functionality and operation of cryptocurrency wallets? As a novice in the field, I'm curious to understand how they store and manage digital currencies securely. Specifically, I'd like to know if they're similar to traditional bank accounts, and if there are any specific steps or procedures required to set up and use one. Additionally, I'm interested in knowing about the security measures incorporated into these wallets to ensure the safety of my digital assets. Thank you for your assistance in clarifying this matter.
