Could you elaborate on the concept of storing Bitcoin in a wallet? I've heard the term "wallet" associated with Bitcoin, but I'm not entirely sure what it means. Is a Bitcoin wallet simply a physical device, or is it more of a digital storage solution? How secure are these wallets, and what measures should one take to ensure the safety of their Bitcoin holdings? Additionally, how does one access and manage their Bitcoin stored in a wallet? Understanding these fundamentals would greatly assist in my comprehension of Bitcoin's storage and usage.

The wallet, on the other hand, is a tool that facilitates the management of Bitcoin. It stores the private keys that are essential for accessing and transacting with Bitcoin.
