  Custodial wallets ensure the security of digital assets by storing the private keys on behalf of the user. This means that the responsibility for keeping the keys safe lies with the custodial wallet provider. They typically use advanced security measures such as multi-signature authentication and cold storage to protect the assets from unauthorized access. Non-custodial wallets, on the other hand, give users full control over their private keys. This means that the user is solely responsible for keeping the keys safe. Non-custodial wallets often use encryption and secure backup options to enhance the security of the private keys and prevent unauthorized access.

  When it comes to the security of digital assets in the cryptocurrency industry, custodial and non-custodial wallets take different approaches. Custodial wallets, like those offered by some exchanges, hold the private keys on behalf of the user. This means that the user doesn't have direct control over their keys, but the wallet provider is responsible for their security. Non-custodial wallets, on the other hand, give users full control over their keys. This means that the user is solely responsible for keeping their keys safe. Both types of wallets can be secure if proper security measures are in place, but non-custodial wallets generally offer more control and privacy.
