  When you buy crypto, the money you spend goes to the seller of the cryptocurrency. This can be an individual, a company, or a cryptocurrency exchange. The money is typically transferred electronically through a payment gateway or a cryptocurrency exchange platform. Once the transaction is completed, the purchased cryptocurrency is stored in a digital wallet, which can be a software wallet, a hardware wallet, or an online wallet provided by a cryptocurrency exchange.

  When you buy crypto, the money doesn't disappear into thin air! It goes to the person or entity that you're buying the cryptocurrency from. It's important to make sure you're buying from a reputable source to ensure the security of your funds. After the purchase, the cryptocurrency is stored in a digital wallet, which is like a virtual bank account for your digital assets. You can choose to store your crypto in a software wallet on your computer or smartphone, a hardware wallet for extra security, or even in a custodial wallet provided by a cryptocurrency exchange.
