An exchange crypto wallet is a type of digital wallet that allows you to store, trade and spend cryptocurrencies. Exchange crypto wallets typically have higher fees than other types of wallets, so it’s important to choose one that’s right for you. Some popular exchanges with crypto wallets include Coinbase, Binance and Bitfinex.

A decentralized crypto wallet is a type of digital wallet that does not rely on a third-party to hold your cryptocurrencies. This means that you own your private keys, and can control your own assets. Some popular decentralized crypto wallets include Ethereum Wallet, MyEtherWallet and MetaMask.

I personally prefer Decentralized Crypto wallets because they are easy to use when compared with the exchange crypto wallets and also cheaper in terms of fee and charges for transactions. Additionally, they are more secure than the other two types of wallets. However, I believe that decentralized exchanges are a better option for trading cryptocurrencies as they offer a more user-friendly experience. Overall, I think that both types of wallets have their advantages and disadvantages, which are dependent on the individual user's needs.

After clicking that button 2nd screen was
I read the terms and conditions, checked the box and clicked on the Continue button. Then i was shown a message to backup my Recovery phrase. And asked for a password. I entered my password twice for verification and the next page was where i was shown the Recovery phrase. I wrote this key on a page and in the notepad of my phone and laptop to save it for later uses.
The other screens doesn't allow taking screenshots so i cannot provide those. As the first screen showed the phrase that i copied and the next one had me verify the phrase for later uses. When i verified myself next was the success screen
