2. Private Key: A private key function is to sign transactions and prove ownership of the funds associated with a TRON address.

3. Mnemonic Phrase: A human-readable set of 12 or 24 words from which your private key can be derived. It is used to recover your TRON wallet in case you lose access to it.

Note

Mnemonic phrases can generate multiple addresses, allowing users to have several accounts under one seed and a wallet can also hold multiple addresses, allowing users to manage multiple accounts from a single wallet application.
