First of all there's so much confusion i.e., Private key and Public key shit on the internet. I mean thats not shit but I just meant to say all the crappy elements that are assumed by almost everyone to teach how this private and public key thing works.

Its called Assymetric Cryptography. Thats actually something you can digest easily 🤫︎ before learning anything about it I guess.

First of all think about this, consider we have two types of locks say LOCK A 🔐︎ i.e., which has a key and second lock LOCK B 🔐︎ which has a locking key and a unlocking key.

LOCK A can locked and unlocked with its key obviously.

In LOCK B, the locking key is known as Public key, and the unlocking key is known as Private key.
