# 1.3. Pirichain Wallet Structure
Pirichain generates a private address (public key) and private key (private key) for each user. This address method is based on Elliptic Curve Asymmetric Encryption (ECDSA), a set of RIPEMD160 and SHA256 algorithms. The flow chart is shown in Figure 1.2

Another important value in the wallet is the private key. In case of loss of private key, all asset(s) in the account will be lost. And it is not possible to add new information belonging to that address. In Pirichain, the private key is translated to 24 phrases via BIP39 (Walker, 2020) word deterministic translation module. The Pirichain system allows phrases to be created in 7 different languages (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese). This forces mnemonic words to be saved in an external location Pirichain As seen in the BIP39 flowchart in Figure 1.3, the randomly generated entropy (randomness collected by an operating system) is found and the process continues (Walker, 2020).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://whitepaper.pirichain.com/pirichain-infrastructure/pirichain-infrastructure/1.3.-pirichain-wallet-structure.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
