This is a Bitcoin extended key, also known as an HD Wallet.
The public portion of the key is stored and used by CoinOS to generate a separate receiving address for every payment to your account. This prevents people from seeing transactions to your account other than their own.
The private portion of the key (displayed on the 'Key' tab) will not be accessible after you close this window. You are responsible for safely storing it and making copies of it, either by printing it out or saving it somewhere on your computer or online.
Encrypting the key with a strong password provides a safeguard against someone gaining access to a copy of the key. They will need to know your password to decrypt the key. Keep the password written down and backed up separately from the key.
IMPORTANT: We cannot reset your password. If you lose it or forget it, any funds sent to your account will be lost forever.
