Public key

[danjelski]

So I carefully wrote down the list of words that comprise my private key. But I have no idea what my public key is. How do I find that out?

Your public key is the address that you send or receive from. It is found below the QR code. Additionally, if you go to Settings > [choose one of your wallets]> More Options> wallet addresses there you will see your addresses which are your public keys. You can go to various websites that show the blockchain and follow the path of the bitcoin. Each will have the public key associated with it. Your Private key is what allows you to spend and transfer the coins versus just looking at it on the blockchain, basically unlocks the public key.
