The Web Payments IG started out talking about "digital wallets" and
quickly moved away from the idea since a "digital wallet" can hold many
other things as Tim and Jorge point out.

There seems to be some sort of consensus around the concept of an
'account' and a 'ledger'. Those terms aren't as accessible to most
people was 'wallet', but it may be the right way to model these sorts of
things.

<Alice> <com:account> <Alice:#account1>
<Alice:#account1> <com:currency> "USD".
<Alice:#account1> <rdfs:label> "Party Money".
<Alice:#account1> <com:ledger> <Alice:#ledger1>
