 ## Persistence
 
-To persist `Wallet` state data on disk use an implementation of the [`PersistBackend`] trait.
+To persist `Wallet` state data use a data store crate that reads and writes [`bdk_chain::CombinedChangeSet`].
 
 **Implementations**
 
-* [`bdk_file_store`]: A simple flat-file implementation of [`PersistBackend`].
+* [`bdk_file_store`]: Stores wallet changes in a simple flat file.
-* [`bdk_sqlite`]: A simple sqlite implementation of [`PersistBackend`].
+* [`bdk_sqlite`]: Stores wallet changes in a SQLite relational database file.
