Address
Definition
In the crypto market, an address is the unique identifier of the digital wallet where a user stores their crypto assets, which allows crypto transfers to be sent and received.
They are unique strings of characters, or codes that users use in the crypto market to identify where they store their digital assets. A wallet address is used by users to receive, send or store cryptocurrencies. These addresses are typically generated automatically when a crypto wallet is created and are used to identify where a person's crypto assets are stored. Wallet addresses are shared with other users or trading platforms when they want to receive or send their assets, ensuring the traceability of transactions on the blockchain and ensuring the correct routing of crypto assets.
