What is a wallet address?

A wallet address is a unique identifier used to send and receive cryptocurrency on a blockchain network.
​
It works similarly to a bank account number, but for digital assets.
​
When you want to receive cryptocurrency, you must share your wallet address with the person or platform sending the funds.
​
Wallet addresses usually consist of a combination of letters and numbers and can also be displayed as a QR code for convenience.
​
It is important to always verify that the address is correct before making a transaction, as blockchain transactions cannot be reversed.
