What is a wallet address?

A wallet address is a unique string of letters and numbers that tells the network exactly where to send your crypto—think of it like a bank account number for your crypto.

Every coin has its own specific address format, which helps you double-check that you're sending to the right place when making a crypto transfer.

Sharesies Crypto generates a unique wallet address for each coin and network you want to use.
