Different types of addresses are necessary to suit the various tasks users need to complete.
For example:
Sometimes, a user needs an address just to monitor a balance.
Other times, a one-time can be required for a specific purpose.
In some cases, a permanent address is necessary for ongoing use.
For operations directly on the blockchain, special might be required.
Each task requires a specific type of address to handle it effectively.
Walletium ecosystem is built around three main types of addresses—, , and —which are central to how the system works. Let’s start with a general overview, beginning with the addresses as its key elements.
A crypto address is a unique identifier on the , similar to a phone number or email address but with one key difference: it is fully and accessible only by the person with the corresponding private key. A wallet can contain multiple addresses, each potentially holding different types of assets. Within a wallet, you can manage all associated addresses and their respective assets.
So each address in your wallet has 2 main parameters - blockchain and key storage type.
Public Address A public address is a string of characters typically ranging from 26 to 42 characters, depending on the blockchain. It’s safe to share since it only allows others to send funds, not access them. The public address is derived from the private key and exists on the blockchain as a destination for your assets.
Private Key The private key is a randomly generated, 64-digit hexadecimal number that gives full control over the wallet's assets. Whoever holds the private key owns the associated address and, therefore, the funds it holds.
The private key generates the public key, which is then used to create the public address. The public address is shared to receive crypto, but only the private key can unlock the assets. This ensures that while anyone can send you funds, only the person who owns the private key can manage them.
