Detailed Technical Explanation
A cryptocurrency address is a public alphanumeric string derived from the corresponding public key using cryptographic hash functions (such as SHA-256 and RIPEMD-160, or Keccak-256). Addresses function similarly to an email address or bank IBAN: they are safe to share publicly for receiving funds.
