Definition: A wallet address is a public identifier used by a blockchain to reference a destination or account for receiving or interacting with assets; formats differ by network.

An address can normally be shared for receiving funds, but sending to the correct character string is not enough if the wrong blockchain network is selected.

How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

Terenval displays receiving addresses within the selected network context and includes wrong-network safeguards for multi-network use.

Important: Verify the entire address or a reliable fingerprint of it and the network before approving a transfer.
