I'm wondering if my Bitcoin address can change. I know it's a unique identifier for receiving Bitcoin, but I'm curious if it's possible to alter it in any way.

Crypto assets like Zcash (ZEC), Litecoin (LTC), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) follow the same rule. Your address for these will change upon receiving a transaction.

On the other hand, for other types of crypto assets, such as Ethereum, XRP, and Stellar, the address remains constant.

This means that for these crypto assets, you can use the same address for multiple transactions without needing to generate a new one.

Bitcoin transactions are public information. This means anyone can view the transaction details on the blockchain.
