Do you know your own Bitcoin address?
I took me one month to memorize my personal Bitcoin address and right now I'm planning to memorize the private of the address just in case of unexpected circumstances.

I memorized the seed to my HD wallet.
That's all I need to open thousands of addresses.

When you have a dozen addresses to keep everything in memory becomes quite a difficult task. Modern gadgets are corrupting the user in some extent because we rely too much on them.
I remembered the first 4 and last 4 digits. This is very usefull for when entering your address for a payment receivement.
The same habit i have for sending payment. Then i double check those 8 digits and voila.. not ever did i sent to wrong address.

of course i cant remember my whole bitcoin address i would have to spend a lot of time in order to put it into my head i always have a qr code with me of my address to receive bitcoins
I know the prefixes (up to first 5 characters) of my most commonly used addresses,
that way I can recognize them fast out of a bigger pool/when digging on blockchain.
But full addresses or the ones I only used once/change addresses,
Nope. Why would I?

It is so difficult to memorise bitcoin address even if it was a custom address because it contains only random litters with upper and lower cases and numbers
I know only my first and last two litters in my address
I know only my first and last two litters in my address
i have a few adresses, but i only print the 3 first digits and the last 4 digits in my mind so i can recognise them when using each one that's dedicated for each their own use
If an address has a meaning by reading it then i would memorize it in my head.
But as bitcoin address are hard to memorize and have lots of different characters i don't know exactly.
To have it everywhere i might save it on the phone or in my physical wallet as a business card.

i have 10 different bitcoin address and never can remember it all but only few first character from my bitcoin address
Only the last letter of few of my adresses :>
Only the last letter I was hoping that everyone only look the beginning of the Bitcoin address.
For me I am trying to remember my first Baby (First Bitcoin address) that was my first why I started with Bitcoin.
Everyone should remember something about ther first Bitcoin what they have.
Even with my very first bitcoin, I could remember only the first (actually 2nd one) and last letters. Now I realize I mostly notice and confirm my addresses with these 2 letters when I submit on a faucet too.
If anyone share the need to remember a bitcoin address, I may try to do so. But I'm not sure how long it may be recalled exactly.
I have hundreds of bitcoin addresses. I tend to use a new address for every transaction.
No. I don't have any of them memorized. There would be no good reason to do so.

This ^^^
But I have about 20 odd addresses.
No point memorising public addresses. Maybe memorise a few private keys if you destroy the paper wallets but I wouldn't trust myself to remember them
Yes the original question was silly, but a very interesting thread ensued, for the record I do not remember my most used addresses but can recognise them due to some small character sequences, seems the same for a majority of people here. I did not think before that memorising the private key would be more useful, and far more difficult too!

I have many bitcoin address, every transaction is different, and I do not remember
Even if I had only one Bitcoin address I wouldn't know it letter by letter. But I have used hundreds of them already. Actually, oddly enough, some of them stick in your memory for some reason, not the exact address but rather an image of it.
I have so many bitcoin address,and of course i cant remember each one..but i can mark it in 3 final digit
But I do not have many bitcoin address, still I do not remember any of them other than first 3 characters and last 2 characters. I always copy paste for using them. I believe there is no benefit of remembering them.
Wait, what do you mean? Are you the same person?
I do not know, so I wrote it down on a notepad and put it in a safe place so that I can open it at any time
um... i think thats mnemonic passphrase That's totally different than bitcoin address, we can just copy and paste the address while the mnemonic is one time show only so you need to write it down
Anyway, i don't fully remember my address I only remember the 2 first words and the 2 last words of my address
Remembering that is completely useless because bitcoin address itself are made to be hard to be remembered
its really hard to remember bitcoin address because it have too many character and randomly generated but in this case my android memo was really useful
Obviously you right dude, We will able to memorize this big alpha numeric address Its hard to to remember as you said. Its silly question from thread owner But I can't able remember our all Bitcoin addresses. Like you even I am having separate notepad in my lap and mobile.. LOL. Jump to:
