i just click on my profile here and voila, i also remember that it start with 1AR

i planned to remember it enterely but it's difficult, and anyway wat's the point, you can do faster by copy-pasting instead of writing

I use many addresses for different transactions. So I do not remember any of the addresses.

Who would remember their own address, it's very difficult for most person.
But, i still can remember long vanity address such as 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE  or 1111111111111111111114oLvT2. But, it take years to make those vanity address.

I'm sure most bitcoiner open their wallet or see notes to see their own bitcoin address Roll Eyes

I don't need to remember my whole bitcoin adress, it's already hard enough for me to remember all my different password ,)

I'm not sure if anyone remembers the first 10 characters of his address Tongue

Why would someone do that? Except if he wanted to be a human wallet?

I don't think we need to remember the whole bitcoin address. What I normally do is to remember the first 5 and the last 4  characters of it, to make sure I send the correct address to the senders, or send to the correct address. That is enough.

FYI, If you do remember first few characters of your bitcoin address,  blockonomics has a handy feature to search vanity addresses (supports prefixes of 4-10 characters).

Ok that sounds like a silly question, but what I mean to say is do you know it all, in your head - could you write down the full address with no errors?

I have several vanity addresses and of course know the primary details but not the rest, including upper / lower case and number sequences.

I have been thinking about this lately and just wanted to put it out there  Grin

i have a QR code on the back of my business cards..
easy to hand out and easy for recipients to scan.. rather then hand typing the lengthy address..

writing out the lengthy address is soo old school. something not really done in the 21st century of camera's or copy&paste.

but the other question you can ask.. does anyone know their entire credit/debit card number off by heart.. i think you will get the same low percentage of people saying yes


i use one credit card all the time to buy things online.. i have the numbers memorized.  actually several people i know, know their credit card number by heart.  it just saves time if you shop online alot.  and yes i know i should be buying everything with bitcoin not credit cards, but that time is just not here yet.

also theres no point to know your bitcoin address.. on the other hand if you could memorize your private key, thats a different story.

I don't remember by Bitcoin address but what I do know is the 1st 3 characters and last 3 characters. I don't plan to memorize the whole address as it will just be a reason to make a mistake when forwarding your address to someone.

My only static address is the sig.  It is one from when I first started in BTC. I do not have it memorized.

Well, I just got into the Bitcoin scene today, so I can say frankly that I had to write down my address as its too long to remember.
Hope my entry into this scene will prove profitable for me.. Wink

I don't even know my own mobile phone number because I never ring it. If someone asks me for it I have to get my phone out and look it up. As for bitcoin addresses I try to use a new one for each deposit, except for on exchanges that won't let you change your address. Those few exchange addresses are too difficult to remember so I have to be extremely careful verifying I'm sending to the correct address.

I remember first number. So I'm like others here, who will remember all this numbers, letters.. its a bit difficult. As someone said here before 20 years we had all phone numbers in head, now its problem to remember any number all is memorized. Anyway nice question, I'm curious is anyone here learned his address. I doubt there is such person, but I will watch this topic and check from time to time will someone like that appear.

I'm not sure if there would be much of a reason to... If I were relying solely on memory, I would be afraid of messing it up, anyway. It's nice to have something to crosscheck with.  Tongue

I know the first 3 and last 3 characters of my 5-10 most used addresses. There is an incredible number of addresses out there-- might as well use a new one for every transaction Cheesy

do you know it all, in your head - could you write down the full address with no errors?

I have many addresses too and I barely know the first two characters. I remember once got confused between two addresses that start with the same characters since i used to know the last char too.
