I'm curious about something regarding
cryptocurrency security and convenience. Specifically, I'm wondering if I can reuse old bitcoin addresses on Cash App. With the ever-changing landscape of digital currencies and the importance of maintaining security, I'm hesitant to reuse addresses that I've previously used for transactions. However, the convenience of not having to generate new addresses every time I make a transaction is appealing. Could you provide some clarity on this matter? Is it safe to reuse old bitcoin addresses on Cash App, or is it better to generate new ones for each transaction?
