On Ethereum and other networks that are compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), there is a standard format for public addresses.

These addresses all start with the prefix '0x'. This prefix serves as an identifier, letting users know that the address is intended for use on an EVM-compatible network.

Following the '0x' prefix, there are 40 alphanumeric characters. These characters include both numerals and letters, and they make up the main body of the address.

In total, each address consists of 42 characters: the '0x' prefix and the 40 alphanumeric characters that follow.

It's worth noting that these addresses are not case sensitive. This means that whether the alphanumeric characters are in uppercase or lowercase, the address will still be valid and functional.
