I was wondering if my Bitcoin address remains the same every time I use it or does it change? I want to know if I can use the same address repeatedly for transactions or if I should generate a new one each time.
Every time you receive a transaction involving Bitcoin and Bitcoin-based crypto assets, your address will change.

Crypto assets like Zcash (ZEC), Litecoin (LTC), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) follow the same rule. This means your address for these crypto assets will also update with each transaction.

For other types of crypto assets, such as Ethereum, XRP, and Stellar, the address remains constant. You can use the same address to receive multiple transactions of these crypto assets.

This difference in address behavior is due to the unique characteristics of the blockchain technology underlying each crypto asset.

Bitcoin transactions are designed to be public information. This transparency is a core principle of the Bitcoin network, ensuring that all transactions are verifiable and secure.
