* Those different types only refer to what they're intended to be used for. A deposit address is exactly the same as a wallet address except a deposit address is intended for deposits (maybe an exchange display such an address) and a wallet address is one that's from a wallet. Donation addresses are intended to be used for donations. They're all just bitcoin addresses. [[User:Belcher|Belcher]] ([[User talk:Belcher|talk]]) 14:56, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
