Wallet Address

Most generally, this represents an External Owned Account(EOA) or a Contract that can receive (destination address) or send (source address) transactions to the blockchain. More specifically, it is the rightmost 160 bits of a Keccak hash of an ECDSA Public Key.

Generate Wallet Address

Generate Ethereum Address From Public Key function have 2 versions, where you can specify the Public Key either as an array of bytes or as a string. For the most use cases you will be using the Bytes Array version due to nature of other nodes outputs and simplicity of it.

Also you can generate an Address from a Public Key provided to you as a string.

Ethereum Address Checksum

Ethereum address checksum validation is a cryptographic function that allows users to verify their Blockchain addresses to ensure they are valid and don't contain any typos. Your Ethereum address well as every other Ethereum address in existence has two versions:

One includes uppercase letters called Checksummed, example: 0x07d6A8689F7f869c1B878B0A753980eAadb9379e
The other version is called Non-checksummed address, example: 0x07d6a8689f7f869c1b878b0a753980eaadb9379e

INFO

Generate Ethereum Address From Public Key always generates a Checksummed address.
