No, Bitcoin addresses take the form of a public key consisting of 34 characters and beginning with "1", q.v. the addresses in my .sig below.

Webwallets normally offer a "deposit" option which will show the deposit address of the wallet. HTH.

OK, So my wallet hash is specific to my....wallet?   Ok so how do I get a bitcoin address then?  I thought the wallet was my address?  Ugh.

BTC=You bitcoin address?

LTC=your wallet?

OK, I went to the "scratch and win" BC site.  In order to play, you need to enter your BC address.  It says invalid.  So if my bC wallet is NOT my address then how do I get one?

That will really depend on what website you setup your wallet with.

So I should log in to my wallet account and just click stuff till I find where to get it?  Sorry man, this is why we are stuck in "newbie" thread for a while lol.

You probably would have gotten faster and more useful help if you would have mentioned what website you used to set up your wallet.  Glad to hear you figured it out.
