Bitcoin is the killer application of 'cut-n-paste'

Sorry for the silliness, but can you imagine crypto without it? Cue paranoid nightmare of checking everything ten times.

In fact... some malware that changed a random letter when you cut and paste any string longer than 12 characters could end us all.

Copy/Paste for now ..but that won't remain the primary method of capturing an address.

KryptoKit, a Chrome plugin for example, automatically extracts BTC addresses from within webpages and places them into a list to select from within the wallet. Or, it allows you to click on any address in a page and it will populate the address field in the wallet too.

That is great, thanks for telling me.

i was under the impression if you got a character wrong it would make the checksum invalid

Yes, that's correct, it's actually pretty hard to accidentally type in a valid address, and that should caught by any client before you send your coins to a black hole.
