Bitcoin P2PKH address
ID p2pkhaddr
DatatypeNot PIIidentifier
Legacy Bitcoin address of the pay-to-public-key-hash (P2PKH) type. It is the Base58Check encoding of the version byte 0 and the 20-byte RIPEMD-160 hash of the SHA-256 hash of a public key, so it always starts with 1. Most such addresses have 33 or 34 characters; each leading zero byte of the hash adds a 1 and makes the address shorter. Testnet P2PKH addresses start with m or n and are not matched.
