About HexoRama

A tool for validating and visualizing cryptocurrency address structures.

What is HexoRama?

HexoRama is a client-side cryptocurrency address debugger that helps developers and users understand the internal structure of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT (Tether) addresses. It performs instant validation and provides a visual breakdown of address components like prefixes, checksums, and encoded data.

Privacy First

All validation runs locally in your browser.

Instant Results

No API calls, no waiting.

Developer Friendly

Detailed structure breakdowns.

Supported Address Formats

Bitcoin (BTC)

  • • P2PKH – Legacy addresses (1...)
  • • P2SH – Script hash addresses (3...)
  • • Bech32 – Native SegWit (bc1q...)
  • • Bech32m – Taproot (bc1p...)

Ethereum (ETH)

  • • EOA – Externally Owned Accounts (0x...)
  • • EIP-55 – Mixed-case checksum validation

Tether (USDT)

  • • ERC-20 – Ethereum-based token (0x...)
  • • EIP-55 – Same checksum as Ethereum

USDT uses Ethereum's address format as an ERC-20 token.

BNB Chain (BNB)

  • • BEP-20 – BSC token standard (0x...)
  • • EIP-55 – Same checksum as Ethereum
  • • Known Contracts – WBNB, PancakeSwap, stablecoins

BNB Chain is EVM-compatible, using Ethereum's address format.

Understanding Format Score

The Format Score is a 0-100 rating that indicates how well-formed and secure an address format is. A higher score means a safer, more modern address format.

90+

Excellent

Modern formats with verified checksums (Bech32m/Taproot, EIP-55 checksummed)

70-89

Good

Valid checksums, modern standards (Bech32/SegWit, P2SH)

50-69

Moderate

Legacy formats or addresses without checksums (P2PKH, lowercase Ethereum)

<50

Poor / Invalid

Invalid checksums, malformed addresses, or unrecognized formats

Note: The Format Score evaluates the address format quality, not the trustworthiness of the address owner. Always verify addresses through trusted channels.

Note: USDT (Tether) on Ethereum uses the same address format as ETH (ERC-20 standard). This means USDT addresses are 42-character hexadecimal strings starting with 0x and support EIP-55 checksum validation. The same address can hold both ETH and USDT tokens.

Note: BNB Chain (formerly Binance Smart Chain) is EVM-compatible and uses the same address format as Ethereum. Addresses are 42-character hexadecimal strings starting with 0x and support EIP-55 checksum validation. The same address works on both Ethereum and BNB Chain.
