Address types

Monero addresses are what you publish/share to receive transactions.
Addresses can be generated offline, for free.

There are a few types of public addresses in Monero:

• Standard address - the wallet's primary address, often referred to as your "main" address.
• Subaddress - recommended address type.
• Integrated address - some exchanges, merchants, and other businesses accepting Monero may opt to use these instead of subaddresses.
