# Address

Readable wallet or contract address with truncation, copy-to-clipboard, and optional block-explorer deep link.

**Interactive playground** For isolated previews, theme switching, and sandbox editing, open [the Address playground on holydocs.com](https://holydocs.com/components/address).

## When to use

Use this component when blockchain context, addresses, chains, token math, or wallet onboarding must stay precise and scannable.

## Live Examples

Every example below renders the real component directly inside HolyDocs, followed by the exact MDX you can paste into a page.

### Contract Address

Contract docs usually pair an address with its deployment chain.



~~~mdx
<Address value="0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f2bD68" chain="ethereum" />
~~~

### Wallet Address

You can also render a wallet address without an explorer target.



~~~mdx
<Address value="0x8ba1f109551bD432803012645Ac136ddd64DBA72" />
~~~

## Props

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `value` | `string` | `--` | Full wallet or contract address to display. |
| `chain` | `string` | `--` | Optional chain key used to build the explorer link. |

## Usage

Start from this baseline shape and then tailor the copy, data, or nesting to the page you are writing.

~~~mdx
<Address value="0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f2bD68" chain="ethereum" />
~~~

## Tips

- Assume readers are one copy action away from using the value in production. Precision matters more than flair on web3 surfaces.
- Always make the target chain explicit when a component can imply a wallet, explorer, or transaction context.
- Use testnet examples unless the page is explicitly about production contracts or addresses you expect people to reuse.
