Why are crypto wallet addresses so complicated? You may know that the www we are using on the internet is actually called a service named DNS. This is the acronym of Domain Name Service. So it means that you normally need to input a IP number that looks like 192.168.0.1 and then will get access to the website you are targeting. The reason why you can just put x(dot)com into your browser and still get Twitter on is because of this DNS server service. These servers are making sure that you can put x(dot)com into your browser and still sending you to the right IP address. ENS (from Ethereum) and BNS (from @BeldexCoin ) working the same way, but for wallets. You can transfer whatever you want without exactly knowing the right address but only the BNS on Beldex. But personally, I had always the question of privacy and services like BNS. Does it make sense to use a BNS called ALEXBaker.bdx to make it easier to send you assets in a private way? Sure. You may use this address to receive assets or send assets, but it will not be traceable to whom or from whom you are receiving assets. So using something private and still having an easy-to-remember wallet address can coexist.
