3Bitcoin/Litecoin addresses are usually 34 characters. Monero is usually 95.Pieter Wuille 2017-10-13T17:14:36.490

Why don't you take a look at those coins addresses? If you are looking for someone to do that for you, so I think this should not be the best place to ask.Adam 2018-03-31T17:30:47.460

It does not seem to be a good idea to only differentiate between the "number of characters". Some addresses are alphanumeric (Bitcoin), others are only hexadecimal (Ethereum), others are only numeric (LISK)...


What I found out:

NXT has 24 characters (example: NXT-MT4P-AHG4-A4NA-CCMM2), only 20 without the static hyphens, only 17 without the static "NXT" in the beginning.

Lisk has 21 characters (example: 16118128613908223361L), only 20 without the static 'L' in the end.
