For context, see the CAIP-10 specification.
Rationale
The address of a StarkNet account is represented by an element of a field, whose maximum
value is slightly less than 2**256 - 1. Because of this, 32-byte hex representations of
these addresses always have a leading zero.
Syntax
Like on Ethereum, StarkNet addresses begin with 0x followed by 64 hexadecimal characters
representing the zero-padded address number, totaling 66 characters.
It’s recommended to checksum the address using capitalization according to EIP55, as is common elsewhere on EVM systems.
Test Cases
# StarkNet mainnet alpha (valid/checksummed)
starknet:SN_MAIN:0x02DdfB499765c064eaC5039E3841AA5f382E73B598097a40073BD8B48170Ab57
# StarkNet mainnet alpha (may not validate in checksum-conformant systems)
starknet:SN_MAIN:0x02ddfb499765c064eac5039e3841aa5f382e73b598097a40073bd8b48170ab57
# StarkNet goerli alpha
starknet:SN_GOERLI:0x02DdfB499765c064eaC5039E3841AA5f382E73B598097a40073BD8B48170Ab57
