Clams (CLAM) address validator
Paste a Clams address to check its checksum and format and see which address type it is. Below: how CLAM addresses are built, an example, and the chains it can be confused with.
CLAM address format
- Legacy (P2PKH)
- Base58Check with version byte 137 (0x89); for example x….
- Script (P2SH)
- Base58Check with version byte 13 (0x0d); for example 6….
- Checksum
- Double SHA-256, as in Bitcoin.

Good to know
CLAM amounts use 8 decimal places: 1 CLAM = 10^8 base units.
Its SLIP-44 coin type is 23, so BIP-44 style wallets derive it under m/44'/23'/….
It is a proof-of-stake era coin whose transactions carry a timestamp field, so generic Bitcoin decoders misread them.

FAQ
- How do I check a Clams address is valid?
- Paste it into the checker on this page. It verifies the checksum and the version byte or bech32 prefix for Clams and says which address type it is, or why it fails.
- What does a Clams address look like?
- Base58Check (version byte 137 / 13). Try it with the public example xHKdGtUrM7kgi685hs6KtWNDZtDLY18RJU.
- Is it safe to paste my Clams address?
- Yes. An address is public. The checker only reads the string you paste; nothing is stored, and it never asks for a private key or seed phrase.
- How many decimals does CLAM have?
- 8. The smallest unit is 1/10^8 CLAM.
