dYdX Chain (DYDX) address validator
Paste a dYdX Chain address to check its checksum and format and see which address type it is. Below: how DYDX addresses are built, an example, and the chains it can be confused with.

DYDX address format
- bech32 with the dydx prefix
- A 20-byte account hash (RIPEMD-160 of SHA-256 of the public key) in bech32 with the human-readable part dydx (dydx1…). Other Cosmos SDK chains use the same hash with their own prefix, so one key has a different address on each chain.

Good to know
DYDX amounts use 18 decimal places: 1 DYDX = 10^18 base units.
Its SLIP-44 coin type is 118, so BIP-44 style wallets derive it under m/44'/118'/….
This page checks address formats only. It never asks for a private key or seed phrase. Want to know if an address still holds funds? Try find money (coverage is listed there). Lost the wallet app? See the recovery guides.
FAQ
- How do I check a dYdX Chain address is valid?
- Paste it into the checker on this page. It verifies the checksum and the encoding for dYdX Chain and says which address type it is, or why it fails.
- What does a dYdX Chain address look like?
- bech32 with the dydx prefix. Try it with the public example dydx1hsk6jryyqjfhp5dhc55tc9jtckygx0ep7rrf0a.
- Is it safe to paste my dYdX Chain 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 DYDX have?
- 18. The smallest unit is 1/10^18 DYDX.
