ChainID & Address Prefix
ChainID is a number that identifies a specific blockchain. This number is used to ensure that transactions are processed on the correct blockchain, and not confused with transactions on another with a similar format. ChainID also prevents replay attacks, where a transaction is broadcast on multiple blockchains to trick users into accepting the same transaction on different chains.
Address format is used to identify unique users within a blockchain network.
