PHP Bitcoin validate from form

0 votes

I want to validate Bitcoin address from form. If someone enter invalid address it should echo "Please enter valid address". If address is valid, script should add this to database. I have this code. I only need validate function.

      <form method="post" action="index.php">
        <input type="text" name="address" placeholder="Address">
        <input type="checkbox" name="terms"> <label for="terms">I'm accepting the <a href="#terms">terms of use</a></label><br>
        <input type="submit" value="Submit">
      </form>
      <?php
        if(isset($_POST['address']) & isset($_POST['terms']))
        {
            include 'connect.php';
            $address=$_POST['address'];
            $date=date("Y-m-d");
            $request="INSERT INTO bitcoin (address, date) VALUES ('$address','$date')";
            mysqli_query($connect, $request) or die ("Error while writing to database! Try again...");
            mysqli_close($connect);
          }
       ?>
