0x147C

0x147C is a hexadecimal numeric literal that begins with the 0x prefix, a common convention in many programming languages to denote base-16 values. The four hexadecimal digits 1, 4, 7 and C form the value 0x147C, which equals 5244 in decimal. The 0x prefix signals to the compiler or interpreter that the following characters should be interpreted as a hexadecimal number.

In blockchain contexts, values starting with 0x are widespread for addresses, transaction hashes, and data. However, a valid Ethereum address is typically 40 hexadecimal characters after 0x (20 bytes). On its own, 0x147C is not a complete address. In practice, you might see it as part of a longer address, as a numeric parameter in a contract call, or as a truncated display in logs or user interfaces.

In software development, 0x147C can be used as a constant in code. For example, JavaScript and Solidity both parse 0x147C as the decimal 5244. It may appear in bitwise operations, masking, or as an input to functions that expect a numeric value.

Without context, 0x147C could also be interpreted as a code point in some hex-encoded systems. In that sense, the value represents an abstract numeric identifier rather than a standalone blockchain or scripting construct.
