.transfer() and .send() are basically deprecated now, with .call{value: X}() being the new recommended way to send X ETH wei to a recipient. Therefore, since .call works with both address and address payable, I assume this means that address payable is more or less useless at this point?

i don't get it address payable addr4 = payable(addr1);. why should i state payable on the variable and also cast the address itself to a payable address. what is the purpose of setting the variable as payble if the second one is what adds the functionality of transfer and send. thanks

Also, since Solidity 0.8.0, change msg.sender.transfer(x) to payable(msg.sender).transfer(x). Source: docs.soliditylang.org/en/v0.8.2/…

Note: Since Solidity 0.8.0, address literals such as address(0x8aB27....) have the type address instead of address payable

Note: Since Solidity 0.6.0, you can cast to address payable like this: payable(...)

I would ad that type address payable was added in Solidity 0.5.0, and prior to this release, address type worked as address payable.
