I don't really think so. Public key is public key while btc address is btc address. It's just like account number and transaction ID. Money can only be sent to your bank account but not  to your transaction ID because the id is the product of your transaction.

Yes, there is a difference between sending Bitcoin (BTC) to a wallet address and sending it to a public key. In practice, transactions are typically conducted using wallet addresses rather than public keys. Here's why:
- Wallet addresses are designed to be more user-friendly and are often presented in formats like Base58 or Base32, making them easier to read and share.
Public keys, on the other hand, are long and not user-friendly. Using public keys directly for transactions would be impractical for users.
- Directly using public keys for transactions might expose more information and could potentially be less secure.
- Different cryptocurrencies and wallets may use different public key formats, while wallet addresses are generally standardized within a specific cryptocurrency.
In summary, while both wallet addresses and public keys are interconnected, using wallet addresses is the standard and recommended practice for sending and receiving Bitcoin. Wallet addresses provide a user-friendly and secure way to transact, while public keys are more involved in the cryptographic processes underlying these transactions.
