This isn't only for memory addresses. The $ is a general notation to
indicate that the subsequent number is in base 16. Same goes for binary
representation, which is denoted by %. Example: $50 = %01010000 = 80.
Besides, $50 is the same as 50h and %01010000 is equivalent to 01010000b.
However, the prefix notation is better in my opinion--it's easier to
recognise.
