Invalid BCH addresses #7003

Closed dmaybris closed 6 years ago

dmaybris commented 6 years ago

I cannot send my BCH to my wallet because I am told the addresses are invalid. No problem with BTC only BCH. Have tried generating new addresses but still the same. Can you help?

Hi ! take a look at this https://github.com/bitpay/copay/wiki/COPAY---FAQ#sending-bch-shows-error-please-enter-a-valid-address

If you need to send to "old" addresses, and you are SURE those are BCH addresses, you can "translate" them using the BCH Translator tool: https://bitpay.github.io/address-translator/

I wanted to bring my bch coins from luno but now my wallet of bch are interpreted as invalid

gabrielbazan7 commented 6 years ago

Yes. Copy you Copay Wallet address and paste it on the tool. Then use that address as recipient for your transaction.

Please provide me with the tool is it available for mobile?

You could also write this on the recipient field bitcoincash:destination_address. for example :

bitpay_-_secure_bitcoin_wallet

so the address translation is done directly from the app.

That worked. Thanks gabrielbazan7
