the plugin generates random btc addresses on checkout which dont belong to me

  • I got the MPK from my electrum wallet and successfully added in the plugin configuration. When I tried to test the transaction it was asking me to send the payment to a btc address which was not in my wallet. Still I tried to test it with a small amount and it was gone, I dont know who received it but I didnt get anything in my wallet? This is scary… why is this happening. Electrum version 2.5.4

  • its likely just not shown in the display but it is there.

    Try to set ur gap limit in electrum to a higher value so that it displays more of ur addys.

    u know how the addys disappear when an old addy has had a transaction go thru it? then its replaced by a fresh addy in the display.

    well, thats kinda what is happening to u most likely. again, all the addys are there, its just not displayed yet because electrum only shows the first 5-10 by default.

    increase gap limit to 20-30 addys.

    I have the same issue…it generates an address which does not belong to me. I have set the gap limit to 200 and still not visible.

    All works fine. You will find your address in Electrum addresses section. Stop scary people. I see all my addresses as well. When the payment will be received this plugin will give another YOUR wallet address.

    Blockchain API works well to. It generates other bitcoin wallet address too. (Havent seen it in blockahin profile) but it works.

    Just say thanks to the author and stop panic.

    It has 1 problem only. Order has no timeout…
