"Invalid" Adresses

Thu Feb 09, 2017 6:41 pm

I have two bitcoin Wallets and both are saying invalid address when I try to buy Bitcoin's using credit card. I'm using Blockchain on my phone and I've used the same address 3 times before but now it's not working so I also downloaded Jaxx on my phone to try that wallet and it too says invalid address. Any ideas? I need Bitcoin!

Can you post those adresses? It's kind of hard to validate them if we don't know them ;)

bitcoin@bitcoin:~$ bitcoin-cli validateaddress 127rPB46hC9C8qK9BeCBig28nxxsYS8XWF
{
"isvalid": true,
"address": "127rPB46hC9C8qK9BeCBig28nxxsYS8XWF",
"scriptPubKey": "76a9140c43d804b283faae65b596e3fadadee27802820388ac",
"ismine": false,
"iswatchonly": false,
"isscript": false
}
bitcoin@bitcoin:~$ bitcoin-cli validateaddress 1EcXVXsJJEG5z5vpmoFdBDexd5Cy32LNy
{
"isvalid": false
}

In other words: the first one is valid, the second one isn't.
If a service rejects the first address, you should contact their support dept. If they reject the second one, they are right ;)

Hi.

First off, please make sure you're on the legit blockchain site. I've seen phishing sites that masquerade as blockchain in the past.

Second, please make sure you're sure about your addresses. Like the dude above me said, your second address is invalid. You probably dont want to lose your funds right? Mind telling us what wallet you're using?
