Title: receiving several payment on only one adress possible ?
Post by: cpt.harluck on March 02, 2017, 12:23:13 AM
Hi,

is it possible to receive several payments on only one adress ?

Or is it necessary to create a new adress each time you want to receive a payment ?

Is the wallet doing this automatically ?


Does it create a new adress each time I do a payment ? I mean to stock the leftovers bitcoins ?


Thanks a lot :)

Hi,

is it possible to receive several payments on only one adress ?
Yes.

Or is it necessary to create a new adress each time you want to receive a payment ?
No, but it is recommended that you use a different address for each payment. Wallets will automatically give you a new address every time you request an address to receive Bicoins at.

Is the wallet doing this automatically ?
Wallets will track all addresses in your wallet, even if they have already been used. They will also give you a new address whenever you want to receive Bitcoin because it is recommended that you use a new address for each payment that you receive.

Does it create a new adress each time I do a payment ? I mean to stock the leftovers bitcoins ? 
Yes. That is called a change address. Every time you spend Bitcoin from an address and there is leftover (i.e. change) that has to be sent in another output of your transaction. Some wallets will send it back to the original address, but most will simply make you a new change address and send the Bitcoin there.

Totally agree, best use a new address, nowadays addresses can be easily tracked with several analytics tools.

Yes it's Possible to Recive Payments From Several Persons On a address and You Don't Need to Create Different Address Everytime for that and According to me Some Wallets Don't Automatically Create a New Bitcoin Address And you Need to Create a New Address in them Manually and If you Want to Be More Anoymous then You can Create new Address for Every Payment......
