Title: How to send bitcoin to a QR code on a PC? Post by: yenom on February 27, 2014, 04:07:45 PM I have electrum and Multibit wallets. If I want to send bitcoin to a QR code in an image, what's the best way? I don't want to do it on a smartphone because I don't have a smartphone wallet.
For example how do I send to this address from Multibit? http://media.coindesk.com/2014/02/IMG_7138-copy.jpg Title: Re: How to send bitcoin to a QR code on a PC?

Perhaps do the obvious test with whichever service you use that it's not throwing the same address for all images. Title: Re: How to send bitcoin to a QR code on a PC? Post by: f4tal1ty on February 27, 2014, 04:15:41 PM > https://blockchain.info/address/1Fkp2maqnjP24wjFy47sfMPGVGji7ybvPE

It's very easy to take a photo like that and cut and paste another's address. Healthy skepticism will help protect integrity. Should have a site in that sign for reference.

Looks ok, the adress on both pictures in the article are the same 1Fkp2maqnjP24wjFy47sfMPGVGji7ybvPE Title: Re: How to send bitcoin to a QR code on a PC? Post by: yenom on February 27, 2014, 09:01:56 PM I found another site using Google and compared the addresses, and then compared those to the one posted in here. I wouldn't trust one or two sites, would need three, or my own trusted QR code decoder.
