Do you want to resend coins you received automatically? There is a tool called CoinRelay. Ive been working on a step by step guide for it for a few weeks now. Not sure when I will finish though.

Post by: ranochigo on June 18, 2014, 08:24:20 AM Do you mean that you create a new BTC address for each of your customer and will automatically be sent to your storage address once recieved? I don't know of any feature like that in Bitcoin core. However, blockchain.info does provide this service for free. https://blockchain.info/api/api_receive

I dont think they are using a cron, because this feature is almost instantaneous. Are they modifying the Bitcoin daemon code to achieve this ?

They use walletnotify and blocknotify or at least start there. Its way better than cron because it eats less resources. Title: Re: How do I create a forwarding address using Bitcoin-QT ?

Title: Re: How do I create a forwarding address using Bitcoin-QT ? Post by: activebiz on November 30, 2014, 05:15:42 PM if u mean forwarding funds received on one address to another address, u can try using cron. I once used a script like this with an altcoin on an Ubuntu
using. /etc/crontab on Ubuntu ---- root /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/coin_forwarder actual script shall look like: $ cat /usr/local/bin/coin_forwarder #!/bin/bash if [ $(echo "$(testcoind getbalance) > 0" | bc) -eq 1 ];then testcoind sendtoaddress YOUR_NEW_ ADDRESS $(testcoind getbalance) "Comment to resender" fi It will check every minutes your coind balance and resend coins to YOUR_NEW_ADDRESS. for bitcoin u probably need to add the fee |
