Title: How to get the QR of an address in Core? Post by: neurotypical on November 04, 2015, 02:54:57 PM I have never needed this before but I would like to know how can I get the QR code of an address in Core. Namely, I want to send some BTC to a friend and my friend has a Mycellium wallet. How do I make it so that he can scan my address instead of typing it manually? I just can't find a way to show address in QR format to send, only to receive.

That means that you have to get the Address on your friends mycelium wallet, to your PC. I personally use http://sourceforge.net/projects/zbar/ which is not the best software, but good enough(I just used it some times for my paper wallets). But since your friend uses a Smartphone, why not just send the address via E-Mail? Title: Re: How to get the QR of an address in Core?

So you can send a link like this: bitcoin:1JHE1qU5S8ryc5xJx3UXvXA4Ei2phArEM7 (bitcoin:1JHE1qU5S8ryc5xJx3UXvXA4Ei2phArEM7) Title: Re: How to get the QR of an address in Core?

That's it, you find the QR code of that address (to right) ::) |
