Title: cex.io as a wallet for mining? Post by: e64y2005 on November 25, 2017, 11:11:49 AM Hi all, I was thinking of using cex.io as an external
Wallet on nicehash. Is the btc address that they issue persistent or does it expire after A time. Sorry for such a noob question. 😬 Title: Re: cex.io as a wallet for mining?

All of my transfers in and out have used the same address. The problem you may run into is they use btc addresses that start with 3 instead of 1, so some pools may not support it.Wallet on nicehash.

Post by: Emoclaw on November 25, 2017, 11:19:10 PM Your cex.io Bitcoin address doesn't change. But I wouldn't recommend using it because its an exchange site and might not be as secure as dedicated wallet services such as blockchain.info.
I'd personally use an offline wallet like Bitcoin Core or Electrum. Hi all, I was thinking of using cex.io as an external I don't mine to cex.io, but I use them for trading.

If you want convenience, use Coinbase. They are also an exchange, but are much better for storing Bitcoin. If you don't want to store your Bitcoin with a third party, use a multisig wallet. Copay or Bitcoin.com provide good multisig solutions. It's like asking for your salary to be sent to your friend. Just put it into your own bank account. Title: Re: cex.io as a wallet for mining?

These would be vouchers for former mining shares? @OP: you dont need a complete wallet to recieve payouts from a mining pool. You could create BTC adress using a vanity generator https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Vanitygen At one time in the future you might want to sync the complete blockchain into a local bitcoin client and import these private keys. Keeps you from spending them to early, too. Title: Re: cex.io as a wallet for mining? Post by: SONG GEET on November 26, 2017, 04:14:58 PM Even if your deposit address there will change everytime you will receive payment, they might deposit any bitcoin sent to your old deposit addresses so it might not be a problem.
But I recommend you to either use electrum or blockchain.info wallet to have full control over your bitcoin. Title: Re: cex.io as a wallet for mining?

So who knows what that voucher is for. Title: Re: cex.io as a wallet for mining? Post by: LTU_btc on November 26, 2017, 11:47:37 PM It's not best idea to use exchange to receive mining payments. I saw many exchange warned users to not use their service to receive payments from mining. Don't know how about cex.io. But why you don't want use your Bitcoin wallet for it? No big matter which one - online like Blockchain.info, desktop like Electrum or hardware like Ledger, all of these are better to use than exchange.
