Title: Incoming adresses
Post by: Green Lantern on October 10, 2013, 09:15:09 AM
I have modified bitcoinj to some altcoin network. But I have a question. Why do coins receive from different adresses (I am using one client for windows with one adress to send coins). Is it also normal for bitcoin network?

I have no idea what you're doing. Please describe your whole setup, what you want to do, what you expect to see and what you're seeing instead.

Just one thing: Bitcoin does not really have a concept of from addresses. Some clients (including Bitcoin Wallet) try to display them for historic reasons, and they fail at it (sometimes).
