Thanks Abdussamad

Well about running multiple daemons on one server, I will skip that. Since an instance is so cheap I will run separate bitcoin and litecoin daemons and learn along the way. I will not run any ecommerce stores on servers running daemons and will keep them separate. 1x btc daemon, 1xltc daemon and 1x ecommerce store/database

I am exporting addresses to an ecommerce store database so when an address is dislayed in checkout it is stored and associated specifically for that customers order (a new address for each order). Having an address in the database allows the amounts and confirmations to be stored too so if there any disputes with customers they can be sorted out quickly. Also in some cases it will be important to give an address to a customer upon sign up without the need to create a payment request (or order).

Also having prepopulated addresses helps if there are problems connecting with electrum for any reason at least addresses are available while the issue can be looked at.

If I have it on demand (http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/merchant.html#) I think I have to have the ecommerce store and electrum on the same server?

I got the export of addresses to the database tables figured out. Just need to make a transaction to see if the confirmations get populated too.

Does anyone know if Electrum Litecoin uses the same file and folder structure as Electrum (bitcoin). I want to use the same files for addresses and confirmations export to database if possible. Can I do that without tinkering the code?

Ideally I will run 2 servers, one with electrum and another with electrum litecoin both exporting addresses to the same remote database (wallet_litecoin and wallet_bitcoin) but can electrum litecoin and electrum daemons run on the same server?

What is this? Why have "ask for a quote" for an exchange? And who on earth is there no demo? Looks like a very unprofessional site and outfit.

Apologies. Yes writing "wallets" instead of "addresses" was an oversight on my part.

I am seeing 20 addresses in my desktop wallet. I am seeing the same 20 addresses plus 6 extra addresses in my putty console for my ubuntu daemon after using the MPK.

If I generate extra wallets on my desktop, say for example make it 30 instead of 20 by using wallet.change_gap_limit(30). The putty command console command still shows the same 20 + 6 addresses no matter what I do (reboot, stop/start daemon, delete wallet and use MPK again etc).

Is this supposed to happen?

Agree. Their rates are much higher than Changelly.com

Abdussamad thank you so much for your help. I installed the Electrum daemon on an Ubuntu EC2 instance and restored the wallet using the MPK. The 'electrum' commands are so eay to use. Everything went smooth and everything is going well except one problem.

I generated 40 wallets on my desktop electrum wallet using: wallet.change_gap_limit(50)

On my instance when I use 'electrum listaddresses' in the command line it lists the first 20 addresses correctly in order and then ignores addresses 21-40. Instead it then shows a further 5 addresses, none of which are on my desktop wallet. Any idea why this happens? I stopped/restarted the daemon and alsorestored the wallet again but it shows the same thing.

On my desktop even when I reduce the wallet addresses back to the default 20, the instance daemon command line shows 20 identical to desktop wallet addresses and then those extra unknown 5 addresses.

Please advise if I am doing something wrong or if this is the way it is supposed to work.

Great information, thank you so much.

It seems the function of what I want to achieve are all available. The advantage here with electrum seems to be that instead of running a aws instance server with a massive HD for the bitcoin blockchain I can in theory run this on a nano instance for less than $5 a month. I will try and check it out this weekend.

As I never used electrum much was in the dark. Thank you for the help Abdussamad

I am listening to all offers. I know what rate they stopped trading and I know Cryptopia has not added it yet.

I will look in to this, thank you for the reply. In the end if it can be done then whichever is easier will be used but I will find it a struggle as I have never used electrum before.

As long as a new unique address is generated at the checkout whenever a customer wants to pay then it works. The balance will be sent to a desktop wallet after reaching a pre-configured amount. That is what I am doing using my python script for my bitcoind. I hope to replicate it with electrum.

They are fundraising like crowdfunding using cryptos. They are not having an ICO.

Bitmora is based in the US, operated by US citizens so if they operate an ICO or accept FIAT then they will have to conform to various rules and regulations that could mean financial penalties and even jail for those that fall foul of it. I doubt the S.E.C will give a small start-up accredited status so they only option they have is crowdfund using using cryptos.

Use Changelly.com in future. Their exchange rates are better than ShapeShift and their customers do not complain

yes it is alive

Please any advice?

What proof have you got this is a scam?

I am talking about for those with Kitteh stuck on exchanges such as Nova.

What happened to COL v2?

It's still on coinmarketcap

Are the wallets still syncing? Are people still using it if they didn't want the upgrade or missed it?

If anyone missed the Lynx swap their Kitteh is dead.

PM me if you want a chance to get your Kitteh back. My idea has probably not been tried before but just may work. In return I want to negotiate a large percentage of your MEOW if successful.

I am testing an ecommerce store that allows bitcoins as a form of payment. I successfully coded python and added it to a server running bitcoind. Whenever a customer gets to the checkout and chooses to pay using bitcoin a new address along with grand total on a qrcode is generated. The bitcoin daemon is pre-populating the database with 10 addresses. When the number falls below 3 the daemon generates and pre-populates the database to top up to 10 addresses again. Everything works but before exploring it further with a view to taking it live I would like to know about electrum. I heard of it but never used it.

If I run electrum on a server effectively can it do the same thing the bitcoind is doing? If I modify the python scripts can electrum generate bitcoin addresses and populate the database whenever the top is needed? If it can I prefer using electrum over bitcoind because the bitcoin blockchain is massive and takes several days to sync on an AWS instance. Electrum I understand is instant.

Please can someone with electrum experience give some tips. Thank you.
