Hi all,

I've been mining for a while (with Phoenix) and have noticed that the Bitcoin client has somehow created two additional wallet IDs.

This is very strange to me. I have done nothing but mining so far.

Is this "normal" behavior? Is it a bug or worse, is it an indication that someone may have hacked my wallet?

TIA!

Bitcoin client generates new address after every transaction. So it's normal Smiley

While it generates new addresses, you can continue to use the old ones as well
