Hello, I've managed to accumulate several bitcoins and have been reading and reading to try and understand how to get them from my account at BTC Guild to my Bitcoin wallet.  I must have done something wrong because when I request a payout from my account it says "Send My Balance To <address>" as you can see in the following image

However, the addresses shown in my bitcoin wallet are different and I don't see a way to add the address from my account at BTC Guild to the wallet:

Sorry for cutting the right edge off of each image - I don't know if I'm supposed to show wallet addresses or not  Roll Eyes

I really just wanna cash these things in so I can do something with them!

Is there no way to update your Bitcoin address in the settings?

Thanks for the link!  It doesn't give me a chance to enter a different address - when I click on change wallet address I get an error message "Wallet address entered was already assigned to your account."

Sorry, I guess that last post was a question.  How am I supposed to change the address in my account's settings when it won't let me?  The minute I click that change button, the error message appears. Huh

nevermind.  I didn't realize the field to the left of the change button was editable.  I pasted the address in my wallet into that field and clicked change and it worked fine D'oh! (where's the facepalm smiley?)

You can show address to anyone - it's the very idea of bitcoin. But closing your API key was definitely good idea!

Whenever you want someone to send you money you need to give them your wallet address. It's fine to share the address.
