okay i will install LTC app on nano ledger a bit later.



Right now, i want to first withdraw some btc from a gambling site, and then deposit a small amount of that btc into another gambling site.  Privacy shouldn't be an issue when you do this right since its a gambling site and they have tons of customers who use btc then... would you agree?  Because i never thought about this when it comes to gambling sites.



When i connected my nano ledger s to my laptop and click on receive, i would then choose the bitcoin segwit account... its the default one.  When you click on dropdown menu, you see option of BCH account which i have BCH stored there.  Now when i click next when it is on the bitcoin segwit account and it shows my balance next to it, it then displays a btc receiving address that starting with the number 3.  So i have to look at the btc address on the laptop screen and on the nano ledger screen to verify it is the same address to verify.  What i then noticed was this btc receiving address that is displayed on both the laptop screen and the nano ledger screen, i seen this btc address many times and come to think about it, i might have used this receiving address many times.  The btc address i am close to positive i used this as a btc receiving address many times or almost every single time i received btc to my nano ledger.  So is that normal and default?  That is not good right?  But i only send and receive btc to my previous other wallets and gambling sites and exchanges and that is all.  Thus not to a regular person.



So by default, whenever you click on receive tab on ledger live and click on the btc account you name it, it always displays the same receiving address each time?  How would you generate a new btc receiving address?  Had thought nano ledger generate a new receiving address each time by default... but when i saw this receiving address, im positive i seen this address many times.



Also could i copy and paste that btc address showing on my nano ledger receiving address into blockchair and it would display how much btc i have in that address?  is it very likely based on what i mentioned, my entire btc balance is in this btc receiving address?  Now im not even sure if my nano ledger ever showed a receiving address different from this one each time i get btc received?  Can someone here clarify this?  But since im withdrawing btc from one gambling site to nano ledger and then sending tiny amount of btc to another gambling site, is there much privacy concerns?  Can't imagine they would care much at all?  Then again, the people who process the btc cashouts most likely do get get paid much at all.
