I know that we can create Multi signature adresses using Bitcoin Core but using commands on the console if I remember right , forgot what are the Commands but dosen't matter I can get them again ... However I want to know why when they console gives me back the adresses of Multisig that starts with "3" it dosen't get added to "Receiving Adresses" ? Shocked

Basically I should keep that adress somewhere ? and if I give it to someone is he going to be able to send me BTC or not ? all I have to do is keep it on a .txt file , give it to people and I will receive in my wallet just that simple ? cause it looks kinda weird whenI don't have it on my receiving adresses and i was wondering ... gracias amigos  Kiss

Mutlisig addresses start with 3 and no, it won't get added to 'Receiving Addresses'.

Basically I should keep that adress somewhere ?

You should save redeem script somewhere safe.

and if I give it to someone is he going to be able to send me BTC or not ?

Send him address starting with 3 you got and he will be able to send you BTC. Whether he/she sends BTC to you will depend on him/her. I can't answer that.

all I have to do is keep it on a .txt file , give it to people and I will receive in my wallet just that simple ?

You will have to save redeem script not only the address just like you save private key.

cause it looks kinda weird whenI don't have it on my receiving adresses and i was wondering ... gracias amigos  Kiss

Bienvenido!


I understood basically all of what you just said , only the "redeem script" that you just mentioned , what's that ??
I don't think I need to save it so I'am able to receive BTC right ? I need to save it just to not lose my BItcoin adress if I understood right ?

You need to save it to *spend* BTC from the address you create.

you dont own the multi sig address

Check out my coin Photon
Merge Mine 5 other Blake 256 coins - 6x your hash power  https://www.blakecoin.org/

The obvious choice is not always the best choice.

LOOK DEEPER - Look into the Blake 256 Family -- CC

I was able to add my multisig address on core with the watch-only feature. Obviously you still have to create a raw tx to spend, but at least you can see it in your wallet and have it in your receiving addresses.

Just add it as a watch only address. importaddress in your debug console. Type help in your console and look for the importaddress entry.

Code:
importaddress 3xy1fGmcTrropzz34acB6vuYn23 label
