How to get legacy address for BSV

[Malvika_sitlani]

Recently I have created one order from eth to bchsv and my order got failed because the exchange is not supporting 'q' addresses and they ask me to provide a legacy format of BSV address. Can anyone suggest me how can I get a legacy address?

Try to convert your q-address to legacy address here https://cashaddr.bitcoincash.org/

Thank you, I have used the link you have shared and the address converted to legacy address which starts from some number so now can I provide that address to the exchange right?

Yes. And if you want to be 100% sure, search for the legacy address in a block explorer (e.g https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-sv/address/ADDRESS-HERE) and see if the balance and transaction history matches with your address with the CashAddress format.

I just want to add this other tools alternative from the above post and to make sure the tool above has the same result as these two tools below.

Another address converter:

- https://bitpay.github.io/address-translator/

I have used one more converter here it is: https://www.better-converter.com/Crypto-Currency/BCH-Cash-Address-to-Legacy-Address
Convert your address by using any of the converters but just make sure that it returns the same address and use accordingly.

Thank you all for the suggestions. Finally, I have converted the address to a legacy address and received my coins successfully in my wallet.
