Bitcoin donation fails

Recommended Posts

I can't get BTC donation to work. Electrum 2.9.3 says invalid lines found: Line #1: 1Q53Yrkodojr9Wgtuuljagy8Hzzmaefpvr

are you sure your Bitcoin address posted still works, or know what might be wrong?

 

I used to send bitcoin often but this is the first I've seen this error

It's because a bunch of capital letters got lowercased by accident...I just tried and my Coinbase account refuses it too.

 

Try 1Q53Yrkodojr9WGTUULJAgY8hZzMAeFpvr instead (and make sure you don't copy the space at the end...double clicking it to copy it on the forum adds a single space character to the end for some reason).

 

It's the same address but the capital letters are fixed. This is the value that's in the barcode. The forum attempts to prevent CAPS LOCK ACCIDENTS so it lowercased half the letters.

 

Be aware of the roughly $18 network fee...I'd recommend donating in XMR, ETN, or AEON instead if you can, since the fees are much lower on all of those.
