shywolf91 Posted March 20, 2021 ID:1446051 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Hi, today when I opened my btc wallet address for some transaction and I copied it and pasted it, the pasted address was different from original. After doing a quick search I saw similar issues reported on this forum and was wondering if someone could help me out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
