in #bitcoin7 years ago

Many peoples still get missunderstood  about the different Wallet ID and Bitcoin Address, especially for newbies that never know about bitcoin. 

Wallet ID only used when you need to do login process and can't be be used as sending or receiving fund. look more closely you can see the different from the pictures below. look like same but it is totally different with Bitcoin Adress.

 

So, Where i can find my Bitcoin Wallet Address ? 

You can find your bitcoin wallet addres on Receive Button, depend of what kind of wallet did you use but almost the same. there is a wallet likes Xapo and Coinbase, you can use your Email Address for Login Process and to receive fund.  

Never share your Wallet ID to anyones! and  have a nice weekend!

Why I can't share my walet Id ???

because it can't be used to send or receive fund and for security reason . so, if you want to send or receiving fund then The Bitcoin address is the answer Not The Wallet ID (It's Different).

I understood that. But can someone stole coins with wallet ID ???

Yes, if you share including the password lol. hacker always had many ways to stealing your money.
