Hi everyone, I wan to create an XMR altcoin account but a message provide me to use subadress but i don’t know what it is. When I enable it, it requiers “main adress” and “private view key”, I don’t know what these terms refer to. I alredy setup a way to receive XMR with XMR application on my Ledger… Please, can someone explain me the process of using subadresses with XMR ?
If you don’t know what subaddresses are, or aren’t you quite familiar with it, I don’t recommend you to use them.
It’s easy to screw it, or at least have a bad time trying to figure out why you don’t find in your wallet the XMR your peer sent to you.
This is what Bisq shows as docs to learn how to use it:
I’ve never used that myself, I have preferred to give a new main address by creating a new Bisq account, so I can’t give a lot of advice, but there are some traders using it.
I find important to be familiar with how to prove a payment, BTC buyers need to provide it in case of dispute.
