I am a Newbie and need your help as I want to know what Segwit is?
How do I get a Segwit address.
What do I need to do?
Segwit is basically a way of sending bitcoins while using less space then "normal" transactions, by replacing/removing (mostly) signature data, thus making them cheaper.
How do I get a Segwit address.
You can download
Electrum, and once launched it will prompt you to either create a "Standard" or "Segwit" wallet, choose segwit, and voila, there you have it.
What do I need to do?
Other then generating the wallet, nothing.
