yes all the code snippets work
right now user inputs address and clicks submit and the input(address) is put into mysql
also the code for verifying if btc address is valid works
however i cant figure outhow to put this together into a working project
this is from the checkAddress function
the address variable is empty
$address = "";
$eth = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn,$_POST['address']);
so i dont know what to use here- do i need to change this to
$address = $eth;
$eth is actually $btc
