Does anyone have an updated solution for this matter? How to extract the normal form of a BTC adress from the
I have the same problem, does anyone have a solution?Code:
bitcoin:?r=https://bitpay.com/i/TXID
form?Enter your bitpay URL at https://decoder.bip70.org to get a normal BTC address to pay to. Remember to pay transaction fees on top of the amount given.
I also think that BitPay is doing the wrong thing by putting pressure on the "old way" of sending BTC....

Thank you for the clarification comrade Foxpup! The problem is i'm not ussing TOR, just opera browser! But still, cloudflare service pops up each time i try to reach their site.
To fix the problem i foud it easier to copypaste the invoice ID into the noscrypt link :
https://bitpay.com/invoice-noscript?id= (YOUR ID)
Example :
let s say you copied this invoice :
bitcoin:?r=https://bitpay.com/i/T8qnej63zHSwNLKtmurLKx
your ID is T8qnej63zHSwNLKtmurLKx.
Result : https://bitpay.com/invoice-noscript?id=T8qnej63zHSwNLKtmurLKx
You should then be able to see the adress and the amount to pay.

Re: Bitpay Generating Invalid BTC Address (URL addy) Any Ideas?
I got an email from a service that uses Bitpay as a payment processor... and they indicated that Bitpay now require you to use a wallet that supports the "Bitcoin Payment Protocol"... it is an attempt to stop people sending to the wrong address, or not sending enough BTC (because their wallet subtracts fee rather than adding etc)
refer: https://blog.bitpay.com/payment-protocol/ and https://support.bitpay.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005559826
There IS a way around this... but it's a bit of a "hack"... You'll need to have Electrum installed (https://electrum.org/#download)... it will register the "bitcoin:" URL handler... so, in the Bitpay dialog, click on the "address" tab, get the URL and then copy/paste that into your browser, it SHOULD open up Electrum and will setup the outgoing transaction, like this:

you can then "right click" the invoice at the bottom and select "show details"... and you should see something like this:

PROTIP: If you don't want to type the address out by hand, you can click the "preview" button to see the OUTPUT addresses... just double click the one listed on the "show details" screen and then right click and "copy"
NOTE: you do NOT need to have any funds in the Electrum wallet for this to work, it'll just say "not enough funds", but you'll still be able to see the details of the request and the payment amount and address to send to.

I am confronted to the same problem as TS : to pay an invoice from bitpay i used they own wallet since they decided to use the bitcoin:?=URL format. But today even BitpayWallet doesn t work for me. So i decided to download electrum, and copypasted the URL given by the invoice into the PayTo field - it keeps telling me the same message : "payment URL not pointing to a valid server".
Any ideas on how to fix that? Or maybe really it s a problem on BitPay side?
Because as i understand from reading the code (https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/master/lib/paymentrequest.py ) and comments -
of the coders, it s the message u get for trying to put an invalid format of adress (# Guard against `bitcoin:`-URIs with invalid payment request URLs).
Can anyone try to open this invoice on his end (just like HCP showed) in a wallet that supports this format?
Here is the invoice : bitcoin:?r=https://bitpay.com/i/T8qnej63zHSwNLKtmurLKx
Hello world.
I am a blockchain enthousiast who ordered 8 antminers from bitmain, they came this week to the customs of my country. In about 2 weeks i m finally gonna install my equipement (the place is all set up).
As i am new to all this, i would really like to have some advices. I even may do a full report with pics and all of the overall process of mounting this little operation.
So the 2 main questions that ask themselves are :
1. The miners costed a little fortune, so the primary objective naturally is to get back the invested money, right? How to do that? SHould i mine BTC or any other altcoin with SHA256 alogo?
2. If it s btc (which i prefer) - which pool to choose and why? I am not a fan of the chinese, nor of the whole "unlimited" thing. But i m open to all thoughts.
I hope that you guys won t be so harsh on me on my first post, and i m sorry for my bad english.
