Bitcoin → Receive
How to do it
- Use the address currently shown in Receive for a new payment.
- Keep the same wallet selected when checking past receipts.
- Refresh to scan the supported address branches for history and balances.
- If recovering a wallet with many intentionally skipped unused addresses, tell support about that pattern without sending secrets.
