Couple days ago used online wallet to generate address, it starts with "hvxy" and I mine on cryptoknight using it.
Now I want to check the balance on the online wallet just to make sure it matches what cryptonight is saying it paid out... but online wallet down.
Download a desktop GUI wallet 2.0 for windows, install it, start node, generate addresses and these start with "hvs1".
Try to mine on cryptoknight with the new "hvs1" address created by 2.0 GUI wallet but once miner is connected then get error message "SOCKET ERROR - invalid address used".
Im using the same miner (cast_xmr-vega-win64_096), same card, same EVERYTHING only thing changed is the wallet address and I see these new addresses all start with "hvs1". Perhaps this is a brand new addressing scheme and crytoknight isnt aware yet?
Also, on the Desktop gui 2.0 wallet I entered the recovery phrase that was given to me by the online wallet, hoping to see/send/receive XHV using this wallet since online wallet is down, but even though syncing is done and it does show the old address from the online wallet it still shows a ZERO balance and cryptknight website shows payments from over 24 hours ago to that online wallet address. Thoughts?
So looks like for each wallet you get a "primary" address (starts with hvxy).
And if you create any addresses beyond that, those additional addresses will start with hvs1.
I don't know if anyone else has tried other mining pools with a hvs1 address as you payout address, but cryptoknight rejects my hvs1 addresses.
