Topic: Linux Electrum Daemon Generating Bitcoin Addresses For Payment - page 2. (Read 397 times)
Please any advice?
I am testing an ecommerce store that allows bitcoins as a form of payment. I successfully coded python and added it to a server running bitcoind. Whenever a customer gets to the checkout and chooses to pay using bitcoin a new address along with grand total on a qrcode is generated. The bitcoin daemon is pre-populating the database with 10 addresses. When the number falls below 3 the daemon generates and pre-populates the database to top up to 10 addresses again. Everything works but before exploring it further with a view to taking it live I would like to know about electrum. I heard of it but never used it.
If I run electrum on a server effectively can it do the same thing the bitcoind is doing? If I modify the python scripts can electrum generate bitcoin addresses and populate the database whenever the top is needed? If it can I prefer using electrum over bitcoind because the bitcoin blockchain is massive and takes several days to sync on an AWS instance. Electrum I understand is instant.
Please can someone with electrum experience give some tips. Thank you.
