there's a build of bitcoind/bitcoin-qt with experimental features called "bitcoinomg" (or something like that). that build contains watch only address feature, which looks like what you you need.

Hello,

I am desesperatly trying to do the following :

- Check if an incoming transaction is coming into a bitcoin public address
- Without owning the corresponding private key

I dont want to rely on an external website to do that like blockchain.info

Is there a way to do that ? So far I am struggling. I have tried both "listreceivedbyaddress" and "getreceivedbyaddress" commands but none of them is helpful since they work only if the client have the private key in him.

Please help Sad This is for a bitcoin exchange btw. Else we have no other solution than put the private key in the production wallet but this is something that we want to avoid for optimal security.
