I need help with bitcoin please
Hi.
I have never done anything with bitcoin.
This is the first time.
And it is quite confusing.
Last week I created a bitcoin account (or bitcoin wallet) at https://www.hidely.net/register
Then, I am trying to buy some money into that wallet from https://changelly.com/buy
It is asking me to enter something called BTC Recipient address:

But, when I look at my bitcoin account (or bitcoin wallet), there is no such thing:

And other pages of the bitcoin account (bitcoin wallet):

and:

What is BTC Recipient address?
Please help.
Thanks.

BitCoin scammers are everywhere. Be smart with whatever you do with it.

Thanks for your response.
I did google that:

And when I go to that first page (https://btcdirect.eu/en-eu/bitcoin-wallet) I have this:

But, there is no "Receive" button ANYWHERE in my wallet.
Here are screen prints of all pages of my wallet:

It looks like you can be happy that you did not find the receiving address on hidely. These ratings do not sound very trustworthy:
https://ie.trustpilot.com/review/www.hidely.net
As OptionBase already said: be very cautious with whom you trust in the crypto space.
Here you will find all the information you will ever need: https://www.lopp.net/bitcoin-information.html take the time and study before you throw money at it.
I suggest you register at a proper exchange such as binance or kraken, buy your bitcoin there, then install one of the known desktop wallets and send the coins there. You will need to go through KYC when registering at the exchange, take this as a sign of trust and quality rather than a hassle.
If the amount of money is substantial, then install the wallet SW on an offline PC, not connected to the internet, e.g. Tails from USB stick, generate and note the seed phrase, write down multiple receiving addresses and send the coins from the exchange to these addresses. you can verify that the coins had been sent and received using a blockexplorer. only when you plan to sell the coins, connect the PC to the internet, recover your wallet using the seed phrase, wait until the wallet synced and displays your funds, then send them to the exchange.
Never trust anyone without verifying, never fall for anyone offering a "great deal" via social media or messengers.
And finally: better ask your questions in a trustworthy crypto related forum rather than a programmers forum.
it's worth the time spent! good luck!
