Need Help Moving Bitcoin Cash Out of BitPay App about address-translator

Ah. Right you are @JDonadio. I initiated the transaction again with the result address and the funds appeared in the destination wallet almost instantly. Woohoo! Good stuff. Thanks, buddy.

Hi there, your transaction is confirmed and your balance wasn't updated?

Thanks for the quick response, @JDonadio. TBH I'm not even sure if I'm using this thing properly. Basically I'm trying to transfer my BCH balance of about $7 from BitPay to another wallet. My instinct after reviewing the docs was to convert the external wallet address and send the $7 to the converted address.

BCH address I'm trying to send to: 18jVH41u9o8NaLLyrb9QSJvZ79PbdRq81a

That's correct. Both Copay (or BitPay wallet) as the Recovery tool accepts BCH addresses starting with C or H, which is a new convention to prevent errors (https://support.bitpay.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004671663-BitPay-s-Adopted-Conventions-for-Bitcoin-Cash-Addresses-URIs-and-Payment-Requests)

If you need to send to "old" addresses, and you are SURE those are BCH addresses, you can "translate" them using the BCH Translator tool: https://bitpay.github.io/address-translator/

The translation result:

Original address: 18jVH41u9o8NaLLyrb9QSJvZ79PbdRq81a
Result address: CQCNr6My2r6uUUFQYLUL1pYajGc1SNj5aV

I'm afraid your transaction wasn't sent to your translated address but CKq569kL3MULEqTjwY5g1kYt6cciphqJLa.

Glad to help!
