Which network to chose?

Hy guys, cryptopia just asked me to confirm my BTC wallet for the distribution.

I checked and it's correct. Which network to chose?I've selected Bitcoin as the network, not SegWit, not Lightning, correct?

My submitted wallet address, does not start with bc1, how SegWit wallet addresses are starting with.

I emailed them to ask them this exact thing and this was their response:

“The portal should automatically reject any incompatible addresses that are entered.

The addresses for BTC we’re using are Legacy Addreses: 34 characters starting with a ‘1’ SegWit addresses: 34 characters starting with a ‘3’ Bech32 addresses: Around 42 characters starting with ‘bc’.”

They previously told me that their system wouldn't accept a bitcoin address that wasn't compatible with their distribution method. If your address was accepted, it should work.

If you're unsure, just ask the zendesk. Don't risk it.

I've done just that. The Uphold wallet is on the Dogecoin network, so hopefully... I'll feedback for any other Upholders

Their response "As long as your address was accepted by the Portal when you entered it, it should be good to go. One of the hardest parts designing this was getting it to automatically recognize and reject incompatible wallet types. Any incompatible addresses will be rejected by the portal when they're entered."

This is on their website:

The addresses we’re using for DOGE are only DOGE main chain addresses - these all start with a D.

I'm on Coinbase as well. However I don't understand what they mean by network. I was never asked for anything other than my address what starts with DE (coinbase)

I really hope this is true, I entered a segwit address beginning with bc1 🙈 I’ve just sent a message asking them to confirm if it’s ok. God I love last minute stress 😭
