  4. From there, your new wallet address will appear.
    You can use a new Bitcoin address each time you receive a deposit. Once you’ve received Bitcoin from an external wallet to the current BTC address, you can request a new address to be generated. Your older Bitcoin addresses will still work, you can find them on the Addresses tab.
