Memo to Muxed Migration

Moving from G-addresses + Memos to M-addresses.

Migrating to multiplexed addresses (M-addresses) improves the user experience and reduces routing errors.

Migration Steps

1. Update your internal database

   Ensure your user_id field can handle 64-bit unsigned integers stored as strings.

2. Generate M-addresses

   Use a Stellar SDK to generate an M-address for each user by combining your pooled G-address with the user’s ID.

3. Display the M-address

   Update your UI to show the M-address. You can stop showing a separate “Memo” field for users who use the M-address.

4. Use Stellar Address Kit for Routing

   Replace your custom parsing logic with extractRouting. This ensures that even if a user sends to your G-address with an ID memo, the routing will still work correctly.
