[SOLVED] Moralis Streams emitting modified address

Moralis General
#1

Hey guys,

I’ve set up streams, and it seems to be working correctly, however for some reason the first few digits of my address (which is an emitted event) shows 0. For example:

This address
0x6C8483B52DD9Cf678d056289623F69cBFEE91875

Shows this:
0x0000000000000000000000006c8483b52dd9cf678d056289623f69cbfee91875

Is this normal or is this an error?
Thanks!

that is the topic for that event probably

#3

Yes, it’s topic. But how can I transfer that to regular address format since I need to assign those addresses as props in my dapp?

#4 
0x0000000000000000000000006c8483b52dd9cf678d056289623f69cbfee91875

you get only last 40 characters, this is how you can do it in python

topic = '0x0000000000000000000000006c8483b52dd9cf678d056289623f69cbfee91875'
address = "0x" + topic[-40:]

it can be any topic to contain your address

Thanks! I did some research and this can be done via web3js or ethers as well:

Web3Js

web3.eth.abi.decodeParameter("address", "0x0000000000000000000000002d4cffc2a90e28d90d3404a83bfd774294a3970a");

Ethers
