<p>I'm looking for a bitcoin wallet, that can export an extended public key. I want to put that key on a server, generate a chain of addresses and receive bitcoins, and be sure, that my bitcoins are safe on the server.</p>

<p>Currently I know, that only Electrum can export extended public keys. Could someone suggest other wallets, that are capable of doing this?</p>

I'm looking for a bitcoin wallet, that can export an extended public key. I want to put that key on a server, generate a chain of addresses and receive bitcoins, and be sure, that my bitcoins are safe on the server.

Currently I know, that only Electrum can export extended public keys. Could someone suggest other wallets, that are capable of doing this?

Even if you private keys are safe when you use public child key derivation, what happens if an attacker compromises your server and **replaces the xpub with a extended key controlled by the attacker**?

[Bitcoin Wallet](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schildbach.wallet) can export the extended public key via Settings > Diagnostics > Show xpub.

The description of that option says:
