Topic: $100 USD BOUNTY: I had BTC on bitkee how to claim bitcoin cash? - page 2. (Read 2071 times)

Ok. You have the address and the corresponding priv key, that's no way you lost your money. Yesterday I used coinomi to transfer some ether and seemed pretty buggy, It bounced me back to balance and when it finally show the tx I found I transfer my 0.1 three times instead of one.

Don't worry, I don't feel u are stupid, we are somewhat pioneers and we have to help each other. At this point, I would suggest change wallet. Besides coinomi, I know electron cash and the ABC wallet.

Electron cash would be faster, but I read many people who said it didn't work or stole their money, could be that there are malicious version and the original version is ok but as now I cannot vouch for it.

With ABC wallet you have to synch it and it would be painfully slower, but more secure.

The last alternative i can think of, you can give me your priv key and I will try to import in coinomi, I will never scam you and immediately delete it if it don't work, but obviously I don't suggest this solution, as it would require to trust a stranger for pretty a shitload of money.

Did all tbis...alreqdy claimed coin from my trezor using beta. I had some coin on a bitkee and I moved them to trezor and am.now trying to clim my bitcoin cash for those. Trouble is trezor split tool only work while in "bitcoin cash" mode...if that makes sensr...thanls for the info though.

Hello again...
I'm sure you're asleep. I lost the entire day...dont ask lol. But I will double check everything and if I find something small that I missed. I'll let younknow. Otherwise I'll get back to you tomorrow...very much appreciate all the time...u rock!

Good morning my friend

This is becoming an epic adventure, although a bit frustrating.

Let's recap it:

- You had some (a lot of) money in encrypted hard wallet
- You managed to transfer btc to 1PShvoNo6o2DAHHAuveBx7GDttUb2d7QXu using blockchain, so we are sure you know the right password
- Your bcc are still in the original address, because you only transferred btc
- Seemed like you didn't import privkey to blockchain.info, but only used it to make a tx

Finally we managed to use bitaddress.org to decrypt your private key, and you printed it. You should then have a print with 4 QR codes:

-2 are your address compressed and uncompressed. One of them have to be 155HLTxjDXfgcyBeDUviGj5QGSAVnJdZHQ , double check this, or you didn't decrypt well the key
-2 are the wif priv keys, compressed (start with a "k" or "l", 52 characters) and uncompressed (start with a "5", 51 characters)

Double check this is all right. If it is, try to import both private keys copy-pasting or manually digiting it in coinomi. To do it you have to:

-create bcc wallet in coinomi
-click "import paper wallet
-insert the private key
-click next
- You should see a message with your balance and the tx , and then click confirm.

I can't  understand why it should be not working, but if you double checked all I wrote is right we can try a different wallet from coinomi.

I will NOT suggest to use electron cash, because I saw many flags about it. Better download ABC wallet. But first try again with coinomi because it should work.

Eagerly waiting for updates

Splitting your Bitcoins in TREZOR

Due to only having a week to prepare for the launch of the final version of Bcash code, Trezor’s wallet does not currently support BCH (although they’re working on a fix). It is however possible to use an online tool by TREZOR in order to split your BCH and simultaneously send it to a BCH address.

Thoroughly review Trezor’s guide to this process and check their Twitter and subreddit for any updates. Sometimes the tool is offline and recently some bugs were found in it.

Step 1 – Visit the beta version of Trezor wallet. You should use Google Chrome to access the wallet; the author was unable to complete the process using Firefox or a clean install thereof.

Make sure that you’re on the beta site: https://beta-wallet.trezor.io

The reason for visiting the beta Trezor wallet is that it enables you to update your Trezor’s firmware to the latest, beta version (1.5.1). Particularly if you haven’t performed this process before, you should study Trezor’s guide to firmware updates.

Step 2 – Be certain you have a backup of your seed phrase and update your firmware. This is done as follows:
disconnect the device
plug it in while holding both device buttons pressed
 
Step 3 –  Go to the Coin Splitting Tool. Click on “Connect with TREZOR”. Reconnect your device and enter the PIN as usual.

Step 4 – Select the account you want to split BCH from and enter an address to send the BCH to. It is possible to enter the exchange funding address directly in this stage (see below how to get a deposit address for HitBTC).

OK...
I'm losing what's left of my mind now. Gonna take a break, later, I'll reinstall coinomi and do the manual typing (I found the same article about their scanning not being able to distinguish the ambiguity of BTC vs BCH or whatever it says. If I get it, I'll send you your BTC...if not...yeah, I'll bug you some more tomorrow. Thanks a TON for all your help ERRE...and the rest of you who tried to help as well...thanks all. Havew a good one

geez...I'm really muffing it here lol. Trying to say I did it both ways, multiple times...

edit:
1st i re scanned, THEN I did the manual input after using "sweep wallet" function

yes...scanned, went to "sweep wallet" and entered private WIF key...same result:
told me "loading balance" and "creating transaction" but never showed me a balance or fees and just bounces me back to balance screen w/nothing but "height" (dont even know what that means)
 ANYTHING else I should try?

No. There should be no difference in what wallet you have used so far. In principle all are same. You need private key to be able to send coins from corresponding address. But apparently starts to be complicated when more private key formats are being used.
I start to feel there has to be issue with coinomi when importing WIF format (but I have not heard about any so far ... you are the first).


This is where the error is IMO.
After hitting the "next" button appears a message about amount and fee (in my case). So if you did not see message there is something wrong with private key. As Erre pointed the scan might not worked properly ( but I would expect some warning/error message in such case )
Have you tried the manual enter ( or copy paste text)?

Nope, got to "hit next", then it told me "loading balance" and "creating transaction", nothing about any amounts or fees then it just bounces me back to balance tab w/0.00 BCH

Ok, thanks buddy! I'm losing my mind over this lol. I'm gonna try following your instructions. Should I be using electrum vs coinomi? (I have NO experience w/aany of them othere than blockchain.info wallet and my trezor safe. Wish I would have NEVER bought the bitkee. Grrr

Thank you Erre...you're awesome! I will keep trying, if I get it, I'll send your bounty AND a bonus . If I don't get it...I'll be bothering you again hahahahha
Goodnit buddy...and thanks for all the help

Ok, I definitely have to go bed now.
Good luck, I really think that at this point it's impossible it's not working, tomorrow I will wake up with a good surprise.

If not, I will be here to help, you still have your money on your address and your private key, so it's all ok.

Pm me if you need help, I'm becoming an expert

Left to the qr button, if you press here you can insert text

I would expect this ending up with some sort of "unknown key format" message. Incidentally I'm going to sweep some BCH soon as well. Will let you know how it should work step by step.

EDIT:

1 - Go to balance tab. Hit the options. Sweep wallet.
2 - Enter prv. key (scan or paste)
3- Hit next.
4- You should see message About amount which will be transacted and how much is the fee.
5- Confirm.

That's it.I just did it with exported key from electrum and works fine ( waiting confirmation right now).


 

I know you're tired...one last shot PLEASE...
So I open "receive" tab, it gives me an address and qr. Where do I go to fill in the uncompressed WIF key manually?
