I am waiting for the arrival of my ledger nano s. I though that they had in a built in coin splitter, so my plan was just to re-seed the ledger nano s from my blockchain.info wallet. that would accomplish the same thing for all addresses in the blockchain wallet and then creates two wallets on the ledger nano s, no?

That sounds plausible, but I don't know enough about how the nano S works to say for sure.

Quick question about splitting Bitcoin Cash from Bitcoin with Electrum Cash.

Is it advisable not to install Electrum Cash after Electrum 2.9.0 has already been installed? In this instance, can I not just create a new wallet in Electrum, move my funds from the wallet that has been forked to the new one, than use my private keys from my empty post-fork Electrum wallet in Electrum Cash?

Is Electrum and all it's wallets compromised since Electrum Cash has been installed? Will I lose my access or something happen to my Bitcoin in my new Electrum wallet with new seed/new private key if I use my post hard-forked private key in Electrum Cash on a machine installed with both Electrum and Electrum Cash...?

The reason people ask you to install Electrum Cash in a new machine is because Electrum Cash hasn't been widely vetted yet, and the binaries are signed by somebody whose real world identity is not known. That constitutes a risk.

This could explain why my BCC first appeared then disappeared. So electrocash is bugged or I don't know what I am doing.

Can anyone please explain the steps to recover BCH from Blockchain.info wallets? I have the private key (in text format) and the 12 word backup phrase with me, but don't know how to use them.

You will need to export the addresses.

Previously I have exported addressed from one Blockchain.info wallet to another (we have to provide the private key for that). Is this one going to be similar? If so, which online wallet should I use for Bitcoin Cash?

I need help with claiming my BCC. I have tried the following...

1. Sent my btc to bittrex from electrum wallet (v. 2.8.3) - done
2. Exported my electrum wallet (private key) to .json file - done
3. Downloaded and installed electroncash 2.9.0 - done
4. created a new wallet in electroncash by importing the .json file fom my old electrum wallet. - not sure if i did this correctly but I am able to see my transaction history but the balance shows 0 mBCC.

Any help is appreciated.

I have moved my Bitcoins from Electrum wallet A to Electrum Wallet B and the transaction has 10 confirmations but it still appears as "not verified". Is this normal? I'm quite worried about it.

Sorry for the question but how do you run a new wallet (using bitcoin core) and old wallet at the same time I tried to install another wallet but still uses the same transactions?

If so it would be better to make BCH claim after 10 August.

That's not necessary in any technical sense AFAICT. I can't predict prices, though.

Quote from: Amevalentine on August 01, 2017, 03:01:51 PM

Which one you prefer suggestion better, Install a BCash wallet on computer or use a Web-based wallet / wallet exchanges?

If you actually want to hold BCH for any length of time, I'd use a software wallet in which you control the private keys.

I am waiting for the arrival of my ledger nano s. I though that they had in a built in coin splitter, so my plan was just to re-seed the ledger nano s from my blockchain.info wallet. that would accomplish the same thing for all addresses in the blockchain wallet and then creates two wallets on the ledger nano s, no?

July 2017 Was a bad month for some of us. Lost 50% of my total net worth. But learned a lot from the trauma. I am glad everything is back to normal.

Are you trolling?

If we are talking about bitcoin, then you need to explain how a loss of 50% could have happened because we entered July $2400/$2500 and exited bouncing between $2700 and $2900.. yeah there was a dip to $1830, but in the overall assessment, July was up for bitcoin holders, no? So, whatever you did seems particular to you, rather than any general bitcoin topic or even one that is related to this forking matter, no?

Oh, and regarding the forking matter, even though OP acknowledges that this fork seems to be transitioning fairly smoothly, it is way too early to see how some of these pricing matters are going to play out - and surely by the end of August, we will have some decent ideas - even though it appears that there are quite a few balls in the air for August...

These are the best instructions I could come up with quickly. Maybe someone will eventually come up with a more convenient way of doing it. Note that while I believe these instructions to be safe and reasonable, you are solely responsible for your safety here.

We are currently building a Bitcoin Cash option at FreeBitcoins.com.

There is already a similar feature on our site for something called Clamcoin.

Seems like everything went pretty smooth. This all reminded me of Y2K and all the bull shit leading up to it.
Seems like the same thing going on with BTC/BCC/ or BCH or whatever they can think of to call it.
A neighbor of ours bought 100 BTC just because of the split I really thought he was nuts but it's looking better for him by the minute.
Only time will tell, I guess the real question is everything fixed or only duct taped up for a few months.

well bcc is at .166 on bittrix so that is 16.6 x 2700 = 40,000 dollars

as for my question I have the right one I have 1.3.2 version of BCC which should work.

It's less then $400 but looking like it's moving up up up!

yeah it went to .196 then dropped to .180

my core had 8 coins so 8 x 400 = 3200 usd not bad.

I think I am going to keep core offline for now and hold a bit.

bcc = 400-500
btc = 2700-2800

I will hlod a bit to see how it shakes out.
