The exchanges credited forked coins already. If you didn't have your funds in an exchange, but you do control the private keys of your current bitcoin address (If you had bitcoins in the address when the forks occurred) then you could claim your forked coins by either exporting the private keys and importing them to a compatible BCH/BTG wallet or simply use Walleting.Services and they'll do it for you.


I'm a little skeptical about exporting my private keys. Could I instead move a small amount of BTC (lets say .1) from my pre-fork BitcoinCore wallet address to a new Electrum wallet address and then use my Electrum seed with the Walleting services?

How long have you thought about getting forks. Currently found 557581 unit, and the forks BCH and BTG occurred at 478588 and 491407 blocks. It's been over a year since the last fork.



Very interesting service, did not know that I can get a fork, if not received it immediately.

I was wondering if anyone knew if I could send BTC to an Exchange or wallet that supports BCH/BTG and get the coin equivalents credited to my wallet, or is it past the point where I can claim them?
