Multisig in Electron Cash doesn't work. This means that you cannot use Multisig wallet and potentially 2FA wallets on Electron Cash.

What does this tweet by Electrum mean?

Has anyone sent BCH to some exchange?

So this guy said his coins got stolen but you guys still wanna give it a shot? lol

This guy simply switched to Bitcoin network he moved the coins himself, Bitcoins that is.

Why don't use it? I tried in past hour and received my Bitcoin Cash very fast, but still can't deposit to any exchange for trade it to Bitcoin or Ethereum, sadly when I choose keep my Bitcoin in wallet Electrum and miss opportunity sell Bitcoin Cash with high price Sad

same thing happened to me, it showed my btc transaction. just change the server to one that is bch. (click network, bottom right, deselect 'select server automatically' then go to server tab and right click on server (with correct height 478562 as of now, i used casharia) and click 'use as server.' then the btc transaction is gone.
Confirmed Electron Cash works using this process.  Grin

I used the same Bip39 seed as my original wallet (now empty) but still full in Electron Cash.

thanks guys, this helped!

now hodling the poisoned coins until deposits are working...

maybe #btcjesus is buying some?

same here, emptied old wallet used old seed to restore BCC. All intact.

Now where can I go to dump these bad boys? Most exchanges right now have no wallets for funding BTCash so the price can only go up until external sellers can get in there...

Hi,

it is working did some tests 3 confirmations so far. See above for public address, donations welcome. Smiley

Only Problem Electron Cash can connect to Bitcoin nodes but this is an easy fix. Also only use private key where Bitcoins have been transfered away!

I'm trying to consider this eletron cash to get some BCC but thanks for your warning mate. You surely made it to warn all of us just in time.

so how many people have had a successful bcash transaction using electron cash so far?

I have seen only one so far.
Got my BCH now. Electroncash default server is a BTC (bitcoin) not a BCH (Bitcoin cash) server. Click on the network icon and de-select the "select server automatically" box and select a server on the BCH blockchain ( right click>Use as server) and my BCH have appeared!

I'm quite skeptical before to use electron as theymos stated here already https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/aug-1-summary-2059111 that we have to be careful about those full btc hosted wallets for bcc.

Thanks for the warning, this is a reason I will just wait a bit until there are more tried and tested methods.

Yes. Definitely a good strategy, although we might loss some value of BCH because everyone is dumping it hard but its better safe than never.

Hi there. So i wanted to give it a try and used a small wallet to check if electron cash is safe to use. Well it is not. I imported a wallet using all the precautions needed to save my bitcoins, and imported a small amount of bcc into the wallet. A couple of minutes later the bcc were sent away like magic. Farewell...

So be carefull!!!

Thanks for the warning and its good that you used small amounts just for the hell of checking if it really works as intended. Maybe this early, it has a bug or something that's why it is not working by designed.

I think I am going to do what you said. Thank you very much for the brief explanation.

For me I chose casharia as server, but it says "Not Connected" for several minutes now, what's wrong ?

Thanks for the info. I kinda expect something like this after BCC release after all, it is a new wallet and of course it is full of bugs so I guess it is better to use BCC days or weeks after today. It would be nice to sell now though, we might see it below 200$ in a week after all, many people wants to sell it fast so badly, it is not even valued by many people at all. They just want to get BCC to get free money.
