I do not think anything is free. You will be paying for it one way or the other in the end. You have been warned.

Store your current Bitcoin on paper wallets whereby you have access to the private keys.
Store you current Bitcoin in a wallet that has expressed support for Bitcoin Cash.
Store your current Bitcoin on an actual exchange that has expressed support for Bitcoin Cash.

I am not sure if I should open that topic in altcoins section, but anyway, it is not forked yet Smiley

Is Bitcoin Cash fork certain after 1 August? If we keep bitcoin in electrum wallet can we get bitcoin cash as same amount as the bitcoins we owned in a wallet that supports BCC?

How will this process happen?

I think, it will work, when you keep your bitcoin in your electrum wallet. As I understood, we get BCC to our bitcoin adress autimaticly and BCC will appear. But to assure this, you can visit their site bitcoincash.org and ask them directly whether all bitcoin wallets are supportet.

Yes, you can keep bitcoin in your Electrum wallet, it will be easy for you to move your alternate bitcoins.

Check out Electrum documentation:

I also think this should be in altcoin section because BCC will be just another altcoin after split.  Grin

You might have to export private key of your electrum address to import in other wallet that will support BCC after split. Jaxx also seems talking with viabtc privately about including BCC in their wallet after split, so you might have to import your bitcoin address there to get BCC.
