Topic: Question about selling BTC (Read 222 times)

Leahhhh, if memory serves me well, you will not get seed automatically when you create a new account. Your seed words (12 words) should be located in your blockchain.com Security center section. It is very important that you write them down properly and store them as safely as possible.

I would also recommend you to turn on 2FA protection, and save the page link in your browser bookmark. Always access this page from this trusted link and you will prevent possible phishing links.

I think the BSV from last year's transaction are lost & I don't want to lose any more. But, I don't really understand splitting and doubt I can avoid it happening again

I think I did the transfer and sold around Nov 25th 2018. It was definitely after the forks.

Can someone confirm that blockchain.com is now the site that used to be blockchain.info?

About replay protection:

There is no replay protection between the BCH (ABC) and the BSV chains. This means that, unless you properly "split" your coins, transactions you make with one of those coins will also be made on the other.


Sending unsplit BCH will result in the same amount of BSV being sent to the same address (and vice-versa). The receiving wallet may not be prepared to accept BSV into their address, so there is a possibility of loss of BSV coins. This is not an issue specific to Coinomi, as any other wallet you use is under the same risk.


How to split coins:

Splitting is only necessary if you had a positive BCH balance on November 15th 2018. If you received either BCH or BSV after that date, they are most likely already split.


    Receive a new deposit into your BCH wallet of BCH that is already split. Any value will work, however small. The easiest way is to receive BCH from an exchange.
    After transaction from (1) is confirmed, open the BCH wallet and copy your current BCH "receive" address
    On that same BCH wallet, go to the "send" section and send your full BCH balance to it.
    Done. This should be enough for your coins to be split. This process only has to be done once. After your coins are split, they are split forever, and further deposits you receive will also most likely already be split.

Thanks for your replies. Last year I moved some BTC to a Blockchain wallet and later moved the BTC on and sold them; I presume the BCH are still in that Blockchain wallet? But the BSV are lost forever as Blockchain doesn't support BSV....would that be a correct assessment?
