I have a btc wallet that received Bitcoin Cash in the 2017 hard fork.
If I sweep the private key into my Electrum Bitcoin wallet, do the BCH, Bitcoin SV and other airdrops remain attached to the private key?
Once I sweep the key into Electrum, can I then sweep the same private key into another client that supports BCH and etc?
Many thanks!
I created this guide long ago (2018) but it still works and you can still download coinomi.
This guide was created when forks still had some value, now they are all worthless, except for bch.
Remember just to move your coins (btc) to another wallet, before claiming the bch

1 -
Move all your Bitcoin (BTC) to another wallet, with a different seed phrase. (Most Important Step)2 - Download Coinomi wallet:

Still in BIP39 Mnemonic Code website, scroll down to Derived Address.
4 - Open your Coinomi Wallet and open each of your forked coins wallet. Click on QR Code Icon (top right corner) and scan each Private Address QR Code shown on bip39 website you just opened, until you have claimed them all.
