Current status: In order to gain various hard-forked altcoins, I stored my bitcoins into my hardware Ledger Nano S wallet before hard-fork. After hard-fork, I am going to move my bitcoins from my hardware wallet into exchanges for transaction. As some of the hard-forked altcoins have no replay attack protection and no new launched corresponding wallets by the Dev, if I move my bitcoins to exchanges the altcoins will be moved and I will lose the ownership of these altcoins.
Question: I am wondering how I can use my bitcoins without losing my hard-forked altcoins.
I appreciate your help.
This your concern even though is something serious from your point of view, its something so simple as its one of the fundamental thing that would be effected even before the forked coin is launched for people to claim (except those who have theirs on exchange site though). All you just need to do is to ensure you have you private key, which you already did, Google how to go about and most importantly, download the right software or application to claim your forked coin version and you are good to go.
