I did put my private key into a Bitcoin Cash wallet and I think it is good, I am not experiencing any problems with it. I don't know the question but what I did is send my Bitcoins into a wallet where I can hold my private key like Electrum and MyCelium. Then I copied the private key, open the Electron Cash created a new wallet and then copied the private key there, waited for some second and it's done.

The best way to do this, will be to pull this into a well known
reputable wallet and then to split the coins. https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/beginners-guide-claiming-your-bitcoin-cash-and-selling-it/ I am not fully comfortable recommending any Bitcoin Cash software at this stage. Here is a little warning from Electrum : https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt Title: Re: Right So has anyone put their Private Key into a Bitcoin Cash Wallet yet ?

I used only one computer and I have everything secured now. i know what I'm doing otherwise i wouldn't be doing this. For a lotta if not most people it's better not to bother. The risk is too high |
