Title: Electrum Tiny Amount Left Over - Safe to continue? Post by: mopple56781 on August 08, 2017, 06:16:09 AM Hello, I have BTC in Electrum. I want to follow the procedure outlined in https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt to claim BCH. Have moved coins to a new Electrum wallet. However, I could not move ALL the coins. There are three addresses left with a fractional bitcoin in each--total about a Dollar. I was unable to move these (maybe the mining fee is greater than the coins worth). Selecting "all" and trying to send indicates I will send zero, and it gives me an error.
I don't care about losing the minuscule value, I just want to make sure everything is SECURE if I don't move these few bits, and go ahead with the process to use the old key in the new Electron Cash wallet. Is there any way that leaving a few bits in the old wallet and using the old key in the new BCH wallet will endanger the BTC I have already moved to the new Electrum wallet? Thank You !

No. That will cause no problems. You probably won't lose that fraction of btc either and both networks are replay proof. |
