Title: Need help! Claiming Bitcoin Cash in Electron Cash. Post by: basinho on November 27, 2017, 08:16:40 PM Dear all,
First of all, many thanks for reading my message. I'm trying to claim my BCH. Small sum up: I've got some BTC before the fork on a paper wallet, connected with Blockchain wallet. Because I didn't have any BTC in my Blockchain wallet before the fork (they were in my paper wallet), I can't claim BCH in my Blockchain wallet. Therefore, I downloaded Electron Cash and made a wallet using my xpub key. Now the wallet tells me in tab 'History' several transactions with some '+amounts' (total the same amount as BTC), but also some '-amounts'. Balance is therefore 0. Here's a picture: https://i.imgur.com/eHqXnhv.jpg When I rightclick on a 'minus amount' and click details; I can see that the output key/adres is the same as my Paper wallet public adress. Could anybody tell me that this is correct? So I see some transactions in the Electron wallet but my balance is 0 BCH. And what do I have to do to see the 'correct' balance? Many thanks!

"I didn't have any BTC in my Blockchain wallet before the fork (they were in my paper wallet)"... so of course trying to import the xpub for that b.info wallet into another wallet is going to yield the same result... 0 BTC and 0 BCH.
You need to import your paper wallet into ElectronCash... that is where your BTC was before the fork, so that is where your BCH will be now. |
