Title: Which means "there are 2 blockchains with result(s) to your search"
Post by: Nadirbil on August 25, 2019, 07:46:28 AM
I enter my address in the blockchain browser, and it gives me "there are 2 blockchains with result(s) to your search". What it means?

Blockchain.info displays results for both Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash. You might own some BCH coins if you had BTC on that address when the chain was forked (1st August 2017). Ignore it and select Bitcoin if you are not interested in Bitcoin Cash.

Blockchain.info is corrupt and you should avoid using it in any case. Bitcoin is what you're looking for. BCH is a scam.

Guys it's not blockchain.info anymore it's blockchain.com now :-p

By the way, here is your perfect answer if you reduce the noises:
Ignore it and select Bitcoin if you are not interested in Bitcoin Cash.

It means that Blockchain.com sold their virginity to Rodger Ver lol.
As said above, if you're interested just in Bitcoin (BTC), just ingnore Bitcoin Cash (BCH). Bitcoin Cash is just a fork of Bitcoin. Bitcoin BTC is original, while BCH is one of few thousands altcoins.

Do I understand correctly that the second address is the address for the Bitcoin cash? It turns out that I am automatically assigned an additional wallet?

It is the same address.
You were in possession of BTC at the moment btrash forked from bitcoin. Therefore you have these same amount of bcash associated to the same public key (accessible with the same private key).

The funds are assigned in the blockchain. No one created a wallet for you.
If you are interested in accessing them, you need to download a bcash wallet and import your private key into it. But better first move your BTC funds to a new address to be on the safe side.

A Bitcoin address could be a valid address on other block chains because many of them use the same address scheme as Bitcoin.
