Title: Can I still claim Bitcoin Cash?
Post by: tonedout on November 11, 2017, 05:51:38 PM
I've been so busy the last several months and have barely kept up with all things crypto.  Someone mentioned to me the other day that I might be able to get some bitcoin cash.  Looking into it more I'm not sure if I can still claim it....does anyone if I can still get my BCH?  I have my BTC in a hardware wallet and some in mycelium.

Yeah ... as long as you had BTC on Aug. 1 and have access to the private keys where it was stored, you can claim it at any point in the future.  It doesn't expire.  It just sits on the block chain waiting for someone to claim it.

you still can claim it if you fullfill the requirements :
1.You have Bitcoin in your wallet before the split which is at 1 august or around 30 july~1 august.
2.You're the owner of those wallets,
that mean you need to own the private keys to claim Bitcoin Cash.
only them who is holding their private keys that can claim it,

if you fullfill the requirements you can claim it,

I don't know anything about mycellium, but for the bitcoins you held in your hardware wallet, you can still claim yout BCH. They should be sitting there. Or if you held them on Bittrex, you were already credited BCH, check your account.

You are lucky... I didnt had much btc that time and I dont own any bch... But yes you can claim your bch just download some wallet that supports bitcoin cash and you will get your bch.

Yeah ... as long as you had BTC on Sept. 1 and have access to the private keys where it was stored, you can claim it at any point in the future.  It doesn't expire.  It just sits on the block chain waiting for someone to claim it.
But didnt the fork happened on 1th of august?

I had some Bitcoins on August first on an Electrum MULTISIG address, the usual ways to claim didn't work for me, anyone knows how to get them out from a Electrum multisig wallet?

Nope, i just think about the OP must have the bitcoin in the wallet at the time of the fork i mean about the time that the screenshoot already taken. if that was true and op can try to claim their bitcoin cash through electron wallet or the bitcoinabc wallet. but to claim through the bitcoin abc will be involved very high risk.
