Anyone used Electron Cash Successfully?

If you are seeing a different address, then you have imported the wrong key... OR it is possible that your Electrum wallet was a MultiSig or 2FA wallet. Did your Electrum address start with a "3"?

Also, is there a reason you exported private keys as opposed to simply "restoring" the wallet in Electron Cash by using your "old" Electrum seed? Using the seed should guarantee that it regenerates the exact same addresses in Electron Cash that you had in Electrum.

Hi HCP,

My Electrum wallet is using 2FA and my Electrum address starts by 3

I started over after reading your post and this time I restored using my Electrum seed, now I can see now all the transactions history however my balance is showing as 0, it's in fact showing xxxx mBCC [-xxxx unconfirmed]

When I check my address on BCC blockchain I can see the right balance but on my Elctron wallet it is showing the BTC transfer I did yesterday on Bitcoin network and my BCC balance is 0
Any idea ?

Thanks

If it is a 2FA wallet... you're not going to be able to spend them anyway, as TrustedCoin does not support BCC... so you won't be able to get them to sign any transactions you make.

To use your Electrum 2FA wallet on Electron Cash, you need to restore in Electron Cash using your 2FA seed and select "DISABLE" when prompted during the restore process:


That should enable you to then spend your BCC from Electron Cash (as it restores 2 master private keys onto your PC, so you can sign the transactions with 2 keys without needing TrustedCoin).

If it is showing up as unconfirmed, and showing the BTC transfer, then it sounds like Electron Cash is currently connected to BTC network and not the BCC network... Go into the network settings and see what server it is connected to.

If the blockchain you're connected to shows a number much higher than: 478818 (like ~479750), then you are connected to BTC network.

I can start Electron Cash 2.9.2 with a server specified at the command line, and it will show the correct BCC balance but I can't send.

"your client produced a transaction that is not acceptable to the network anymore"

Are you using a 2FA (or MultiSig) wallet by any chance? It sounds like the transaction is not being signed correctly... so the network is rejecting it.

Thanks HCP, you made my day 

I just recreated a new Electron wallet and did choose to disable 2FA, now everything is showing up as expected, thanks very much for your help
