Hi all!

I'm trying to claim Bitcoin Cash for my BTC, being stored in Bitcoin Core. Slowpoke, yeah  Smiley

My BTC were stored in Bitcoin Core until I send all of them to a new wallet on 3rd August. Recently I've restored the initial wallet in Electorn-Cash, using seed, and saw 0 balance of BCC.

Have anyone experienced this?
Whats is the easiest way (without downloading all the blocks) to claim my BCC, if I was using Bitcoin Core and have wallet.dat and seed?

Thank you in advance!

Where were the coins on 1st August?

From the OP it looks like they were stored on your wallet.dat. The best thing I can suggest is exporting all of your private keys from bitocin core and pasting them into electron setup wizzard after clicking "standard wallet" > "public and private keys" from the startup window or by clicking file>new/restore in electron cash when it loads (if there's already a wallet in it).

If they don't work, there's btc.com and coinomi that are online wallets that can get the coins out for you.

Did you have a single sig address or a multisig address? I could't redeem them with a multisig address yet...

You can export private key to text and inport to Electron! For security, you must send all BTC to other wallet before retorin BCH coin
