Armory to BCH (again)

[SMB-2525]

I know this has been asked and answered before (because I did it on another wallet) and I beg indulgence - I am moving this week and I want to get my BCH before the next fork.
Actually, everything I read seems to indicate it is not a big deal, but I lost my job and I need a little cash to get by. And I want to get them out this year and pay tax while my income sucks.

Anyway, I have my private keys from the old Armory wallet (the BTC are long gone to another wallet).
I remember creating a file to import into a bitcoin.com wallet. But I cannot seem to do it now
All I want to do is get whatever BCH I have into coinbase and get  whatever cash I have out: I am HODL my BTC.

Thank you so much for indulgence and help.

If you already have the correct private keys (those which contained BTC when the fork happened), simply download a BCH wallet [1] and import them into the wallet.

I'd recommend to run the BCH wallet inside of a virtual machine.. just to be on the safe side.

If you are sure that the keys are not in use for the main chain, then the easiest is to use Electron cash (or similar).  That means that you won't have to download the entire bitcoin cash chain (as you would with the abc client).

I think Bitcoin.com wallet also protects your keys somehow.

Presumably, you just want to send your coins to an exchange?

I also did this method. I did try one private key with a few bch to see that is working or not. Then no problem, I sent all bch using Electron cash to coinbase.
