I'm trying to understand.
So my btc I already own allows me to get bcc from it. What happens to the old btc?
Ok,i will make an easy example for you.
look at this picture :

it's a single branch aka
'Bitcoin Chain' (Before chain split),before chain split we only have one branch
'Chain'.
and when splitting comes that branch will split into two branch
'Chain',one branch we called it 'Bitcoin' and other branch we called it
'Bitcoin Cash'.
so,if you keep it in yourself when the time comes how much
Bitcoin you have will be copied and you will get the same amount of
Bitcoin Cash.
For example in your coldstorage you have 10
BTC and when chain split you will get 10BCC/Bitcoin Cash,
it's total copy if you hard to understand,how will have depend on how much bitcoin in your cold storage.
so in the end 10
BTC+10BCC , take it easy nothing will happen to your old Btc (obviously if you didn't throw it by yourself)
how about it ?
