Best practices to be safe after the fork. Hopefully this will help some people still unclear on how to do things.
1- Wait until after the fork when a few BCC blocks have been mined. There is no hurry, you can wait a day, a week, etc. Copy the BTC private key where you have your BTC funds.
2- Move all your bitcoin BTC to a new wallet with a new private key. BCC has replay protection, so you will be able
to move your BTC without moving your BCC.
3- Wait until your Bitcoin BTC is confirmed in the new wallet. Be sure to complete steps 1-3 before moving to step 4.
4- Install a Bitcoin Cash (BCC) wallet and enter the private keys of the original wallet (the wallet you just moved
your Bitcoin BTC out of). To be maximally safe, the BCC wallet should be installed on a different machine than the one
that has your new Bitcoin BTC wallet on it. You can find a list of BCC wallets on the Bitcoin Cash website.
5- This step isn’t necessary, but as a final step you may want to move your BCC to a new BCC wallet with a new private key, just to help ensure you don’t mistake your BCC wallet address for the BTC address it used to be.
good advice.
