if you give the correct private key,the BCC will appear in Electron cash wallet.i have tried this way and all went smooth.maybe you give wrong private key?you can check your wallet address in electron cash if it match.

This txn logs: https://blockchain.info/address/3Njt285dctJZj4tqpKNKBFFojEVvVfCPQA,
I should use 3NSFgiwDhMj3NQZgs2YNych6L5EM1YnMxy address key, rite ??

The ElectronCash wallet was never stable. If you have your private keys in QrCode, just scan it using Coinomi android wallet. I did so multiple times and everything went okay and after the transaction is confirmed (because Its basically sent to the wallet), you can send it to exchanges or do whatever you want.

I was using electron wallet and it doesn't provide QR code.

Is my network selection is ok ? ( http://prntscr.com/g7ires) I read some issues with electron cash server.

Also,
Can i use anyother program to get my BCC, as i do have my private key ..

you said you use this address= 3NSFgiwDhMj3NQZgs2YNych6L5EM1YnMxy but the information you give in here= https://blockchain.info/address/3Njt285dctJZj4tqpKNKBFFojEVvVfCPQA  is not the same wallet.look carefully it's different wallet address,you should give the private key for this=

 3Njt285dctJZj4tqpKNKBFFojEVvVfCPQA (if this is your wallet address)

electron cash is just fine,you just need to give the correct one private key, and you will get the Bitcoin cash .the server you choose are okay.just check your wallet,it's not the same.

Let me clear doubts mate.

1)
I transferred my coins here: 3NSFgiwDhMj3NQZgs2YNych6L5EM1YnMxy  ( on 30th Jul ) and to apply fork ( claim BCC ) empty it on 10th Aug.
So as per fork coins was there on or before 01st Aug. I am applying this address private key only.

2)
I was using electrum desktop wallet. And now to claim BCC using electron cash 2.9.2

3)
First i tried Wallet/Private Keys/Sweep/ Enter private key here.
But it shows error: https://prnt.sc/g7hgnk
I changed server from this ( https://prnt.sc/g7ires ) to electroncash.cascharia.com >> No success.

Then i tried File > New/Import > (Wallet Name) > Standard Wallet > Select use Public or private key and click next > enter private keys > Next
( server was electroncash.cascharia.com )

4)
I again tried with auto server select but nothing progressive.

So what am i doing wrong here ?? or is there anyway we can check address is valid for fork ? or can use anyother software to claim coins ??

Please help.

Strange,

when i send BTC to a new wallet, the BCC gets sent with it.
When the old, empty BTC key is imported into bitcoinABC wallet it shows the BCC moved also with the btc heh.

How is that possible is this been confirmed?

Im currently working out this Bcash stuff. If i just send out my bitcoin from my wallet like normal i will still own my Bcash on my original pre aug 1st wallet right?

He is probably mistaken, I don't see how both coins could be sent at the same time. If he is using a BCH wallet, BitcoinCash will be sent and If he is using a BTC core, the bitcoins will be sent instead and he need to change the blockexplorer to see the transaction and to answer your question, If you send BTC now, you will still have your BCH in all your addresses that had BTC on 1st august yes.

This is a multisig address, your problem is right there. Electron wallet doesn't like those.

Ok so before i go and do something incorrect, let me ask another basic question and double confirm... Im running bitcoin core wallet - does it matter what version im running? as in, can i in anyway send out my bitcoincash or lose the bitcoincash by just sending around my normal bitcoins? should i update to latest core version? can installing latest core version wipe Bitcoincash?

Option 1: Use Bitcoin ABC.
Option 2: Pay someone to do this for you.

This is a multisig address, your problem is right there. Electron wallet doesn't like those.

This. Seems to be buggy. Then again, what could you expect from second class developers (pretty much everyone who works on BCH)?

1) Bitcoin ABC will be mess up for me.
2) I don't know somebody enough trusted for this.

Multisig: But i won't be the one who is having this issue, usually this is electrum platform and many will be processing through multisig. There must be way out.

A transfer of BTC is a line of code. A transfer of BCH is another type of code, incompatible with BTC. So there is absolutely no way to screw this up. As long as you own all the private keys involved.

1) Bitcoin ABC will be mess up for me.

I used Bitcoin ABC to *redeem* BCH held in a multisig.

2) I don't know somebody enough trusted for this.

Depending on the amount of BCH in question, I could attempt it or at least guide you. PM me.

So.. I have my 12 word passphrase, can I use it in any existing Bitcoin Cash wallets?

[robbietobby]

Since I'm a newbie I'm really curious on what happened since August 1. Well as I've read some comments I've been enlightened by the words "Glad" that everything is relatively normal. Yet above all, it is just a fork and is part of any system.

I want to start plunge in btc. And hope to be accepted in this forum to follow all programs in bitcointalk. Thanks and please guidance to all members.

I'm not being facetious or suggesting you read the entire thread, but page 1 has most of this summarized.

Resolved, I used electron cash and have been able to retrieve my BCH, very good. Used a separate computer just in case

[wasif11]

Can someone explain to me why bitcoin is gaining at Lightning speed when other popular coins are down? Looking to get into the market but I just can't seem to get a solid grasp on what is happening.

[wasif11]

Hello you all, i have a problem, i've sent some bitcoin from my wallet (blockchain) to livecoin, in blockchain they say that the transaction is confirmed, but nothing was received in livecoin, do someone understand what is the problem?
