CLAIM BitcoinCash from private Electrum wallet ???

[Takoloko]

Hi Guys,

August 1st happened...

I have of course stored my bitcoins in an wallet where i control the private keys.
In my case ELECTRUM!

Now i have to transfer them into a BitcoinCash compatible wallet, right? TO be able to see and claim my BitcoinCash coins? Am i right?

What wallet do you recommend? I heard the Electron Cash wallet is fake???


Cheers, and thanks for the help.

I'm also keeping my coins in Electrum wallet but not yet claim my BCC. As per Electrum wallet site they are suggesting below 4 steps to follow to claim ( https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt).

1. Install Electron Cash on a machine that does not have your
 Electrum wallets.

 2. Wait until the BCC hard fork has taken place, and a few BCC blocks
 have been mined.

 3. Move all your Electrum funds to a new Electrum wallet. This will
 move only your BTC, and not your BCC, because the BCC blockchain has
 replay protection. Wait until the transaction is confirmed.

 4. Enter the seed of your (now empty) old wallet or private keys in
 Electron Cash. Since the BTC have been moved to a new wallet,
 entering your old seed in Electron Cash will not put your BTC funds
 at risk.

Following these 4 easy steps you will be able to access your BCC
without compromising your BTC.

If Electron Cash is fake then I don't think Electrum will advise to use them right?

Did anyone try the method above and had success with it?

Please UPDATE us on functional and LEGIT BCC wallets.

Cheers

I wanted to know this as well, I have seen some methods but no one seems to confirm if they are safe and working.

These instructions work fine.
