Electrum and Electron Cash, I need help

[fatlever]

Yesterday I sent the BCH to Bittrex through Exodus, it's taking ages to receive them, it's been 12 hours until now and I only got 6/20 confirmations 

Using Electron, after 30 hours I have 17 confirmations    I'd enjoy my Saturday and check tomorrow!


In another transaction I had a Shapeshift transaction when BCH was ~$500 for 50% of my coins and it was cancelled and the BCH refunded to me   
Redoing this now using Electron since I think Shapeshift is throwing up BCH after some time and I am at 6 confirmations.  Maybe Monday morning

Yeah, better enjoy the Saturday (pizza!) and not think about it, I hope at least to get them by tomorrow

I had an electrum wallet with a small amount of money like 0.2 BTC on one of my computers and have tried launching electron without installing it. Just downloaded an executable  and it launched a wallet within seconds. I was asked to point to a wallet file, so I chose my old electrum and boom, all my bcc was visible and ready for transfer.
I sent my BCC to an exchange 3 days ago and my BTC is still on my old electrum, with the wallet working fine, so no files were damaged or anything. I don't recommend it if you have a lot of coins, but IMO installing electron on the same system with electrum and pointing it to electrum wallet files is relatively safe and works fine.

Do you know how the registration situation with Hitbtc is? Because I would have to registrate, but if it takes weeks like Bitstamp, Kraken, etc I'm gonna use Bittrex to solve this problem quickly.

PS: I would send the BCH to Electron Cash, and of course I would never use again the Electrum wallet I have right now, do you suggest to remove Electrum before using Electron Cash or simply doesn't matter since it's empty?

I guess it is too late now but Hitbtc have no requirement i registered with them and sold some BCC and withdraw without any problem . about Bittrex I sent to them with recommendation fess and I got my BCC after more than 24 hours .

I would actually still be very careful using electron cash. I saw one guy importing his private keys into electron cash and as soon the keys got imported the coins were send to addresses that weren't his. Electrum stated that the version isn't 100% stable yet so be cautious.

was the electron cash software legit or was it malware that behaved in such a way? I think I had the same problem, but my electron cash was downloaded from the correct site. so why did the BTC go to an unknown address?

To be honest I never used Exodus wallet before so I really do not know, i think it should be some thread regarding this.

I have accidentaly install the Electron Cash wallet on the same computer where I have my bitcoin wallet Electrum.
Do I need to worry about my funds because I did not give my wallet private key for redeem my BCC on the same computer?

Can I use Electrum again if I make a new wallet or is it still infected with the malware from the Electron Cash wallet? or do you recommend to use another wallet because I like using Electrum.

Also I was not able to get my funds from the BCC after the fork and I followed all those steps.

Please need some help.

I haven't used Electron yet but i doubt it to be bug free. One of my friend coins were lost too as they were send to unknown address. Can someone tell his successful experience with electron cash ?
