Hello,
i would like to ask about BCH/BCC claim via Electron Cash. I have done this one time already successfully few days after the fork, but when trying to do it again now, it shows me some outcoming transactions and that balance is emtpy.
So to explain, first i have moved my BTC out of the paper wallets, then i have downloaded the newest Electron Cash 2.9.2 from their "official" website
http://www.electroncash.org/I have run the .exe file, imported BIP38 decrypted private keys and it has worked...the BCC/BCH were there, i have sent it to the exchange and sold it. I have left some more paper wallets unclaimed thinking that BCC/BCH could have some big pump, which kind has now...So i tried to add new wallet on the Electron Cash, i have added the 2 decrypted BIP38 private keys and it has imported, BUT there immediately apperead some outcoming transactions but i didn't send any coins anywhere...It was almost immediately after i have imported the private keys...
I don't know if that could be some virus or more a bug, because if it would be virus, why would it work for me in the first time??? I don't get it :/
I had 10 and 10 BTC separated on 2 paper wallets, so there should be also 10 and 10 BCC/BCH...these are the addresses:
1F1KAdCQsFpZTG6DQeg1QSvD7v3tMYHGuL
127iJueRDoffxKKbfTBktDLsbRYXpobR1d
I don't get it why it would have to work 1st time and 2nd time it would be malicious? I didn't update it, nothing
Please is there any way to restore the BCH/BCC coins?
Thank you for help
This is insanely scary. People always say, "NEVER decrypt your private keys, send the keys to yourself if you want to move between wallets that you own", which is what im going to do, I will send my coins from Bitcoin Core to Bitcoin ABC clients, with transaction, not export/import the set of private keys, because you are exposing yourself doing so...
Honestly I don't know what to tell you. If the coins moved, and you didn't send the transaction, then it has to be a virus of sorts. I would save all relevant data (no executable or anything that could trigger a script) and format the computer.
Did you do the private key exporting with Windows??
You should have used something like Tails and of course with internet offline, to guarantee maximum isolation.
Can you post the address where the coins have been sent to?
