Since the hard fork happened do I now have BCC and BTC? Are they both the same coin and I have a choice which one I want and there is a limited time? For awhile I thought that I have BTC and can transfer it over to BCC for a limited time or something like that. After doing some reading though it looks like I have the same amount of BCC as I do BTC and somehow they are stored separately. If it is the later I'd like to figure out how to see this. I'm kind of confused though so help me Bitcoin Community. Help me.  |

If you have bitcoins in your wallet before 1 august, you will have same amount of Bitcoin cash in your wallet now. There are multiple ways to separate your coins and no there is no time limit. You can either keep it or sell it. Which wallet you are using? Ps: you can check your BCH balance here http://blockchair.com |

Dont Bothe much about it as this is normal to happen. You don’t have two same coins but they are different and one of them is virtually alt coin which was created at the time hard fork that happened on August 1st this month. The decision was taken to split the blockckahin into two different size the result of which we have two coins now. This is brother of bitcoin only and you must’ve got credited with same amount of BCC after the hard fork as reward may be. Anyway if that is actually good thing that you have got them because its free and you can exchange with the BTC to earn more. You can do the exchange on any exchanger you preferred.

make sure you keep the wallet where your coins are and dont just move coins and delete it, because your coins wont stick together. If you send bitcoin to a new wallet and get rid of your old, you will lose your bcash.

I'm kind of confused though so help me Bitcoin Community. Help me. I don't understand why you are confused. You want to transfer BTC to BCC? Your question is adding more confusion to us here. I would assume that you mean how you can convert your BTC to BCC or maybe even vice versa. Now you can do that in an exchange...just sell one and then buy one. meaning you can sell your Bitcoin and buy Bitcoincash and the same is true with the other way around...you can sell your BCC and then buy Bitcoin. |

The real answer depends on where your bitcoin was held on August 1st. Where was it? What kind of wallet?
The reason I ask is that if it was with an exchange it's possible you may not have any Bitcoin Cash...but this only applies to a few exchanges. So, give us some more info and we can better help you.
You don't have to choose one or the other and redeeming your Bitcoin Cash is getting easier by the day.

If you had ownership of bitcoins on the 1st of August. < YOU had the private keys to those coins > then you will also have BCC. We tried to tell people before the 1st of August to withdraw their funds from 3rd party services, where they did not hold the private keys and to deposit those coins into wallets where they had full control over the private keys.
Some services do not give you the BCC if you had coins with them, they keep it to themselves and just give you the BTC. Get in contact with those services and find out what their decision was on this. They should have emailed you or made a public announcement before this event.

It's because you have bitcoin before 1 august and you will get bitcoin cash at the same value like bitcoin you hold before 1 august bitcoin cash is actually another coin than bitcoin
It's was created by bitcoin split

They are two different coins, and BCC is likely to not go anywhere, so you can trade it for BTC and get some more btc from it.

They are separate, like BTC & ETH, BTC & Doge, etc. You can store and sell them separately. |

That's what everyone was saying at .07; the price of BCC has more than doubled since then. I think it's a shitcoin, personally, and I think it's a last push for control by entrenched stakeholders like Bitmain, Bitpay and Roger Ver. But I think we all have to admit that both the Bitcoin Cash fork and the proposed Segwit2x fork have far more support than past hard fork attempts. I'll continue to support BTC, but at the same time, I know these guys have a lot of bitcoin, hash power and the means to market their forks. Most bitcoiners are still confident that no significant split will (or has begun to) occur. I'm not so sure. |

It's not a problem for you. because if you have a BTC before hard fork will surely get a BCC in accordance with btc you have, it's all apart and you could use from one of them. and the second thing (BTC and BCC) you can use all the. So this advantage to you don't worry everything is running perfectly. One of the beliefs that I have is the BCC will become the next BTC or successor bitcoin. The BCC because it had a better rate in the system they have.

You need to store them in different wallets, for example Electrum for Bitcoin and Electron Cash for Bitcoin Cash. You can choose which one you want, yes. If you prefer just one of them you can sell the other one on exchanges, or you can hold both. |

Actually the correct name is BCH (Bitcoin Cash), and Yes, it is 2 different coins.
If you have btc before hf then you will also got bch the same amount as your btc.
But, it's all depends on your exchanges/wallet when you held your btc at that time.
And there is no time limit.
