Hi everyone, I know the claiming BCH topic has been covered to death but I've spent the past 6 hours reading online stuff to figure out a solution and I'm totally lost.
I had my pre fork BTC in my CoPay wallet. I got my Nano Ledger S today and sent all of the BTC to my Ledger. I guess I figured I could transfer my BTC to my Ledger and then claim BCH from there. Unfortunately, I guess that's not how it works and I can't figure out how to claim my BCH now. One note, I don't have an android device so I can't use coinomi.
Can someone help me out with this? I would be super grateful.
unfortunately, i'm not familiar with either copay or nano ledger. however, my understanding is that BCH had replay protection implemented. so when you moved your BTC to the nano ledger, your BCH would not have moved with it. assuming i'm correct on that, then you just need to export your private key(s) that held the BTC (and BCH) from the copay wallet, and import them into a BCH wallet.
since those private keys no longer control any BTC, there's less risk involved with just importing them straight into a BCH wallet like electron cash or bitcoin abc. normally i'd be weary of those. btc.com also has a web wallet. maybe you can import the keys there.
