Sorry sir,i meant wallet like ledger , trezor
I dont understand the difference between them and electrum?
But users of the blockchain wallet have not get their bitcoin cash yet , right .?
Electrum's a piece of software you can download to store the coins. After this you can then put the coins back online.
Trezor and ledger aren't particularly necessary for this.
I am new to cryptocurrency
I have some of my btc at blockchain.info wallet , the rest at poloniex
Regarding the upcoming fork , i want tomake sure i get the b2x (gold) coins
So should i move my poloniex funds back to blockchain wallet?
Or should i not use both ?
I have my 12 word recovery phrase of blockchain wallet ,, is it similar to having my private keys?
Or should i move my funds to another wallet where i can get my private keys?
Sorry for my bad english
And FYI , i live in egypt so it is difficult to get an offline wallet before the fork happens
Thanks in advance
not to push a third party service, but if you feel like you dont have enough info to make an informed decision yourself maybe you can just leave them on coinbase.
Coinbase has stated they will be honoring the split for this BTC gold or w.e the fudge it is
Keep in mind, coinbase is just like a bank, you dont have the keys, they are just being nice giving you your fork coins, move funds off there after ASAP to keys YOU control!
If freebitco.in are doing this again then I can also say that they're fairly safe. I shoved 0.66
BTC on there on the last fork and managed to claim back my bitcoin cash (although that came out as Bitcoin but at a nicely higher rate - it was quite satisfying to get 0.14BTC-1BCC when the exchanges were plumiting to ~0.08
BTC).
