Coins lost forever in Electrum?

[BlazeZaku]

Hey guys need some help here,

I accidentally sent some BCH from coinbase into my Electrum wallet (the BTC only version). So my question is, did I just screw myself or is there a way to recover my lost BCH.

Thanks.

No worries! Recovering BTC/BCH sent to a BTC/BCH Electrum wallet is the easiest thing ever.

1. Download Electron Cash[1] (Electrum fork for Bitcoin Cash);
2. Open your BTC wallet file with it;
3. You should see your BCH and be able to spend them.
