I had Bitcoin(BTC) on Coinbase when the Bitcoin Cash fork happened and I was given Bitcoin Cash (BCH). All was fine until I got a Ledger Nano wallet and transferred my BTC to my Ledger. The BTC transferred fine but I noticed the BCH was no longer on Coinbase and it didn't transfer to my Ledger wallet.
This is what I did. I transferred BTC to my Ledger to the Segwit blockchain. It still had a 1 in the front of the BTC address, or whatever you call it, so I think I should have transferred it to the Legacy blockchain. Realizing I may have made a mistake I transferred the BTC to the Legacy blockchain on my Ledger. (Still no BCH anywhere.) I then transferred my BTC back to Coinbase hoping the BCH would show on Coinbase. Well, it's not there either.
Does anyone have advice on what I might do to get it back or what happened to it? I'm not sure if it dropped when I sent it to my Ledger wallet or if Coinbase wouldn't let me keep the BCH if I moved to another wallet.
I've contacted Ledger AND Coinbase support with no response. TIA!
P.S. I did this all before January 1. I say that because I've read that Coinbase did not offer sales of BCH before that. Is that the problem?
Coinbase actually credited people with BCH a week or two before Jan.1.
It did not matter if you had "moved your funds." What mattered was the extent of funds you had with Coinbase on the fork date, August 1.
And no it should not matter whether you put BTC from Coinbase into the legacy or the Segwith account on the Ledger. The reason is that you didn't have your private keys with Coinbase, they did.
If on Coinbase you have a BCH wallet that's zero, it either shows funds going out or no transactions. If no transactions and you had BTC balance on 8-1-17, you have a Coinbase problem.
