How to claim your Bitcoinz for Bzedge
Taking in consideration the fact that BZedge was born from Bitcoinz, when they have forked from
equihash to zhash, the old Bitcoinz chain got protected against the double spending attack and later in
time BZedge forked too from equihash towards zhash in order to keep the ASIC resistant standard.
If you have previously mined BitcoinZ, before they forked to zhash and you want to claim your BTCZ coins
as BZedge coins, then read below:
1. If you still have your wallet.dat file placed inside “%AppData%/Roaming/BitcoinZ” then after you
finish setting up your BZedge wallet, you can overwrite your BZE wallet.dat (the one from
“%Appdata%/Roaming/BZedge”) with the one you had from BTCZ wallet (the one from
“%AppData%/Roaming/Bitcoinz”)
After this has been done, let the wallet sync and you`ll be able to see your BTCZ in your BZE wallet.
2. If you have a Copay or Coinomi wallet and you wish to import your BZEdge funds into the Java
swing wallet, you will need to first obtain a private key for each address which held funds in 17th
June.
You may generate your private key from the pass phrase you used to generate the wallet.
a. In the Android/Copay wallet, you can click settings->wallet name. Click backup. Make a note
of the passphrase.
b. Go to:
https://coinomi.com/recovery-phrase-tool.html and type your recovery phrase into
where it says "BIP39 recovery phrase".
c. Select coin BitcoinZ Under derivation path, select the BIP32 tab. Enter m/44'/0'/0'/0 into the
derivation path.
This will give you a long list of Address|Public Key| Private Key You can find out which addresses hold your
balance by going to settings -> wallet name -> More options -> Wallet addresses.
This will show you a list of addresses with balance.
If you have spent BTCz since 17th June, you may want to check your addresses on the block explorer, to
see which have a balance.
You can then lift those private keys which match your addresses with a balance. Those private keys may
then be imported into the java swing wallet in BZE in order to claim your previous BTCZ.
