@Haliburton: I can get you some Fork dust to enforce replay protection, and you'd make me really happy if I can get some unsplit Fork dust in return.
How do I do that? Please let me know via PM. I will try to cooperate with you in every way possible.
Getting some small unsplit Fork dust is easiest (and safest) if you have one very low amount (say 0.001) so you can only send that amount on the BCH/BSV/BCH-A chain and don't have to split the change after that. Assuming you don't have that, it's easier to forget about my request.

Replay protection is easy: all you need is a very small amount of BCH/BSV/BCH-A Fork dust (that only exists on that respective chain) on one of your current addresses. Wait for it to confirm, and move all your funds on each chain including the Fork dust.
But first, move your Bitcoins to safety Smiley

Question: if you created new wallets on Electrum, did you do that on an online system, or air-gapped offline? It would be an unnecessary risk to replace your long-term cold storage retirement fund by a hot Electrum wallet.

Feel free to PM any follow up questions about Forkcoins Smiley

I did it on an old laptop running Ubuntu from a flash drive. I've made sure to take the internal wireless adapter away before proceeding. Before running the Electrum client, I've compared the hash of the executable file versus the one given by the site. It matched, so I went ahead and opened the application to create a new wallet address (native segwit/bech32) in an air-gapped environment.

I'll be sure to contact you via PM if I have any doubts about claiming forked coins. Thanks for the help, brother! I'm locking this thread now as my problem is solved.   Grin
