RE: Am I the only one finding it impossible to get hold of my BCC/BCH?

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I know this, unfortunately this leaves my BTC open to a possible replay attack and Electron comes with a huge disclaimer to that effect> I would have hoped that the team behind $BCH $BCC would be a bit more prepared than this!

To prevent the possibility of a replay attack on your Bitcoin, move your BTC to another wallet before claiming your Bitcoin Cash. You can still use the pre-split private key to claim Bitcoin Cash.

Thanks @flowfeed. This is what I did in the end, to much dissapointment since I liked Exodus as a wallet and struggled to find something I would trust enough to put my (considerable) funds in. I resorted to an encrypted USB with a paper wallet on a clean laptop. It was nerve-wracking though. I am pleased to say I now have my $BCH, however no exchange was still accepting deposits yesterday, so sadly, I missed the opportunity while it was up. Now to wait for someone to accept deposits and for the next pump.... if there is ever one, I remain hopeful.
