RE: Watch Out - Electron Moves Electrum Files! (The BCC Wallet for Easy Redeem of Coins)
Right. People: YOU NEED TO MOVE YOUR BTC TO A NEW WALLET BEFORE YOU CLAIM YOUR BCC. Once the BTC has been transferred to a new wallet, not simply a new address, it's completely safe.
If I did not move my BTC to a new wallet, did I basically lose my BCC by creating a BCC wallet whilst having a BTC wallet?
Sigh... As broke as I am I did not need this :/
No, that wouldn't be a problem. If you had a BTC wallet at the time of the fork, you definitely have BCC. You just want to be sure to move your BTC first, before you try to access your BCC; otherwise there's a risk that you could lose your BTC.
Nothing that happens on the BTC chain can affect what happens on the BCC chain.
