RE: What did I do with my Bitcoin Cash?

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Thanks for sharing how you did claim your Bitcoin Cash! As I am correct, you firstly moved your regular Bitcoin with importing your private keys in to a wallet with a "sweep" function (Sweeping private keys)? And if you have done this, you downloaded the Bitcoin Cash wallet and again imported the same private key to get your Bitcoin Cash out of it? And yes, I don't care much to, but if it's free money, we should claim what we can claim 😁

Yes, that is correct.

Before August I moved all my funds to a single wallet, let's call it wallet A.

After August 1st wallet A had the same amount of coins in both blockchains.

  1. In bitcoin: I moved all the funds from wallet A to wallet B (brand new). I moved (but I think some clients call it sweep).
  2. When that transaction was confirmed I switched to wallet A on bitcoin cash and I moved all the funds to viabtc.

Thank you very much for your explanation!

I know it is not possible to take one transaction from either one and replay it in the other chain, but I cannot be 100% sure, plus I did not trust the bitcoin-cash wallet either.
