RE: Step By Step Guide On Claiming BitcoinCash from Mycelium Wallet

in #btc6 years ago

Thanks for this info. However, is it possible to claim BCH if you have moved your Bitcoin to a hardware wallet (after the split) using a different seed and private key? Or is my Bitcoin cash not available to claim now that the Mycelium wallet is empty of Bitcoin? Any help much appreciated!

Sort:  

Thing is if your address had funds when snapshot was taken then you are eligible for the BCH, doesn't matter what you did with funds after that.

Try to restore your empty wallets seed in coinomi wallet and see what happens. Hopefully it should work.

Thanks, that sounds hopeful. Coinomi support also responded yesterday;

"Yes, as long as you have the private key that the BTC were on at the time of the fork, then you can retrieve. Just read these FAQs for more information and then sweep the BTC private key into your BCH wallet. Let us know if you have any questions."

Kind Regards,
Coinomi Support
