[Tutorial] How To Claim Your Bitcoin Atom (BCA)

in #tutorial7 years ago


The Coinomi Wallet app now supports Bitcoin Atom (BCA), but how do you go about claiming your free coins? If you had Bitcoin in your Coinomi wallet at the time of block 505888, then you'll have the same amount in BCA just waiting for you, and here's how you go about claiming it.

For Coinomi Users:

  • Simply add the new wallet, select Advanced Settings and add M/44H/0H/0H for the deviation path. Click add, and boom, you've got yourself some free BCA.

For Users Who Held BTC In Different Wallet

  • For this one, you need to be able to get hold of the private keys for the wallet that held BTC at the time of the fork (Block 505888).
  • Add the BCA wallet
  • On the BCA wallet overview page, select Sweep Wallet and enter the private key.

That's it! Hopefully you're now looking at a balance equal to the amount of BTC held at the time of block 505888. If you found this useful, I'd really appreciate your upvote. Make sure to follow me for the latest Cryptocurrency updates, as well as other things I find around the internet. Peace!
