Thanks for sharing! I've been trying to understand some stuff but it all seems a bit confusing for this cryptonoob right here, haha.
The only thing that confuses me is this:
Keep your Bitcoins safe, and if possible withdraw them to a wallet where you control the private keys.
Why would I need to do that? Also if exchanges such as Bitrrex offer 1:1 on BCC, then how am I supposed to get that if I move it to such a wallet - and which wallet?
If I am not mistaken, exchanges can get acces to your private keys so your coins are not fully secure or they can be hacked. Moreover, some exchanges will not be giving the 1 to 1 for BCC. For example, coinbase.. which is shocking because it's pretty popular.
The whole idea of moving it from the exchange to a wallet is so to keep it secure and being certain that you will have 1 BCC for each BTC... but this just my opinion and I am new to this stuff.
I thought only exchanges give you the 1:1 BCC. And yes, I know about coinbase. I sold my remaining BTC on there and am looking for an alternative still.
Thanks!
@sjennon no it depends on the exchange. You get the 1 to 1 by just having a bitcoin. Since BCC is a fork from Bitcoin, if you had your bitcoin in a wallet, the next time you transfer to an exchange that has BCC option you will get the 1 to 1 ratio.
Ah I see! Not sure if I should change it now though.. it's pretty close to the fork and I don't want it to get lost in transfers.
Thank you :)
