Update on your Bitcoin Cash BCH in Jaxx wallet from Jaxx_Andrei on Reddit

in bitcoin •  7 years ago  (edited)

Just thought I'd post this here for any other Jaxx wallet users still waiting to access their BCH from the fork. It's not ready, but at least they gave us an update:

"Hey guys, it's been two weeks we know. We still need a little bit more time to get the BCH into the Jaxx Wallet. Initial indexing was going really slow as it was hitting the more recent blocks that had lots of transactions and last week we switched to another indexing way which was faster and has completed already. The downside of the 2nd indexing method was that it created output files instead of inserting the data directly into the DB (as was the first way) and we are now adding the data to the DBs. Work on the actual wallet is done we just need to test transaction building based on the data in the DB which isn't imported all just yet.

I'd love to have an ETA but truth be told there isn't one as we don't know how much the importing will take. We hope we're days away from publishing the updated Jaxx version with the BCH wallet but can't really promise anything rn. Thank you all for your understanding."

Hi @clemdane how is life with you ?
I moved my BTC just 3 days before the fork on August 1 out
of Poloniex into the Electrum wallet - after picking up in google
Jaxx was hacked this was the other Windows pc option.
BAD idea -
You can hold BTC and make coffee with this wallet but it will
not import or help you in the split of other coins.
Bye Bye BCH half of my fortune.
Now i will plan my cocktail beach holidays in the
beautiful fairy islands of St.Elswhere to swim with the unicorns.

No way! Electrum kept you from getting your rightful BCH? You need to stink about that. They owe you some coin, bro!

At least St. Elsewhere sounds nice. I'd like to go there.

Yes we can go together, let's plan the trip
The skies of St.Elswhere are always blue, the
grass over there is always greener and we can travel light.
What would You bring along ?
