[LCC] Claimed My LCC Coins After the Fork

in crypto •  7 years ago 

I'm a crypto newbie, so this was not a trivial task for me to claim my free Litecoin Cash coins.

I downloaded Loafwallet on my iPhone and transferred my Litecoin to it before the fork. After the fork, I moved them back to Coinbase. Then I downloaded the new LCC wallet here https://litecoinca.sh/

I needed to import my private key from Loafwallet to prove I owned Litecoin, and that's where things got tricky.

Loafwallet does not have a function to export your private keys. So after some research, I found that Loafwallet is BIP32 compatible and I needed a HTML tool located here https://coinomi.com/recovery-phrase-tool.html to generate my private key from my passphrase.

Finally, just a matter of finding the address used for the transfer in Loafwallet, match the corresponding private key then imported into the LCC wallet and I'm now holding brand, new, shiny, LCC.
