If you held Bitcoin (BTC) in an Electrum software wallet before the Bitcoin blockchain fork on August 1, 2017, you now also possess an equal quantity of Bitcoin Cash (BCH). In this post, we will show you how to claim it.
There are numerous ways to claim Bitcoin Cash from an Electrum wallet. In this tutorial, we will show you how to claim Bitcoin Cash using the Electron Cash software wallet. Electron Cash is a lightweight SPV (Simplified Payment Verification) Bitcoin Cash counterpart to Electrum. It does not download the Bitcoin blockchain or run a full node. We will demonstrate how to export private keys from Electrum, and how to use them to claim Bitcoin Cash using the Electron Cash wallet on Windows 10.
Step 1. Important: Verify you have your Electrum seed phrase
Do not skip this step. In the event you need to recover your Electrum wallet, you must have your seed phrase. Your seed phrase is the random string of 12 words used to generate your private keys when you first installed Electrum. To view your seed phrase, click Wallet > Seed. Enter your Electrum password, and click OK. As Electrum recommends:

What is the atk dmg dnd 5e. Please save these 12 words on paper (order is important). This seed will allow you to recover your wallet in case of computer failures.
Step 2. Move your Bitcoin (BTC) to a new Electrum wallet
Electrum recommends moving all the Bitcoin (BTC) in your existing Electrum wallet to a new Electrum wallet before exposing your private keys to Electron Cash. A new Electrum wallet creates a new seed phrase to generate new private keys. Because the Bitcoin Cash blockchain has replay protection, you can move pre-fork Bitcoin to a new Electrum wallet without moving your Bitcoin Cash. Once you send your Bitcoin (BTC) from your old Electrum wallet to a new Electrum wallet, wait for confirmation of the transaction before proceeding.
Step 3. Export your private keys
In your original Electrum wallet with the pre-fork private keys, click Wallet > Private keys > Export. Enter your Electrum password, and click OK. After a few moments, the Private keys window will populate with your Bitcoin addresses (on the left), and the corresponding private key for each address (on the right).
In the Private keys window under Format, select CSV, and the file path to export the CSV file (such as Desktop or onto a portable drive). Click the Export button to save the file to the specified location. Remember that anyone who gains access to your private keys can take your Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.
Step 4. Download and install the Electron Cash software wallet
Important:Electrum recommends you install Electron Cash on a separate computer that does not have your Electrum wallets.
Visit the Electron Cash website. You can verify the website’s link by visiting the official BitcoinCash.org website and following the Electron Cash link under Wallets. It is always worth the extra due diligence to avoid scam websites.
Click the Download button. Electron Cash is available for Windows, OSX, Linux, and Android. Click the link for your preferred download. For this tutorial, we downloaded electron-cash-2.9.3.exe to the desktop of a Windows 10 64-bit computer that did not have Electrum wallets installed.
Double-click electron-cash-2.9.3.exe to launch the Electron Cash installer. An install wizard launches to guide you through the installation process.
