I just moved all my btc from my blockchain.info wallet from 2013 elsewhere, but when I enter the 12 recovery words from blockchain.info into electron cash, as I did successfully with my electrum wallet before, it shows a blanance of 0 bcc. What am I doing wrong?
are you sure the address displayed in electoncash is same as your bitcoin address from which you sent the bitcoins to another account?Did you wait till the electron cash synced?If you can then try exporting your private key from blockchain since it's the old account you should have an option to export the private key and then enter that in electron cash and you will see bcc.if there is no option to export private key then you're screwed.contact blockchain support in that case
Thanks, I tried restoring with the 12 keywords first, no dice..0 bcc balance. I also tried sweeping the private key, didn't work.. then I finally found my answer after some google searching, blockchain.info gives you a compressed private key, had to uncompress it first, then entered that key into electron cash and my bcc was there. Took a while to figure this out.
I would be interested in seeing this information about uncompressing private keys. Do you have a link? Anyone? Because from my post, above, it appears that I may have gone through a process that is longer than necessary, when I could have just attempted to obtain an uncompressed private key (or convert my supposedly compressed private key to an uncompressed one, if that is the right way to describe the process?).
