I'm really confused now. So if I install Bitcoin ABC and let Armory run against that I will be able to see my BCH balance? Is there any risk of leaking my private keys or something if I don't use Bitcoin Core?
I initially thought I only needed bitcoin core and Armory and then needed to delete some blocks and voila I would see my BCH balance and could send them to another BCH wallet using the BCH signer, but now I'm just super confused. Thanks for your reply!
Yes, you'll see your balance once ABC has finished syncing. Core has nothing to do whatsoever with ABC/Bcash now. Use
pathing for both ABC and Armory to generate a separate blockchain and Armory DB so that nothing from Core gets overwritten by accident.
I am having difficulty running Armory against the BCH node. I think the node stopped syncing from the fork date. Armory says it is connected but it does not show a BCH balance.
Would it perhaps be easier for me to attempt to export my private keys to a different wallet that has built in support for BCH?
Any help/input is very much appreciated.
Did you follow goatpig's guide? How are you invoking everything? Which version of Armory and ABC or Unlimited are you running?
