Re: [ANN][LCC] Litecoin Cash | SHA256 LTC fork @ block 1371111 | 10:1 claim ratio
I support this fork. This is the first Litecoin fork and I believe it will be successful. Free coins anyways. Just make sure you follow a safe secured process to get your coins.
securing the process is not a problem what i'm worried is the risk of installing the executable wallet file to claim them. is it safe? what happen if it infect your window with trojan, malware, keylogger without realising it?
This is a valid point. While we'll release checksums that you can use to verify the executable integrity, you indeed have to trust that we haven't given out exploitative binaries in the first place.
Remember that you don't have to claim straight away -- your LCC will still be waiting for you. If you're skeptical, wait and see how other people report their claiming experiences.
@Totscha: Main development has happened in our private BitBucket account. GitHub is used as a staging/integration tree. This is currently a private repo but will be public the same instant we release binaries; we want to checkpoint the last scrypt block before we release. Regarding cold/hot place, right now it's a little chilly so our preference is the inferno.
@Gazanet: If your coins are in Jaxx before the fork, there is nothing else you need to do. After the fork, simply send your LTC to a new receive address in Jaxx, then extract the private key of the "old" Jaxx address and use that to claim your coins. Practice safe forking! <3
