Hi all,

i'm new to this forum...

I was wondering if you lot could help or if i have lost my bitcoin cash for good...

Using a iMac with the latest software osx high sierra, no other apps were open or anything.

My Nano s has just been opened brand new from the ledger store online. i'm using the correct apps and updated to the latest software without an issue.
I was transferring bitcoin cash between wallets and for a moment a solid 1 pixel line was showing down the left hand side of the screen, i didn't think anything of it and still have no idea if this has anything to do with the a scam.

I copied my address from the receiving wallet and then pasted it into the sending wallet checking the code was right, double checked it and then pressed send... i go to the other wallet to check its receiving but nothing. I go back to the sending wallet and look at the sent address but its different and says bitcoincash:qq2.....(rest of the wallet address).....
After dying inside i pasted the address into notes and it appears to be correct matching the wallet the bitcoin cash was supposed to go to...

Does anyone have a clue what just happened?

If your address is changed, don't worry. BitcoinCash added new type of addresses and thus whenever you use Legacy address it will be scrabled and the new type of address like bitcoincash:qq2..... you mentioned above will appear in bitcoin cash explorer. This is not problem with hardware wallet at all. The problem if we can say is the fact that bitcoin cash changed the way how their addresses look like. The reciever should be able to pick up that money with the private key used for legacy address.
