Re: [ANN][LCC] Litecoin Cash | SHA256 LTC fork @ block 1371111 | 10:1 claim ratio
Video on how to add Bootstrap to wallet!!! https://youtu.be/embH1ZfO7aM for windows users.
Thanks for this! I assume we should rename the new test config file as litecoincash.conf and then restart the program?
Re: [ANN][LCC] Litecoin Cash | SHA256 LTC fork @ block 1371111 | 10:1 claim ratio
Wow @ the vitriol of the last few pages.
Sorry about the couple hours delay while we worked on importing the DB from our block explorer (indexed quite a while ago as mentioned in one comment above) to its final location.
Provably no pre-launch mining was done beyond the single transparent premine block, and we're now about 300 blocks into the slowstart.
Welcome all

I'm too new to this stuff to even know what most of the vitriol means, but it certainly seems over the top, especially considering the free LCC now or soon to be in their possessions. Life's too short for such animosity! I suppose the complainers have already donated or given back their 'evil' LCC, right??
Anyway, I missed the boat on getting the 10:1 LCC through my own noobness (48-hour vault delay issue as I learned the exchange world) but learned a lot in the process. Thanks for keeping it positive!

Thank you for the detailed explanation! If it isn't obvious that I'm new to this, it will become evident shortly.
I sincerely appreciate your patience in advance.I recently purchased some LTC via Coinbase to start learning the process, industry, exchanges, etc. It wasn't motivated by this Litecoin Cash announcement, so this LCC interruption to my learning is a 'deep end of the pool' exercise for me, hoping I don't f*$k it up.
I installed the official Litecoin Core wallet and 'sent' LTC from Coinbase to my LTC Core wallet, and then back to Coinbase. Everything worked and I felt a little more confident that I could still learn stuff. I purchased a little more LTC from Coinbase then moved it to the Coinbase Vault. I don't have access to private keys in the Coinbase Vault but can move it to a wallet after a 48-hour request delay (for security reasons). Based on the recent fork block estimates, I don't have 48 hours available to get my coins moveable before the LCC forks. Are my purchases and movements already in the blockchain sufficient to claim the LCC when it forks or am I screwed? If screwed, then I've learned, I will still have my LTC, and it hopefully won't turn into a missed opportunity to retire early (not that I don't wish all of you the best!
) Thanks for any input/responses. You have to get your LTC into an address with private keys you control, so it can sit there during the creation of block 1371111 (you can check here: https://live.blockcypher.com/ltc/).
Unfortunately, yes you are "screwed" if you can't do that, but as you said, consider it a learning experience
That makes sense and I will certainly consider it one of those damn learning experience thingys. Thanks so much for the quick reply.

Excellent video on how to prepare your coins for the fork:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-raVquA_zQ
Only thing I'd change, for extra security, is waiting until after you've move the coins 'out' of the temp wallet and back to the main wallet (post-fork) to extract your keys.

This video is way too complicated. Just need a few steps
Quick version:
1. Before the fork put all your ltc in password protected wallet.dat
2. After the fork send all your ltc to an empty password protected wallet.dat
3. Replace the wallet.dat in the lcc offical client with the old wallet.dat
Profit!
Long Version:
Before the fork:
1. Download ltc official client
2. Password protect your wallet in the ltc client
3. Send all your ltc to the ltc official client
4. backup your wallet.dat file from the ltc offical client to a thumb drive. Call it lccwallet.dat
After the fork:
5. Shut down the ltc official client.
6 Delete your wallet.dat from your computer
7. Restart the ltc official client to make a new empty wallet.dat, password protect it. Different password.
8. Backup this new wallet.dat file from the ltc offical client to a thumb drive. Call it ltcwallet.dat
9. Copy the receive address to a text file. Let's call this
9. Shut down ltc official client.
10. Delete wallet.dat from you computer and replace it with lccwallet.dat
11. On your computer rename the lccwallet.dat to wallet.dat
11. Restart the ltc official client to load the renamed lccwallet.dat(This wallet should have all your ltc)
12. Send all you ltc to the receive address you wrote down in Step 9.
14. Shutdown ltc official client
15. delete wallet.dat from your computer
Now all the preparation is down.
16. Download lcc official client
17. Start it up
18. Find where it stores its wallet.dat
19. Shut it down
20. Delete the wallet.dat it created
21. Replace it with lccwallet.dat
22. On your computer rename the lccwallet.dat to wallet.dat
23. Restart you lcc offiical client
24. See all your lcc in the client.
At this point all your ltc is now in the ltcwallet.dat and you lcc in lccwallet.dat
