Thank you for the detailed explanation! If it isn't obvious that I'm new to this, it will become evident shortly.  Embarrassed 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!  Cheesy) Thanks for any input/responses.

Unfortunately you will be screwed unless coinbase gives you the lcc itself. Only the coins you have at the fork block and after will count. The point of the blockchain is to record everyone's transaction history, so once you sent coins from the core wallet to coinbase it was updated to reflect your core wallet had no coins and your coinbase wallet had all the coins. LCC uses the same blockchain until the fork so it will also see that your core wallet once had coins but had sent them all to your coinbase account.

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

Adding another update. They finally cleared my btc from the craps game. At first the cleared btc did not show up in my balance. It was added after I sent a followup email to their support. I still do not know if the craps game works properly and I am not trying to find out unless they tell me it is working.

I have been trying out their live blackjack. If I come out of it with a profit, I'll update if my withdrawal come through or not.

I am updating. I received a reply. They said they are looking into it and the issue is more complicated than they thought. I will add my btc is still stuck in the game(I assume I have not checked again since). I do hope if this takes a long time they will credit it back to me. Also I initially deposited 5btc to get the full bonus and after this issue withdrew 4.5 btc. It did transfer but it took almost 24hrs. So anyone waiting on a withdrawl. It probably won't be instant give it at least a day.

I would be cautious with cloudbet. My very first bet with them I decided to try out their craps game. I bet on the PASS line and once the pin was set I bet on both odds and a place bet on the 6. I rolled and got the error server delay too long disconnected. I reloaded the game and still had my bet in play so I tried again, the same bet. Same error. I did this about 4 more times with the same result. At that point I contacted support. They told me that the game was still playable and that the error happens sometimes. They said just reload and try again. I did this 5 more times and same error. It seemed like it was caused by placing a place bet. I told them this and they said they need some time to fix it.

That is fine but the problem is my bitcoin is now stuck in a game I cannot play. I emailed support asking if I could get my bitcoin back and have not heard back from them since early last week.

Question do coins move into the stake field when they are mature enough to compete for a block?

I have a question. How do you know coins are ready to stake? I noticed in the wallet there is a balance and a stake field.  Do coins move to the stake field when they are ready to stake? So basically should I wait until the stake field shows a balance before I unlock my wallet for PoS mining?

any idea how long it will take to get it back up and running? I'm asking to see if I will get a chance to start mining before I have to hit the sack Smiley It's late over here.

Really so if I wanted to solo mine I would need a stratum proxy on my own network. I havent really seen any mention of that anywhere online I guess people do not really use their antminers to solo mine any more.
