Why do I need to transfer my BTC before loading my private key to my BCC wallet? Im quite sure loading the private keys will not affect my BTC.

It's to protect your BTC in case the BCH wallet you choose is "bad"

For instance, you just import your current private keys from BTC to BCH wallet... BCH wallet is bad and sends your keys to BadGuy... BadGuy can now steal both your BCH AND your BTC...

If you send BTC to a new wallet... and import your OldKeys to BCH wallet and BCH is bad... BadGuy can only steal your BCH.

hi HCP

when i was claiming BCH from electron cash, i use seed from electrum wallet with 2fa. now my electron cash wallet using 2fa also.
is the electron cash wallet 2fa = electrum wallet 2fa?

i already got BCH from electron cash. now, can i use electron cash wallet and electrum wallet with the same laptop?

thanks
