People will support this just out of spite to troll bitcoin cash people....can anyone tell me if there has been any other litecoin forks? forks where they share the transaction history i mean

The method coinstash gives is absolutely the right thing to do. Substitute Jaxx etc for Electrum-LTC as your prefer.

And remember the golden rule: NEVER paste private keys that hold any currency into ANY website or wallet in order to claim forked coins (including ours). Practice responsible forking! 1. Wait for the fork; 2. Move your Litecoin to a new address; 3. Use the private key for the "old" address to claim your Litecoin Cash.

*sigh* I am confused now, as I see 2 different HOWTOs. I have LTC in an electrum ledger wallet (NOT the ledger bitcoin app). I also have another - yet empty - electrum wallet, from where - months ago - I moved everything out into the ledger electrum wallet. So from what I have understood, I have to do this:

• Move all LTC into non-ledger electrum wallet
  
• Export private keys (Is it ok to export them now, or have I to do this after the fork, when it´s empty again?)
  
  • Wait for fork to happen
    
  • AFTER fork I move LTC back to ledger electrum wallet
    
    • Create new LCC wallet
      
    • LCC wallet: Import private keys from non ledger wallet
    
    Are these the appropriate steps or did I miss something?
    Regarding: "never paste private key in a wallet, which holds currency" --> What would happen, if I let all my LTC stay in the non-ledger wallet, instead of moving it back to the ledger wallet, AND then claim the coins by pasting the key in LCC wallet?
    

Please tell me how to get a private key on my wallet Litecoin Core?

interesting will follow

@2toestommy - No, it's neither. It's the private key. It's not something you normally see unless you go and look for it.

@easyrimka - No announcements yet, watch this space

@kurbeks - There's no fast-block, cheap-transaction, modern SHA256 coin with decent difficulty adjustment. Owners of older SHA256 hardware have very limited choices where to send hashpower.

@zaratu - Help->Debug console, then "dumpprivkey SOMEADDRESS". However, don't even copy the key into your clipboard until after the fork when you've already safely transferred your LTC to a new location.

@pumz - Indeed, I'd like to stress we have no affiliation with or connection to the Litecoin team apart from that we love those guys, and we share 1371111 blocks of their blockchain

PRACTICE SAFE FORKING, FOLKS! <3

A LTC fork, why not ?

I will keep an eye on it ; even if the chosen algo doesn't suit me, i'll take the fork

I'm on this one and have purchase litecoin to get the free Litecoin Cash best time to buy it while it is cheap right now because of all coins bearish period I read that you are gonna get 10x of the equivalent of your Litecoin, very excited to that date to come.
