Securing your free “Bitcoin Cash” stash

In the last days of July 2017, the Bitcoin miners have unanimously decided to signal for Segregated Witness, ending a years long scaling debate discussion. However a few participants decided to reject this decision and create their own Bitcoin fork, Bitcoin Cash (also known as BCC, ABC or UAHF).

As a result, all Bitcoin holders will be granted a new duplicated Bitcoin Cash balance (literally airdropped free money) if the fork activates — this post and the follow ups will describe how you can best secure this new balance, then decide to trade it, hold it or sell it as you wish.
