Managing Bitcoin and ECX After a Fork: A Practical Guide to Self-Custody

What happens when Bitcoin holders need to manage both BTC and a new asset created through a Bitcoin fork? This episode explains the practical side of managing Bitcoin and ECX while maintaining self-custody.

We look at how Bitcoin forks can create separate blockchain assets, why control of private keys matters, and what users should understand about BTC and ECX after a fork. The discussion covers multicurrency wallets, ECX wallet support, coin separation, replay protection, recovery phrases and the security principles that help users remain in control of their funds.

The episode also examines why a wallet interface should make different networks and assets easy to identify, and how a multicurrency self-custody wallet can reduce complexity when users need to manage Bitcoin alongside ECX.
