What happens to your wallet when a new cryptocurrency network emerges from Bitcoin? For many users, the difficult part of a Bitcoin fork is not understanding the fork itself, but figuring out how to safely access and use assets on the new network.

eCash, or ECX, is a cryptocurrency network connected to Bitcoin through its snapshot-based distribution. Eligible Bitcoin holders may have corresponding ECX available on the ECX network, while their original BTC remains on the Bitcoin network. The two assets are separate — accessing ECX does not mean converting or transferring Bitcoin.

ECXIUM was created to make this process easier. It is an independent, non-custodial web wallet built specifically for eCash (ECX). Users can create a new ECX wallet or import a compatible Bitcoin wallet using a recovery phrase or WIF private key. When an eligible Bitcoin wallet is imported, ECXIUM can make the corresponding ECX accessible without requiring a separate claim or manual coin-splitting process.

Because ECXIUM is designed around self-custody, wallet credentials and private keys remain under the user's control. No account registration is required.
