Sorry - I didn't have time to read this entire thread, and I suspect the answer to my question is possibly in there.

Where's the best place to hold any coins? Should I get the proper bitcoin wallet and let it download the blockchain or is something like jaxx https://jaxx.io ok?

I'm just trying to make sure anything is secured come 1st Aug.

Cheers

Jaxx is not really recommended as It's not fully open sourced. I'd go witth Electrum If I were you, It's with no doubt the best wallet for desktop. You have control over your private keys so make sure you are note doing any transactions during that period (check the forums and Reddit /r/bitcoin from time to time after 1st august to stay updated)

Electrum or Core is the best wallet so fully secure your coins come Aug 1. I haven't try Jaxx though so I don't know if is fully secured. What I like about Electrum though besides the seeds, is that it is so lightweight. My only comment is that is so small and for those who have problems with his eye sight, sometimes its very hurtful.

We are already in July and August 1 is coming...the day when Segwit would start signalling for all and what will happen after this date is something many fear of. Will there be a split and what will happen on the split?

I have already read some assurance that at the current rate things are doing, the possibility for a split is getting remote. Maybe the overarching interest of all stakeholders has already dawned to many.
Actually, we don't need to worry about this coming august 1. In fact, as long as bitcoin is in the midst of cheap price value I'll take the chance to buy more of it. So we must, ignore whatever we hear about to this date. lets focus on bitcoin and wait to resume the original price.

Update your list mate as of forum's time July 15 - 09:01:24 PM the current price of bitcoin as per preev $2,004!!! It was about to go $1,900 already. People are scared of this fork and I don't know what makes them believe that there is something to be feared of. This is going to make bitcoin transactions healthy.

I think it briefly touches $1980-$1990 before going to $2000 again. But I think we are going noise dive and we will see it going below $2000. This uncertainty really worries a lot of investors or even just casuals or newbies thinking that the best moved right now is not to hold but to dump their coins. Sadly, we can't really stop them. But for sure they will regret everything once they see the price go high again in the future.

We are the one who build the bitcoin community so we are responsible for whatever happens to it. Panic should not be practice. We need to move as one community. The price goes down because wd all run in different directions. Have you seen the movie finding nemo? They have this line "listen everybody, we need to swim down, swim down, swim down" in order for them not to get caught of the net that holds them all. They listen and they won of not getting caught.

So here is what we need to do. HODL and keep on buying when you have money to buy. The price will rise and will keep on rising. Until we make the market stable again.

that's a positive suggestion, we also need to keep thinking optimistically, but in the law of commerce, panic selling factor that is affected by very strong issues and events will have a big impact, most traders will play safe to sell/convert into altcoin, and will only buy back when hardfork has given results.

am i the only one who's not anxious about august 1? i feel everyone is very worried about it, and i feel different about it, i think "august 1" is an opportunity to buy more bitcoins, especially if the price will go down.?

People here are champions when it comes to exaggerating certain situations/happenings. People just assume there will be a chain split, while in reality there may not be one happening at all. If I point percentages to a chain split becoming reality, and a chain split not becoming reality, it would be sitting on 50/50. People here make it seem like the percentage ratio sits more at 90/10. Roll Eyes
That is just human nature, people are wired to listen to bad news rather than good ones, this is why if you see any newspaper or anything similar, you will see that most of the news are bad news, that is why even if the chance of a split of the network is not as high as it seems, people cannot stop to think and talk about it.

Bitcoin price is now close to $2000 level. I advise you to hold. For me im just waiting and waiting until i see a good time to buy. I will not sell, i will onky buy. When it goes below $2000 then i will buy a few then wait again to see then will buy again after that.

Just dont sell for it will go to the moon. Just keep on buying to make and create a high demand.

Just hoping Bitcoin value stops falling after August 1, 2017, so that our Bitcoin investment will not be affected...

i am not afraid of august one and i am sure that everything is fine and still under controlled. if there will be a split with bitcoin, i still believe that bitcoin value will increase especially the price although there is any down trend. but now, before segwit is applied, there is many traders is panic and they selling bitcoin to play safe and it cause the price is down.

The upcoming day of August 1 is just a week or two weeks far from now. It is quite alarming that Segwit is just as far as the moon to the Earth and here comes the signals of the upcoming event. The price value of bitcoin is now dumping and it makes many users afraid of the Segwit day. But still hoping that the price value will comeback after the event or the best is it will be doubled.

I think it will be a good day to buy up Bitcoin and also celebrate because we will be moving forward with better technology. Bitcoin is going to grow up and progress on August 1st.

I don't think so. The value of Bitcoin fell gradually starting July 7, 2017...

Bitcoin value: $2581.46 - July 7, 2017
Bitcoin value: $2482.85 - July 10, 2017
Bitcoin value: $2370.97 - July 13, 2017
Bitcoin value: $2254.59 - July 14, 2017
Bitcoin value: $2206.73 - July 15, 2017
The major reason for this constant dip is regular speculations like happening in this thread too. Segwit2x and UASF are being brought only for the betterment. Yes, there are threats of possible chain split if Segwit2x didn't get activated before UASF. This indeed has created chaos and panic ( specially in short term investors or traders or newbies). For long term investors, it is better to wait and relax and hold your private keys.
