Topic: Afraid of August One? - page 4. (Read 25697 times)
I am afraid and have to read some comments, advises and speculations about August one issues. At the end of this month I need to decide what is the best decision that I need to pursue. Lots of people said that it is for good, well, i hope also that it will serve as bridge to make me rich.
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.

Some of the Bitcoin users are afraid and I saw many of them are in panic and sell there bitcoin in a lower price. But I think that is not the solution you must calmdown and relaxed. Changes happern everywhere, changes is the only permanent thing on Earth. Yes as you can see Bitcoin is now decreasing its value but you must wait 2 weeks, 3 weeks or maybe a month for you to buy or sell Bitcoin safely. Because somehow you may loss your Bitcoin in an instance because of the happening today. But yet it has a good cause to everyone who uses cryptocurrency.Again the word 'wait' is our virtue today
Whatever will happen in august 1, I know its for the better future of bitcoin. Maybe some are not afraid, they are just making sure that they wont lose part of their investment in case the bitcoin declined.
After the success of bip91 i am not afraid anymore because i believe that even the price of btc drops down as we see in the past weeks, the price will eventually goes higher. so dont be afraid just hold for and see what will happen in the future.
Price will go up and not go down. If you will see we are still in the midst of a possible split which can result to a creation of Bitcoin Cash (new name). But people adopting to bitcoin is incredibly larger and its speeding up. From India which is booming now in bitcoin adoption, UK with large companies now adopting to bitcoin, Japan made it as legal tender, and many more. TenX company now offering credit card usage with bitcoin as its funding source.
So even though there are some uncertainty in the air, still price is going up because it is being overwhelmed by demand for lots and lots of people are moving to bitcoin for this is the future.
So buy now before you see the price bull again in a couple of days.
Remember that ximply told you so.

What is there to even be afraid of with August 1st? Even with a (remote chance of a) potential chain split and possible network disruption, so what? Even with a subsequent significant drop in price, so what? It's not like the price of bitcoin will continue to freefall. As long as you take the necessary precautions of securing your bitcoins you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Once it all plays out, we'll see what's what and go on from there.
People care because we are talking about money here, and some have invested an important part of their life savings in it, so it is not as easy as you think, bitcoin is going to recover no matter what happens but for those holding coins it is not as easy to recover from huge losses.That's exactly what I was thinking, it's because it involves money and life savings that's why people are worried and nervous, it's not easy to loose this way because of the huge investments that people have in bitcoins and that's what gives me all the hope that things will work out good and Bitcoin will be solidified.

I've sold my bitcoins for $2700 each, and bought Etherium, I think it is good price now.
The currenct price of per Bitcoin is more than 2700 USD each its 2840 Usd per Bitcoin you lost almost 140 USD. 
That's good idea that you sold your bitcoins because may bitcoin get split on 1st august and you get very lower price from now.

Although still there is a very good potential to the price of bitcoin to increase but i think 2700$ is also good time to sell if you are making some profit from it

I am not sure whether it was a good investment,because bitcoin is looking stronger than ever and if you would have said this a couple of days back i would have said that you had done a good job,but with the scaling going smoothly till now and the price recovering so fast,i am not sure whether it is a good move. 
I'm not too hesitant to trade it into fiat until the bitcoin condition after hardfork stabilizes again, the current hacker is targeting all altcoin wallets, making me think to be more vigilant not to exchange many bitcoins into altcoins. Many recent speculations include news that July 24 said that bitcoin trading market in Japan will be closed until the situation stabilizes.
A lot people returning to bitcoin while the future isnt very clear yet, sure some people are taking huge risk buying others altcoins expecting it to pump or atleast return to the values before the crash over bitcoin, but remember if bitcoin cross 3000 dollars and reach lets say 4000 we will see a lot blood and some altcoins might die in those progress.
It is really odd because only a week left until August 1 and bitcoins price went up back again, almost reached $3000. But at first I really got scared of the August 1 event rumors and speculations and decided to just hold on to my coins and bought some altcoins that dumped. But now that it is closing in and a week left, I wasn't afraid anymore.
The price has climbed because it seems that we are going to finally get segwit activated and we are going to avoid a fork at least for now, so the confidence in bitcoin goes up and everyone is happy once again, even then we need to be careful and wait for a signal from trusted sources that everything is ok.

If you store Bitcoin in the online wallet like Blockchain then surely you are scared because it will happen segwit and blockchain will be 2. Keep your Bitcoin in an offline wallet before 1st August so your Bitcoin will not go away.
Yeah. Actually im afraid of spliting btc into two. Because theres a possibilty that the value of btc will go down. But i hope it will be a huge success. I hope that after bitcoin splits the the value will stay the same. Andialso wish that the value is continue to rise.
Not sure, Maybe I'll just buy off all of my bitcoins into other alts.
If something will happen to BTC after Aug1st all the altcoins will get hammered also.
Just take a look what happened the last week.
The altcoins were not having any chain split discussion but got raped on the exchanges.
Your safe bet might not be as safe as you think.
