I'm not scared, I invested into bitcoin knowing that I could potentially lose a lot. As for August 1st, we don't know what will happen but I have a good feeling that it will be alright and we will see Bitcoin rise higher than ever potentially into $4,000.

We know what will happen with the said date but are you willing to take a risk to hold your Bitcoins or maybe some Altcoins. We are in the 'Red days' for how many weeks now and I think it is because of too many people is scared in what will be the results of Segwit on August 1.

Some of my thoughts in how most of us think.


*I will sell my Bitcoins first then buyback after august 1*

*I will sell my Altcoins because it is nowhere to going up anymore*
Buying bitcoin after august 1 has more risk losing money because, if the chain split happen, there will be 2 chains right? Now, whatever chain is the longest chain in blocks will be the main chain and the other one will be discarded so, if you buy bitcoin on uasf chain, and the old chain is the longest, the uasf coin you bought will be discarded so, you will lose funds same thing with old chain. If i were you don't do anything until the split is complete.

Well, I am not really scared of August the first, since I have all my bitcoin on a hardware wallet and I have all my private keys, which means that when the hard fork comes, I will have full control of my bitcoin, unlike online wallets. Segwit should solve a lot of problems that are related to transaction fees, and should make bitcoin better and smoother to use. Some people I know are selling bitcoin right now, and then re buying after August the first, just in case of what happens, but I don't think this is a good idea, due to how low bitcoin has dropped now, the price right now is just above 2k and this seems to be pre segwit panic.

Well i don't scare to hold until August 1st even my bitcoins be an altcoin because of the activation segwit2x on bitcoin's network
because actually i have made calculated about risk investing in bitcoins,
 i have made investing not in bitcoins only some my money to be invested on altcoins are like ethereum so the risk losing money can be minimalized because i don't investing in one coin.

Same with you, i made investing in some altcoin not only bitcoin. I still have chance to make profit when bitcoin price going down, but sometime i got double loss when bitcoin and altcoin going down together like this time.
I'll hold some to see what will happen after august 1 and some of them i'll use for trading altcoin. I also have learning about risky in bitcoin, when sometime i must lost some% of my money i dont scare because i know its risky investing in bitcoin.
Yes we have same mindset, and about your doubles loss because when bitcoins and altcoins goes down together like this time
i think in the future we must have reserve capital on fiat currency to anticipate the condition like this, but i think the down trend of all of digital coins will be end soon, because the price are starting stable right now, that is mean the price will be going up again.

i don't scared with august 1, i still want to hold my bitcoin, i want to see what is happen in that date. if bitcoin price is down, then i can buy again but if bitcoin price is up, then i can sell in any high price that i want. its the same with my altcoins and i don't want to sell too soon because of my portfolio is down to bottom. its better to hold my altcoin than to cut loss because my bitcoin in the end is not increase and only get reduce.

To be honest I am not scared to hold my btc until august 1 because if there will be surge after august 1 it will be a huge success and if there would be downfall after august 1 then i will hold it and will wait for the price to rise.
You will never feel scared if you know well about what will happen with bitcoin in August. I think you've seen the schedule for the scaling of bitcoin. that gives a lot of the explanation regarding what will be happening with the bitcoin in the early until the mid of August. But there is an explanation BIP148 proof of work change. Interesting for a watch. It will be a huge success of the chain will not be forked and another shitty clone of bitcoin such as BTU with the greedy team.  Roll Eyes

Hey, to don't have a hardfork this UASF must not be activated?

Is BIP148 the opposite of UASF? (If one is accepted, the other can't be).

Bitcoin got this far because we have always believed in it and why stop now? Come what may, I will keep holding my coins and wait for this highly feared day to pass Tongue hope it comes with good intentions.

Yes indeed bitcoin survive for how many years and nothing can stop it. Even though there is bloody red right now in the market we'll still hope for the best to happen. Better trust bitcoin and altcoin, what meant to happen will happen, so let it be. Hold it as you can.

I'm not scared, but I'm a bit worried about it, anyway I will take the risk and see what happens... I won't sell my Bitcoins to buy again after August 1.

However, everyone can change their mind yet about it, the hot news will come on the last week, probably. Better to keep an eye on it to know what to do.

I guess for me i will still hold my bitcoin until august 1 we knoe that it is already risky in that times because the bitcoin price could dump in. Half but i still believed that the segwit will be successful in that day and double its price in the market but your srill the one who deside.

We still does not know what will exactly be the result of the said Segwit on August 1 but the assurance of the answer on that is just a fight between win or lose situation. If you think that you might lose that much in holding into your assets, then you can sell it for an easy money and of course assurance. But if you think that you will just take the risk of holding your assets, its your own decision. Because the one who will be the beneficiary is just yourself. We do not have to get into panic and start to be scared of the upcoming event. What we can just do is to prepare until it settle down.

As I recently started the bitcoin quest, I don't have a big amount of them, so I am  holding them till then, and we will see. I believe that even if it hit bitcoin, and it's value go down, it will eventually rise it's value because I see potential in bitcoin
Actually Im not afraid Im ready this Aug1. Whatever may happen Im still holding my bitcoin and well see its price. Because until now Im holding and I beleive it will rise again its price. So lets observe this coming Aug1.

The best option is "do nothing" because everything else is speculation. You don't know what is going to happen so not even you can "make a plan". This must be FUD or you have time travel technology. :-D

I might cash out 80% and leave 20% of my portfolio before August 1st. At least I'll have something to fall back to if the 20% goes down to almost nil.
Something to fall back on? Have you gone all in? If so, then I'm sorry to say, but that's probably the worst mistake you can make, generally speaking.

In most cases people who constantly worry about what the market will do, are either heavily over-invested, or they have gone all in. In both cases it's a silly error.

Other than that, I don't know what's wrong with people lately ~ more and more rookies pop up thinking the price will fall back all the way to zero. Take your money out and never come back!!

We've had a discussion about this a few hours back today and most of us came to the same conclusion, to sell 50% and hold the other 50% (speaking of bitcoin).

I'm waiting for this August like it's the new years eve.

Yes it did survived for long time and right now we are going to be scared? There's nothing be fear of, I'm only going to fear if news coming out tells that no one wants to use bitcoin anymore. But it's different, people wants to use bitcoin and with this happening it's just making the price of bitcoin at dip because of false information before Aug 1.
