Pick up cheap alts? What, after they've been inflated past all rational valuations? Nah, I think it would be a great idea to sell and take your profit off the table now (if you made one). I definitely wouldn't be buying right now. Bitcoin maybe, but NOT any altcoins.
Yes, most alts should have been dumped already by hodlers, the rise was unsustainable, but some got smaller pumps such as LTC, which only doubled. I sold half of my LTC and made profits, but i'll keep half of it there to hedge against the risk of a potential 51% BU mining support. I think LTC and ETH are decent bets to profit from such an scenario.

Yes. I wouldn't buy any alts eventhough they are down right now. It might be just a false signal they are sending. And you don't want to be caught on those traders placing shorts, then don't buy it. Still go for bitcoin instead, at least the market price is holding. BU schism is over, no one is dumping bitcoin, they are now holding it.
BUcoiners are an aggressive pack that will not give up easily, and they have monetary resources to cause damage. BU is still averaging 36% hashing rate, segwit is always behind.
It all comes down to Wang from f2pool switching to BU all of a sudden, or Jihan Wu deploying further mining operations to go above 51%. In such an scenario, I predict nothing but a BTC selloff.
