Topic: Buy more bitcoin or wait for August 1st? - page 15. (Read 20383 times)
Yes, i will wait for August 1st as i have no enough amount to invest money. Moreover, my friends suggested to buy bitcoin in 1st week of August with their personal experiences.
Wait to buy is never a good option from my experience. The best thing to do is buy a bit at time; small amounts when price is relatively high, bigger amounts when we experience a drop, hold and watch when the price is really high.
For now I see the price going down soon before the fork, that will be a good time to buy a bit more. Also after the fork we might see different scenarios, but we sure hope it will go to the moon

I am waiting because i am a bit lost this days, and a lot more pessimist. so i will see what do after, or maybe sold everthing before 
Do not sell your bitcoins before or even for a few years because selling will not help you to become rich and it will just cut the connection of you and also the opportunity of getting rich. Just hold on and keep dreaming for a higher price because it is better than worrying about the price and also for selling bitcoin, there is no better than patience because it always pays off.The improvement in increment of its worth is in front of everyone. Many people have use it as their business and they have enhanced their financial status by keeping bitcoin for quite longer time and when the exchange rate of bitcoin reached their target they used to sell the bitcoins.
So my initial plan was to invest more into bitcoin on a weekly basis but with the possibility of a split on August 1st I figured I'd wait a little. If there would be a split, there would certainly be a drop in price so maybe a good opportunity to pick some more up rather than doing it now. Normally I tend to make these kind of decisions for myself but since I don't fully understand what will happen August 1st I figured this would be the best place to ask.
There will be no split on August first.
If you are going to buy bitcoins, I suggest that you buy some before the activation of segwit on August. Maybe a week before August. Bitcoin's price is expected to drop at that time because of some people who might panic sell some coins because they are afraid of the uncertainties about the upcoming event. After the activation, the price will go up.
I'm buying half prior and half after. Getting ready to make my front side purchase.
Good luck.
Good luck.
Everything can happen on this crypto world. Joining their world means that you must dare to accept anything that will happen on bitcoin.
Personally I'm still hold it as long as possible since I do not want to create panic sell
yes every think can happen but it does not mean that we quite trading or investment. we need to take the risk and invest money in bitcon and only through this way we can make good profit Personally I'm still hold it as long as possible since I do not want to create panic sell
Actually, we have no clear answer that after 1st August bitcoin would be down or not. Then suppose after 1st August bitcoin's price grew up then you could also miss the chance to buy the bitcoin at this price. Then better is that see your pocket and then buy it, if you want. Otherwise, in my view, it is not a valid reason to wait for 1st August even you have no proof and only consume that bitcoin's price down.
is it rumor or true about 1st August?at first, we have to make sure what will happen that day, in this purpose we have to take decision what we will do. for the purpose of making the profit we need to take a risk, if I had enough money then I would buy more bitcoin for that day, but I think there will be nothing at that day...

Just like you, I also feel confused in making this choice. But many people say "better buy now do not wait 1st aug", but until now I have not been able to determine the answer.

Current prices are normal even though bitcoin fluctuate a lot everyday but still in the normal range.
Before August 1st become official, it's a great time to buy more bitcoin as we know after segwit activated, its price will significant increase obviously. $2500-2600 has been marked for today, don't be late.
I suppose you should observe the charts and time your buy order. Bitcoin price is dipping so if you think it won't slip any further, then it's the best time to buy some. The fork is aimed at improving bitcoin and not downgrading it, so results of the fork should further bitcoin price and by then, you will have gained already.
I'm thinking of selling 50% of my alts to enter BTC before August 1st, in case it shoots up, and if it doesn't shoot up, then alts will dip anyhow and I can buy back cheaper....am I right or is that stupid?
That depends on how much of your portfolio is composed of alts and how much is accounted by BTC. If your portfolio is like 80% alt and 20% BTC, then there will be no harm in converting half of your alts to Bitcoin. On the other hand, if 80% of your portfolio is composed of BTC, then it may be better for you to hold on to your altcoins.
I'm currently on about 90% Alts and 10% BTC.
I might make it 50/50 before the day of reckoning and then see what happens.
theres no such thing that prediction like this is going to be true august is a good month for us always to used bitcoin since bitcoin is becoming kore popular we can't decide whether it gonna be the last price for it it will become more in demand and become more useful for each and every one so maybe let it be and don't think too much for it bitcoin has its own future for his self tho.
There are so many opinions about what will happen after 1st of august that my brain already is cooked about "what to do".I decided not to do anything)Just HODL.
BUT to start investing - I would wait if I were you until september

Well you should see that coming because no one here knows what will happen-- we have no psychic powers lol, as a result there's a bunch of guesses either supported with facts
or w/o. the trick is consider what they's say but don't believe them yet do your own research but yah if you're unsure better to hold.
uhhh what will happen on sept. that will lower its price lol. buying as early as possible is still the best choice for me.

I believe no one can say what will happen after this split.
We might see a jump in the price and we might see huge sell and falling price.
What do you think will happen to the other coins (ETH and other coins) after this split?
Do you think other coins will behave the same or the other way (investors might see other coins as a safe place to hold their currencies during the change).
I am afraid that there is a possibility that bitcoin value will down, but I am wishing that it will go up and not to go down, this is what I really afraid of "August 1", hoping that what will happen be good news for all of us. We might see a jump in the price and we might see huge sell and falling price.
