Hi All,
I mostly use my hardware wallet to save most of my bitcoins where I have access to my private key.
However, I also keep a good amount of bitcoin in my online BlockChain wallet for quick trading transfers.
my question is, do I need to worry about my bitcoins I hold in my online wallet? Will it be safe? What can be the consequence of of August 1st network split on my bitcoins?
Can anyone please give me an answer?
Yes , ofcourse you need to worry . And even if you hold much amount of the bitcoin in your blockchain wallet then it would be more better for you to withdraw and out the wallet where your private key are safe , because I have not yet heard about the blockchain to get split support ( in this forum ) .
And in case of the exchange wallet , then I don't think that there is anything to take tension because most of the exchange already announced that they are ready for fork and any type of spliting .
So I think these types of the statement by the exchange are directly saying that we will give coins ( BCC or anything if happened) .
So just make yourself tension free for those bitcoin that you have in exchange and in private key accessible wallets .
But be careful for the blockchain direct wallet because I didn't found any information about it , since it is official but here it would be better for you to get BCC like coins for the future .
