Topic: How is everyone feeling going into Aug 1? - page 4. (Read 3123 times)

the weather is strange today...

normally when BTC goes down everything else follow it, and vice versa.

today, BTC goes up alone, everything else falls.

may the force with BTC

Not worried at all, I want this day to come and pass I fell it stinky now talking anymore about the August 1.
Everything will be fine till the moment you control your emotions. The time when you lose control and become greedy will be the moment to get worried about. I have nothing else to say more than best wishes to all the bitcoin users.
Be yourself and don't let anyone misguide you.

If you have secured your coins then no need to worry. Actually I'm ecstatic and eager to see what will happen in Aug 1 and after. Some say its doomsday day or something, so I wanna see how this so called doomsday scenario will really turns out. And I believed that it will be just an ordinary day for bitcoin because it will succeed in dealing with it. No need to panic. We just need to stay calm and let the storm pass by.

Agree gan we do not need to panic, ane itself calm and silent what will happen will not affect our income.

You dont have to be worried,ensure your btc is secure in a wallet,i can assure you with that your btc is safe.
Hopfully few days after Aug 1 btc will be on d increas.

The attack is always on the exchange, if you store it in a ledger or something like that I think your BTC will be safe. The wallet on exchange is not a personal asset, so consider when you place your property on the exchange

You are right for this, I think no need to panic and do not need to be feared for such a thing, most importantly we do not have to transact on 1-2 August, because all will cause your Btc will disappear, so better silence and sit sweet in a comfortable place , See how it will happen.

Is the split really going to happen? I have been reading about it a lot lately but I still find it hard to believe that this split will happen. My assumptions are not final,  they are just assumptions. I guess we will just have to wait and see,  rather be on the safe than to be sorry,  don' t make any transactions from 31- 2nd August maybe.

I think I am being happy because finally bitcoin is on it's way of improving. Yes, there are people who are taking advantage of us users but I think solving a problem comes another problem, and I think the problem now is the people making the moves behind the big shadows.

Same with lots of people here, not worried at all.

Honestly Im excited on what will really happened after August 1st. I want that day to come now so that we aren't stuck at speculating and let's see what this will bring, good or bad, advantage and disadvantage.

Im optimistic not because as simply as Im saying that word easily. Im optimistic because we have reasons to become like that. Stay tuned.

There is pretty less probability of a chain split as most Miners have agreed to the segwit and I am looking towards decreased transaction fees and confirmation times.

Can't say I have any real concerns.  I'm pleased that UASF didn't set a precedent of what I'd personally deem to be an "unnatural" consensus, closer to force or coercion to comply than a "natural" fork would be (although I recognise that not everyone would share that view).  I'm honestly indifferent towards BCC at the moment.  I don't see it as any kind of takeover attempt and become more convinced by the day that anyone who genuinely believes it is might be short of a few braincells.  There's still an undeniable schism in ideology of on-chain vs off-chain transactions, so in my mind it's perfectly understandable that not everyone would want to lend full and unquestioning loyalty to any particular dev team if they feel their view isn't being represented in that team's vision.  Deny this if you like, but that's what being in denial looks like.

At the end of the day, this isn't a dictatorship and we don't all have to subscribe to the same philosophy to move forward.  If people want to fork away, they're perfectly welcome to do so.  No one gets to pretend that they can say with any certainty whatsoever that anyone else's motives for forking away are malicious.  It's their choice and they can choose to do it for whatever reason they wish.  Whether that fork is successful or not, nothing results in any current dev team losing influence or being unable to continue producing code for their preferred chain.  Mostly, I just wish people could get that simple notion into their heads and STFU about "hostile takeovers", "taking control", "benevolent dictators", etc and stop trying to cram their authoritarian views down every else's throats.

I also wish people had given more consideration to the notion that the blocksize doesn't have to be an integer.  But I suspect we've now moved beyond the point where such wishful thinking is constructive.  I'm not convinced that SegWit2x is the best solution moving forwards, but I can accept it's the one most people are likely to get behind.  I suppose that's good enough.

That's where I'm at right now.

I am worried about blockchain's general health after 1 August, not price. I hope everything is gonna be fine and everyone will enjoy using bitcoin. So I am worried.

90% miner has agreed to split, I am disappointed after rumors that it will not happen hardfork. Softfork seems to be just a political issue. I hope it does not affect the current BTC price until the next few months.  

 For me. I do not feel worried about the attack and the Tuesday tomorrow. Because my btc is safe.btc down or up, still profit ..

I'm also not worried, I'm optimistic and I hope everything will be fine after August 1 or few days later and that's something I hope will resolve at least some (if not all) of the issues with bitcoin for some months to come. Let's hope for the best.

I feel very annoyed eventually and I want it to pass away so quick!

I'm optimistic, I feel that BCC will either die out or be like what ETC is to ETH, literally nothing.
Whatever the case may be, Bitcoin is finally moving forward.

I think everyone is sick to the back teeth with August 1st already and just want cryptoshere to move the fuck on away from all the politics. I know that I am.

I am not really too worried as this process would just be another step towards the development of bitcoin. If something goes wrong, it would eventually be corrected or resolved. Having more doubts wouldn't help any so I just go with the flow and take necessary precautions as we go along.
