I have my BCC ready in Bittex for selling but when I was checking the BitcoinCash community, they were all very optimistic about the chances of BitcoinCash to become one of the most successful coins in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Now I am thinking of holding them instead. I want to know what would you do? Hold or sell, and why?
BCH has a good enough price if you want to sell, you could wait a little bit longer if you want to obtain more profits but as soon everyone is able to drop its BCH we are going to see a massive dump in the coin, a dump that I do not think it is going to survive.

The core developers cant stop the hardfork, only miners backing out of the agreement can.

And there's a very good chance they will. Segwit was production ready regardless of how anyone feels about it. As far as I can tell no one's seen 2X code yet outside of the little bunch of fellas making it. I don't think miners are bonkers enough to pin all their investments on something so rushed from a bunch of unknowns.

The devil is in the detail.
I tend to agree with most people on this forum, a huge pump is inevitably coming for BCC I cant say when but like everyone else here I can see the miners switching chains with the snap of their fingers if Core doesn't get onboard with 2MB block scenario.

LOL, your subject has nothing to do with your question, what the hell Grin



Yes it looks that way but the hard decision comes from the question. If I sell now and BitcoinCash goes to $1000 by December while Bitcoin's price stays the same then I would have lost.

But I see that some of the opinions here are more or less the same as mine, and that is to keep holding some for a profit.

It's possible that BCH will have some more pumps in the future, but eventually it will die, simply because it's a shitcoin with zero innovation. Big blocks is not something new, lots of altcoins have different block sizes, block times, and other minor tweaks. The market has proven that all that stuff doesn't work and can only make the network less secure if it will start hitting transaction cap. Don't listen to hype, don't get investment advice from strangers, study how crypto works to make your own judgement. 95% of big price moves are caused by whales to just fill their own pockets.

I'm no fan of bcash, I hate the idea of it.

Now, I believe it will be pumped prior to the November deadline for 2x.

I think we'll see, 0.13-0.25 to BTC by then.

@3550 $435-837

@5000 $650-1250

So I guess the answer is maybe?

I just hold any airdropped coins. More than anything, it's just a nuisance to access most of my coins, and not worth the risk of screwing something up. I might miss some quick cash now, but there's a slight chance Bitcoin Cash has a bright future (or at least some pumps, like any other altcoin). As such, I'm doing nothing, and just holding my bitcoins (and my BCC).

You should put your allegiances aside and put your greedhead hat on.

BCH, or whatever it is, is going to have a smaller supply than BTC no matter what. Plenty of people will be too stupid or lazy to claim it. Others will have sold straight into the hands of pumpers already and will do so again when Poloniex and Coinbase release them.

If it's a pure alt, and it is, then it's inevitably going to become a whale toy like all the others. On top of that it comes with the big block agenda baked in and at least a few of them have very deep pockets and the hunger to scare BTC.

A super pump is inevitable in my opinion. Selling at this price level is fine for something that cost nothing, but it was created to make a point so sell it when that point is being made.

It'll whipsaw around forever now. The ETH flippening scared enough people, can you imagine how much a whale inspired BCH flippening would make?

And if there's another generalised alt tsunami upwards never forget the classic noob mind set of 'hey, it's Bitcoin but it's CHEAPER. Wow.'

One of the best, wisest posts i have read in weeks.

I'm holding mine at the moment but I think I'm going to dump them soon. Maybe I'll keep 5 or something but the free money seems too good an opportunity to ignore atm. I don't want to see them fall to below $100 & totally regret not selling so I will probably sell sooner rather than later.

I have sold most of my free bitcoincash quite early but price is still under that price where I have sold mine, However I am still afraid to put anything in BCC because price can get another round of dump to $200. I might buy some of them if price go under  $300 again.

If it should go once more below $200 I think there will be lots of traders using this opportuniy. Bcash imo will be a coin driven mostly by lots of speculation, pump and dump schemes.
Although I'm 100% pro core and SegWit, from a traders perspective I'm having an eye on that thing, as many others as well I believe.

Spurn wild goose chases. Seek that which endures.
Usually, if someone likes a coin, that person will think it has a bright future.

That said, if you're worried that you might be getting off the rocket by selling your BCC, I'd suggest hedging! You can sell most of it, take profit immediately, but still hold the rest Just In Case it sees major appreciation after all.

Bitcoin's real threat is Ethereum.

The one and only reason 95% or more of people are in ETH is to make more money. If Bitcoin Cash looks like there'll be more to make expect mass migrations. With the familiarity and FOMO factors it's potentially a much, much more potent threat.

It will increase in value IF it is used to move money. If not, then the price will languish. It's early days at the moment.

Bitcoin's real threat is Ethereum.

Looking at the following chart comparing bitcoin and ethereum transactions, bitcoin has fallen back and more transactions are occuring on the ethereum network:

Ether is the red line and btc is the blue line - see how the blue line drops sharply and the red line rises.

You should hold all your BCC offline in a hardware wallet as a hedge against BTC price crashing. Around November when the hard fork portion of SegWit2X does not happen miners who would like to take over control of bitcoin may just move massive amounts of hashing power to Bitcoin Cash. Time between blocks for Bitcoin will slow more and more till it takes days for a transaction to confirm. Bitcoin Cash will have low fees, quick confirmations and the public may abandon Bitcoin for Bitcoin Cash. Both may exist together for awhile. This is the black swan scenario; hope it does not occur but you should hold your BCC in case it does.

Same here. I am also holding all of my Bitcoin Cash coins. I have studied in detail about Bitcoin Cash, and I think that its future is very bright. I will give it 1 year. If the prices stay below $200 per coin even after that, then I'll dump my coins.

Where is my ring of blades...
right now BCC (BCH) market is very small and despite all the sell pressure it is easily getting manipulated and swings around. I have been enjoying the profit that it gives me so far, I've transferred some coins to bittrex in addition to what I already had before Aug 1st to get the BCC and I have been trading it in the past 8-9 days. I don't have any hopes for it to go to $1000 though. it most probably will continue fluctuating like this and give us profit until the regular users can finally get their hands on their BCC tokens and dump them, that's when real crash happens and it would be tough to go to $1000 from there.
