Why don't you wait until August 1? If BTC is destroyed as a result of the chain split, then there is a strong chance that some altcoin will take its place. And that altcoin can be ETH, LTC or XRP.

Why do you guys keep talking about this so called split that would leave us with two different bitcoins? That's not what is going to happen on August 1st. Either way btc will never be destroyed where an alt would take it's place. Not in our lifetime at least.

There's always a good time to sell eth to buy btc. I salute those who managed to get their shit together and sell their eth stacks at the top because those prices will surely never be seen again any time soon.

I just don't understand how we got to the alt bubble with shitty coins being extremely overvalued yet people kept believing and kept buying. Fools money huh

what if I store my btc on ledger nano s ? Do i have to worried about splitting ?

No. That's probably the best way to store it. Split or not.

- Will BTC crash at the end of the month due to the uncertainty around the fork(s)?

Most probably yes. We will see more drop in the price of bitcoin with nearing of August and after UASF on 1st August, there would be a dip because of panic selling as most of the community members aren't very well aware of the events and they most likely to shift to altcoins because of the risks prevailing in bitcoin market.

- Is BTC likely to split into two viable chains, thus giving coins on both chains to those who owned BTC beforehand?

Only if you hold your private keys. Else if your Bitcoin is on an exchange you will own the coin on blockchain which the exchange will support after the chain split. In case you have your private keys you will get coins on both the blockchains as price will be divided between both of them.

I think it is likely for btc to go up but I don't think that increase is long term if it is passed with segwit2x since the threat of hardfork 2mb is in November. There's a lot of variables to consider but OP if you do plan to have btc make sure you have the private keys so you can collect both coins if there is a chain split.

At the moment my portfolio is about 90% ETH and 10% of various altcoins (no BTC). I would like to diversify by swapping about half of my ETH for BTC. Is it a good time to do so with ETH rallying and BTC being more or less stable?

Basically, what I'm really wondering is:
- Will BTC crash at the end of the month due to the uncertainty around the fork(s)?
- Is BTC likely to split into two viable chains, thus giving coins on both chains to those who owned BTC beforehand?

I'm not fully up-to-date on the latest bitcoin developments so I'd be happy to get some insight.

Thanks

No one is really sure what's gonna happen after the Segwit2x activation. The scenario you have laid may occur, maybe not. If I were you I won't sell my my coins, specially bitcoin. I will not hold on it for the time being and observe what's will happen after the event. I think bitcoin price will really rise along the way in the future.

Yes,more probability is that bitcoin price would rise high much after segwit activation.The reason for that is transaction fee would get reduced and more people would start using bitcoins.So better buy bitcoins now before it goes to the moon.

It always be a good idea to diversify your investment just in case something happens, ethereum seems recover faster than bitcoin but it may drop again after pumped. Yesterday eth drop to $190 and it already started to rise again and set on $227 right now, so be prepared to buy and sell it at the right time.
On the other hand, bitcoin always be the best option to invest my money, whether it drop sometimes or rise up again but it always has happy ending. Do not hesitate to purchase bitcoin, as it should be increase again but be careful about crash that maybe occurs in the next month, better to buy some amount today and wait for another dump for the next purchase.

Diversifying your pocket with various cryptocurrencies isn't a bad idea since any one of it may skyrocket one day
Having bitcoin is a must in my opinion and personally i think that it will pass the 10k one day or even more so why wasting this opportunity?

although it is always good to trade bitcoin, because coin has a lot of potential and it will give you profit at any time, but currency if you are feeling reluctant then you should wait tel 1st August and after that you should invest your money in bitcoin.
