I think you have to observe "But the rumor sell the news" but in reverse. Which means BTC is being or has been sold and buying will start on Aug 1 (or a bit sooner or later once segwit has settled and it's safe to do so).  Wink

I don't see any positive scenario for altcoins. If BTC drops because segwit is a mess, alts will drop way more and and if segwit succeeds, altcoins will also be sold as a form of reverse flippening.

As many opinions as people  Cheesy

Thank you all for the great insights and advice. I'm still a strong supporter of ETH for its potential but it was not meant to be a currency like BTC. It is indeed crazy, as someone mentioned, to have 90% ETH, which is why I was planning to diversify. With ETH testing the $150 support now and all the crypto-currencies going down since a few weeks, I'm considering reverting to fiat until things settle down in August. I hate to give up and panic sell but maybe this is the best ATM. Inputs welcome...

nope rather this is the right time to sell bitcoin and buy eth. bitcoin is already on its massive down time where the split of chain will happen and segwit is coming this august 1st in eth i have some good result this fast few weeks and im already loving it . eth is also crypto currency thats why it's usable in my daily transaction in my business.
Yes, I agree, starting August the bitcoin price may go down, maybe it's better to buy eth than to buy bitcoin. But if you do believe in bitcoin, maybe buy bitcoin, but we all have been advised to prepare for the worst possible in August.
Can not be sure bitcoin prices will decrease when segwit occur. Some news does state that bitcoin prices are down but there is also a reliable analys who says that bitcoin prices will increase. So for me at this time everything is still limited to speculation, no news stating the truth. We will see it all on the 1st of August, everything will be felt when the time has come.

It seems to me that such operation is not bring any profit. The decline of bitcoin prices entails lower prices for all other crypto currency. What is the meaning of sell cheap Eth to buy cheap bitcoin? After August 1, prices will rise on everything. Bicon profitable to buy only Fiat.

ETH is strong don't sell strong coin, sell shit coin and hold both btc and eth, i would keep your ETH for now, it won't fall much until it get pumped again after this 1 august drama ends

actually for now that everyone is dumping i would hold everything, and i'll wait for the next pump before doing my move

Yes, ETH is really powerful, it is even more powerful than LTC, however, if you want to compare it and bitcoin, I assert that it is not strong enough to beat bitcoin, it is still a young coin late.
I agree and the price of ETH is also not favorable now. Nearly all of the traders are sure about the date 1 August for big markets volatility and speculations. Even if the prices of altcoins will fall, ETH (and i think also ETC) there are going to resist to fall. If the price of altcoins will increase, their performance will be better than many altcoins and of course bitcoin.

[1]- Will BTC crash at the end of the month due to the uncertainty around the fork(s)?
[2]- Is BTC likely to split into two viable chains, thus giving coins on both chains to those who owned BTC beforehand?

[1] Likely there is a chance that there will be a crash but expect that after crash, rise is going to follow it.
[2] Yes but it's only applicable if you will store your bitcoins into an offline wallet because there's no assurance that the exchange can support both chains, so secure yourself.

Yes, it is a good time to buy btc and eth as its price still at this point and we know the potential of both of it could rise significant within weeks.
However, if you doubt whether bitcoin or ethereum prices will be drop futher in case of negative news regarding bitcoin, I suggest to wait until July 21th when they test segwit2x into the blockchain network, if many bitcoiners/miners support it then its price will rise and vice versa.

Buying bitcoin is a good idea expect that ethereum will drop this coming few months and i think if you are holding good amount of ethereum if you stay holding them expect to that the price will decrease more . better to sell them early and convert into bitcoin before august.. I don't what will be exactly will happen in bitcoin but i feel that we will see a good result after splitting..
So in august 1 just dont't deal to someone just to be safe to your bitcoin ..
The splitting is an irrelevant thing, the complete statement about the hardfork of bitcoin BIP148 will be activated in 1 August, but there are no more words that have the relationship with the splitting of the bitcoin blockchain.
Did you read the latest news before trying to spread the bullshit thing about splitting the bitcoin blockchain? Are want to make another people scared with the rumour about the splitting of the bitcoin blockchain?  Roll Eyes

I disagree about ETH.

I believe that ETH will eventually get back into the double or even single digits before it's all over, so if I were the OP I would get out of ETH asap.

Run for the hills and buy some bitcoin!

Totally agree. Litecoin went up to $50 each, then dropped to $1 each. I expect the Ethereum crash to be very violent...as in SINGLE DIGITS.

It is a wise decision when Bitcoin prices are down, you can stock Bitcoin and wait for it to increase. Besides, I'm still worried that Bitcoin will crash but there are no concrete evidences of what will happen now.
If i really had the capability to predict the market swings then i would have being a millionaire by now,it is really difficult to predict how the market will react if at all there is a split and my guess is that people might get scared off and sell off their coins,till the time comes the only thing you can do is speculation.

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.

Just a thought, wow about moving to USDT if one is afraid of a crash?
Stay away from USDT, before you buy USDT read their tos.

ETH dump has just begun, i've read on reddit that EOS is dumping ETH for fiat. what would happen if other ICOs start unloading ETH? the price will go down significantly!

Either go all in Bitcoin or sell everything and move it to bank if you can. If btc falls, alts will fall more, so it is not a good idea to try to hedge against btc falls going to altcoins. Well, at least it is a risky idea.

If you hold Bitcoin you may get some free alt if there is a fork

But recent days condition is not like that alts like ethereum, litecoin, dash and Dodge seems to settle on their own price. Growth of alts is better than bitcoin from this February onwards. I see the even bitcoin is moving upwards from yesterday. What so ever happen bitcoin will be always top.

I have never really believed in ETH so I would had advised you to sell ETH when you had the chance to sell it for $350+ but well it's not too late if you are still profiting from selling now then do it. But there are also some people who believe that ETH may cross $500 soon, so its all up to you what you think will happen. If you want to play safe go with BTC. I am thinking that once BTC is back to its glory, hopefully after segwit, ETH might suffer a larger dump.

to avoid unpredictable results regarding august 1 i think keep 90% your ETH is more safe now and for those who don't dare holding bitcoin untill end of this month indeed move their funds to altcoins could be wise acts but holding altcoins also isn't that safe especially major atcoins currently dropped too but rather than wait unsure situations for hardfork i personally more prefer hold ETH or buying another altcoins

I think you are too highly invested in ETH (OP). It would be wise for you to diversify your crypto wealth & become more heavily invested in bitcoin.

If I was you I'd go 60% bitcoin, 40% ETH.

I love it when you diversify and get a wide portfolio but honestly, 60/40 with btc/eth may very well be the worst investment advice I've seen here on bct. Cool if you run like that but I'd barely even call that a portfolio, not diversified by any means either Grin

It is hard to tell for now, the future of bitcoin after segwit is still unsure, but it is a good idea to split your eth into bitcoin, I believe bitcoin will be more valuable than eth in the future and bitcoin value wont decrease so easily

You believe that bitcoin will be more valuable than eth in the future? Lol. We've been there forever already and eth will never be able to touch btc, I'd bet on that if I were a gambling man.

I think that if Segwit activates successfully BTC will increase its dominance again drastically and the altcoins will suffer badly. I think we'll just get the reverse of what we had over the last six months as altcoins increased so much because BTC was stagnating and so people diversified.

And if Segwit fails on Aug 1st BTC will drop but the alts will drop much much more because to cash out alts you need to sell to BTC and then sell the BTC to fiat.

So a this time I'm only holding BTC because IMHO it will hold up itself best whatever happens on August 1st.

Just my 2 cents...

Excuse me, last 6 months btc was stagnating? Not sure if we are living on the same planet, lol.

As for Segwit activation, I think btc will come out stronger but that does not have to be at cost of alts. Both can increase together.

LOL you are correct BTC progressed nicely but much less than the alts so my mind was a bit clouded and that's why BTC's progressed seemed "insignificant"  Grin

I get what you are saying but you also have to take in to consideration that you can't always go off of % increase. Any coin that costs a couple of cents now can be pumped up to a few dollars and have thousands of % increase. That's not really a fair point to make at that. Btc increased almost 250%, at that price it's much more difficult to see that kind of increase.

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.
Chain split is indeed a possible outcome in worst case scenario. You can't just deny that. The problem is that the UASF does not seem to have much community support. This would likely lead to a chain split. It is certainly a possibility that there will not be a Bitcoin chain split in the end. But preparing for the worst is never a bad idea. But these plenty of speculation regarding the fork could very well result in drop of Bitcoin price.

However, any altcoin will never take bitcoin place. They might be a short term substitution till the events unfold. But at the end Bitcoin will come back to its initial position.

Of course a chain split could happen, anything could, but it is not very likely. I can't see that it would be in anyone's best interest to do that. Except for Roger ver perhaps but he is a one off, lol.

As for the alts, glad we are on the same page. Not sure what kind of delusion is needed to actually believe it'll happen.

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.
This is a difficult thing to predict. In fact, I see that ETH is higher than BTC. If you want to be safe from ETH price collapse you can sell and invest in bitcoin or you want to make a profit at the present time to sell ETH to make a profit. If I hold some ETH then I will sell to have some extra money. I am in need of money so I just have to say what I will sell.

You sure i don't trade with ethereum but it is the most volume on every exchange and price was some 0.07 i guess and today was at 0.09 so this indicates that price is rising so why would you want to sell and ethereum was 0.15 at a time this would be a bad idea

i don't think that is the right time to sell your ETH because until now, the price is around 0.08 btc and if you bought in high price, you need to wait more. but if you bought in lower price, i think you can sell right now and make a nice profit and you can have bitcoin. maybe BTC will crash at the end of this month but we don't expecting crash into deep.

If you have enough money you can have both as both are good to invest or buy right now since both BTC and ETH dropped specially ETH which dropped significantly. One good thing about ETH is its being used now join ICO's. There are speculations out there that ETH will reach $1,000 USD, its still a long way to go but its a possible.

Seems a right suggestion still after ethereum networks' clog in recent times many developers are suspecting about its scalablity to support rapidly growing smart contracts. Also ethereum plans for adopting hybrid consensus of both pos and pow. Other than auguest 1st drama, etheretum has its own reasons for its recent downfall. We must consider them before deciding to continue holding them.

You better hold on to your Ethereum as it has already dipped much and can be resisting at its current level. Tow weeks ago, I sold some of my Bitcoin to buy some Eth at $340 level believing that Eth would continue to rise as a fall-out of the coming Bitcoin's August 1 thing. Alas, to my surprise, Ether made a big slide to where it is now...I lost some money along the way because I listened too much to my panicking side. What a shame for me!

I should have just hold to my Bitcoin because even with the recent slide, the loss is not as big as with my Ethereum. It is a sad lesson for me. We have to remember that newbies should always remember not to panic that much because the Bitcoin market would eventually rebound.

As for Eth, the chance for it to get back to the $340 level is always there so I am also waiting for that time. Let us just continue on believing on the coins we are investing with.

- 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.

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.

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
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.
