I think most people assumed that BCH would be a failure and would be worth 0, so they just brushed it off and didn't bother with cold storaging, but now since it has value, everybody wants their cut.
They could have done things a lot easier by holding their coins and now everyone is crying for the coins.
Since primedice made an announcement of not giving Bch oo btc onsite after fork, they are not liable for it. I just don't feel coinbase should change what they initially stated.
You mean "before" the fork.
Yes Coinbase said the exact same thing, and BCC launched and almost reached $1000 and people are basically lawyering up. Since its not $0, and everybody wants their cut.
Then they even updated their FAQ and saying that they "might" release it to their customers. Most likely they will take this route to avoid these litigations that their legal team doesn't want to go thru.
Wonder if people will be doing the same with PrimeDice.
