How about half before August 1st and half after?

But if you really want my opinion - after. People will be scared on August 1st and it will look bear, then would be the time to buy in my opinion.

No one knows for sure what will happen to bitcoin after the 1st of August, and there are some responses about it that have negative responses as well as some who have positive responses, but all dont have enough evidence to be strong reasons What will happen after August 1st.
Of course all hope will happen something good on bitcoin especially about the rise in bitcoin prices

There is the possibility that bitcoin prices will rise high in August, but we never know for sure. If you want to buy bitcoin, then do not ever hesitate to do it, because if you think positively about it, then the bitcoin price will always go up.  Grin

There is risk. If you want to take risk you should buy btc now. Or if you don't want to take risk then you should wait for 1August.  After that you can buy Btc.

whatever the outcome of this, Bitcoin will surely still be the number 1 crypto in coin market cap. Unless investors will take the negative side and switch next popular to this, but I am sure Bitcoin will stay since most of exchange platforms rely on BTC markets. Though it is certain, once it failed, the increase of its value will sure be affected and may not increase significantly like other experts speculates by the end of the year.

I couldn't agree more, if it fails the rate at which it used to increase will decline but then a lot of the current investors trust it than the other Altcoins and so they might not necessarily abandon it but it will just not be that attractive to newbies and wouldbe investors.

Buy and hold that's all you need to know. Butcoin will do it we all here because we believe in bitcoin. I would say but now,
I just know the price will climb and be a fair amount more by the end of the year. Not much more % wise but still more.

All investments are connected with risk and here it is necessary to make the decision itself that then it was not insulting in case of loss.

i say right now everything depends on the core developers. what they do or say can change the course of bitcoin a lot.

  • if they get behind SegWit2x then you shouldn't have any worry at all. price will rise to the moon. make sure to buy as soon as you heard the news.
  • if they go against it then chain will probably experience a split and i am sure that in case of a split price will take a big hit.
  • if they come to a middle ground and fix things so everyone is half happy, then again that can prevent a chain split and price will rise fast and big.

nobody is going to run miners code without core supporting it

Then we are going to split

And maybe it will be to the better in the long run even if things may look really grim at first. It should be straightforward that the Core won't support SegWit2x. SegWit2x is a Trojan horse intended specifically to force Bitcoin Core to make a wrong step via making it look as if miners are willing to compromise, though it is not clear how they are going to reach a compromise between a soft fork (SegWit) and a hard fork (Big Blocks)

For the fear of unknown movement of the market value of Bitcoin after 1st August one cannot categorically say you should buy or you not buy bitcoin. Remember that for every investment decision one take there is a risk involved. One thing I will advise is that you should  calculate within yourself and see if the risk is worth taken and if your analysis turn the other way then invest your money in something that you think is fruitful and less risky.

We cannot say or determine what will hapoen ubntil the day come. The support of people is there but how long will they hold or invest after August 1?
But actually I reallly believe in bitcoins's ability to lift itself up because for sure there will be investors who will going to hold it no matter what. And also hope  this will not drop down for long since the panic selling will happen on or before the august 1

On August 1st, they will implement the Segwit and there are some uncertainties involved.  If I were wanting to invest, should I do it before or after the date? 

My concern is that the price would still be higher than the price on August 2nd if the implementation did not go as smooth as planned and caused the price to drop.

Also, what is the official words on the implementation? 

that is the problem that you will never know about. bitcoin is always like this. price goes up then there is some kind of drama that the community insists on making bigger and bigger, then everyone starts thinking a drop is possible and sometimes it even is. and after some down time when the market makers accumulated enough price rises again leaving everyone who didn't buy in that downtime, behind.
My only strategy in bitcoin is believing to it because in my experience no matter what happen how deep the dump will be the bitcoin will be always going up because the bitcoin have many back up investors so in that way the only road for bitcoin to take is pump so buying now will be a good choice if you will hold it for a long term.

Agreed. It will recover, eventually. I believe this event will cause a serious drop in the price, for a while. I think we may see ETH surge in value, as it has become a 'safe haven crypto', along with LTC, ZCASH, XMR and XRP. They tend to pop when btc goes up or down; I think it's capital flight, or people using those networks to get around the congestion that always comes with a surge in price. If ETH pops, the ERC20 token gang will pop as well; people may retreat into these assets as they are more akin to stocks than coins, and try to wait it out. But essentially, I see a lot of capitalization moving into alts from BTC. Bitcoin won't die, it may have a bad week or two. Cheap coins IMO Wink

Yes, you should buy bitcoins before august 1 because i believe that the segwit fork for bitcoin will become a successful fork and it will enable bitcoin to transact faster because of its increased size blocks and also a lot of people will get in touch in bitcoin because of its more space network that will help bitcoin to adopt more user in the world that will make the price high.

Many will buy bitcoin for its reason so we should have enough saving by that time since it might get too expensive and we may not able to buy cheap btc or even alts after August 1 ,speculations says also that by that time many countries might open btc and implemented it on their countries.

Actually it depends on your budget if you have funds, just buy now. Buy bitcoin and invest, you will never know the next price of bitcoin. Though its price is volatile but I believe it will rise and we will earn profit. So buy, invest and earn profit.

I don't think you must buy bitcoin today, the price is still high and we all know the price can still dump. It is good if you can buy bitcoin week before August because that where mostly the dump happens. After that week we all know it will be pumping up again because the network splitting will be over.
