It depends on you if you buy before or after. But it is better to buy now. If you want to invest or have a business on something you must take the risk. And also im sure that the price of bitcoin will grow more bigger after august no matter what.

if it's after August 1 then we should not buy bitcoin because it will be expensive so buy if its affordable now, if August 1 is true we should have save now so we can join those who will get successful in pump.

Honestly, with the volatility at this point I'd just try to stick out of Bitcoin and Cryptos all together. Prices are going to insane heigts, traders are beyond happy with the volatility and are playing the markets to be able to pull every single penny out of the people who are just getting into Bitcoin to make some quick cash and I just wouldn't trust this market to not bust AT SOME CLOSE POINT. I'd stick out of it and see how this all plays out, maybe you'll be able to buy Bitcoin for cheap or maybe you'll miss out on a time of Bitcoin before a huge breakout.

Will go high or not after August 1, then just buy.

Your aniticipation really needs in your decision. Look, people are suggesting but I doubt you will follow some of them. That's why if what's on your heart then follow it. Just be sure that during August 1, you are closely monitoring the price so that if you feel that anything will be gone wrong, you are there to push that sell button to reduce the possible loss but if you really believe in bitcoin, then no matter how it will pull, you will still hold it and do another buys at the established dip.

I guess if one is in for the long run, it does not seem really matter that much as the price is expected to be 10 folds plus in 5 to 10 years.  However, the lower the price one invests with a fixed amount of money, can increase more gain as more BTC can be bought at the time of investment.

In this rather uncertain period that will soon follow a kind of chaos can appear and the price will be fluctuating but generaly the price will go up after period so if you hsvz some funds invest it now. Watch closely the market, there will be some funds and pumps meanwhile so use the opportunity when it will appear.

I think I will buy and hold and not watch all the daily drama happening. It is too much for a normal heart to take.   Cheesy

Thank you for the info.  The title of the thread is almost identical! 

My exchange said that they support Bitcoin Core if the split does happen.

Nevertheless, keeping your own coin outside of that exchange will mean you can have coins on both chains. After the split, put back the coins in your exchange. At least if anything happens thereafter, you've still got the same amount of coins on either. Just a matter of safeguarding, is all.

Hi Bitcoin Guy, someone started a thread asking the same question yesterday, you'll find it here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19736252

As for words on official implementation, you'll find the most current answer...every day...by searching "Bitcoin SegWit" on this Forum or on Google. What I mean is there's only been signaling of intent, no word of official "it's going to happen."...yet.

Personally, the concern about buy now or later isn't related to the price. It's related to whether the fallout from SegWit ultimately creates a hard fork that results in two versions of Bitcoin coin, one of which miners will adopt and will continue to have value and the other miners won't adopt and it will fall into obscurity. You don't want to be on the wrong side of that result.

If you have your bitcoin in an online wallet you can't guarantee that you won't be on the wrong side of it.

Thank you for the info.  The title of the thread is almost identical!

I will advice you to invest now if you really have some cash that you won't regret if invested :no one knows the what the future hold for bitcoi  after segwit is activated in August 1st,there can be split if things did not go well and if there is split there is no one to predict what the price will be,so it is depends on you but I will continue to buy and store even until August 1st

If you have Bitcoin before the split, you'll have Bitcoin on both chains and you'll eventually make more profit.
However, Bitcoin will get Segwit2x earlier than the UASF on August 1st.

So many experienced traders and investors that have been into bitcoin for 3-5 years are hedging towards FIAT. I would not recommend anyone to get into bitgcoin at this stage. This said, if you are looking to invest for a long term, I think it should play out well for you.

just invest as much as you can afford to lose, bitcoin still has a lot of potential irregardless of all the drama that you can see in the community. and that means a higher price in the future.
Absolutely right. No doubt Bitcoin has good potential, but you might know that every investment is risky. So, to say that following the simple investment rule: Never make an Investment if you couldn't afford a total loss. To now wait for the right time.

If you are not looking for short term trading, than I think you should just invest bitcoin whenever you have some fiat. But if you are worried about few $ drop than you can wait till there will be hard fork and if you get lucky you might get few cheap bitcoins sold by weak hands.

Change brings chaos and chaos is an presents an opportunity to profit. I think if ever there would be any soft fork happening on august 1 then it would result to that chaos. Prices will likely go down but there is chance it could do the opposite and sore higher than before. Both are opportunities which you should evaluate yourself where you should put your money in.

I expect that until the first of August panic will do its job and the price will drop coins as possible. This will allow me to buy more coins and after the second of August very good money when the price starts to go up. But that's just my opinion, I'm no expert.
You are not expert but what you said it's maybe right because most of the people are saying the same thing. And I also have hope on your words it may happen. If it happens then actually, it is good money for those who hold bitcoins in their wallet. I think before August 1st the price still goes down and yes this is the good time to buy some coins.
sell the news and things will happen according to your intentions as we knew that weak holders will be shaken and whales will make their dip moves to accumulate more btc as mention by some other experts its better to be wiser than being sorry if you are not sure better to wait after aug 1 and play the game if price drop then buy more if price moves up then do some fomo and hold do your research while you still have a month of time to decide.

In my opinion I think its better to be in a wait-and-see situation. Just read an update always on the issues involved so that it can narrow your option in investing in bitcoin. As of now, there are no official statements? or I maybe wrong and it is important that you are well informed.

Lots of people are supporting Segwit so the price will go up towards the end of July for sure. The voting ended at 80%-20%, so I think core developers and miners are in favor of the segwit and the outcomes. The price may drop after Aug 1st because of some confusion but it will not affect highly.
