Namecoin is a different codebase than Bitcoin.  Not a twin.

It depends on your risk tolerance and how btc you have. 

You can hold your btc and you will get an equal amount on the BU chain.  I think most will do that.

There is a risk with this.  This hardfork isn't that well planned and numerous bugs have been found in the BU code already.  Plus there will probably be an attack on Bitcoin (core) by BU miners which could stall that chain and force another split to a new PoW algo.

If you add these two possibilities then there is a good probability of a massive panic and price crash.  It will be difficult for most to think clearly in such a scenario and if panic selling ensues it could get really ugly really fast.

So again, it depends on your situation and how much risk can you stomach. 

If I had say 1,000 btc I'd probably cash out 200 now to have a lot of cash to buy with.  And then wait on the 800 btc and double it to 1600 post split and hope there's no crash and it's easy to pic a winner.

If I had only a few btc I'd probably just wait and see cause my wife [hopefully] wouldn't leave me over such a small loss, in the event I were to make the wrong call after the split.

Personally, I think the worst case scenario is gonna happen, there are going to be bugs, Bitcoin (core version) will get attacked and they'll be forced to fork again to a new PoW algo thus splicing Bitcoin 3 times.  This would create mass confusion and the price would probably plummet at which point it would be hard to figure out what's what.

I think all hell is about to break loose.  I expected it to happen last summer which was why I kept saying:  it's gonna be a HOT summer.

Good luck!

Hahaha.  No, you're not a puppet, you get an apple.

Interesting read.  This part stood out to me for some reason.

And BTW, most people are not losing "money".  They're losing paper profits which is not quite the same socially and economically speaking.  That "money" will be transferred to others just like it was once transferred to those losing it. 

Just like stocks, it's a zero sum game. 

And the writing has been on the wall a long time - people chose to assume the risk so they have to take the loss with the same grace they boasted about their easy "moon" profits.

Most will lose all their BTC.  It's getting too complex and unstable already.  It's just a simple reality people need to face and diversify according to their risk tolerance.

Well, I had a lot of skin in the game until Vern took it all.  It's part cause I'm just a meanie but mostly it's this. 





4 years I've been accurately predicting things like this split and coming chaos just to be called crazy. 

I don't like that.  Nobody paid me a dime to be treated like shit, I was only trying to help people.  People who prefer to stay blind and mock those who see.

So now I'm enjoying the show; and mocking the mockers. 

so you have no skin in the game but a never ending amount of glee watching people lose money so you gain what exactly?

why are you here exactly?

Bitcoin Unlimited just hit 40% of the last 144 blocks. 

PS - Bahahahahaaaa!

Sorry about that last part; I simply couldn't hold it in.

Ever seen a chicken running around with his head cut off?  How about a few hundred thousand?   lol

Uhhhh, April fools?  That's either a joke or someone out there loves a good laugh.  I hope it's true cause I can't wait.

Wow vorhees reads your thread and commented about your topic, in another thread on another site...

Sounds like they have drawn a line in the sand.   Gleb!  What have you got?

Hahaha.  I promise.  Not sure you can trust the promise of a dictator, tho. 

Well, that explains why Peter Thiel donned a Hulk Hogan custom at a Robert Mercer function honoring Trump as they both at some time during the event quasi-privately talked about the day Bitcoin was conceived at another Mercer function eight summers prior with Thiel's cohort, a Cypherpunk (not Tom Jennings, but present), rounding out those in attendance, in which the framework of the now infamous white paper was thoroughly discussed, purposely dated on Halloween [day] (rhymes with Wei) 2008, because dressing up as something who/that's not is not only cute at least once a year for some, but more frequently cuz it's all the rage for others in certain circles who give a hoot, which may or may not have an owl in the hunt for red October.
