I'm thinking that btc will flow to alts over the 1st in order to escape the chaos.
Thoughts?
There is two days left so should already flow. People withdrew their BTC. That is why there is so little bu orders. Was even under 600 BTC on Poloniex.
For me, it looks like most people are getting out of alts to be sure of picking up as many free BCC (called BCH on some exchanges) as possible.
Once BCC has forked off after 12.20pm UTC tomorrow and the first block is mined, then some will rush to sell and some of course will hold, but the 'alt bargains' will be where BTC and perhaps some BCC profits start to return.
Expect a rise in all alts, including Monero as exchanges free up and Bitcoin / fiat re-enters the system if things appear to have not been apocalyptic. No one is filling their boots with alts tonight, but a lot of coins are looking very cheap and some will be itching to cash in as soon as the dust looks settled.
I am personally expecting surprises even if (as it looks) the fork seems to have failed. Many actors will have plans afoot to pump / dump or spout FUD; BCC actors will want to prop up its price, or even buy to corner the market in it, before pumping it later. Short term, safe haven alts (like Monero) should benefit benefit from a BTC rise, a BCC rise (if it should happen) and even, conceivably, benefit from a fall in either or both once the new alt-BTC coin is issued and available to trade.
