There is a lot of rumor about the August 1 Y2K-drama that is coming.

I was wondering if you guys think if ALL the (alt)coins will be affected, or that some might just benefit from the Bitcoin-drama?

Monero will be a good stable choice with upward potential during this period.Just like LTC

Waves is good, especially with all the ICOs popping up

Because all the newbies entering, the market is not working as it should. You can see all prices were in red the last few days, everything is affected of the panic for 1st August, so predicting is more difficult.

Monero will be a good stable choice with upward potential during this period.Just like LTC

Don't think LTC will be good choice if BTC implement SegWit, then Litecoin won't have any advantages over Bitcoin.

All alt coins will be affected. No exceptions.

In my opinion all altcoins will suffer some loss. Maybe as situation passes by we might see that some popular alts with high volume (such as XMR , LTC , ETH and others) to try to go up, but this all depend if traders want to try to earn more. Nobody knows how will the market play out, for long term it should be okay but which will benefit hard to guess really - as we saw last few times when btc went down it pulled alts with it as well, so I believe that most of them will dump at this time, i might be wrong of course.

None of them. Monero only
