Quote The Japan Cryptocurrency Business Association has officially announced its plan on how to deal with the possibility of a Bitcoin protocol split on August 1. Thirteen of the group’s bitcoin exchange members, including Coincheck, Gmo-Z, Bitbank, and Bitpoint, will suspend bitcoin deposits and withdrawals on August 1 at 00:00 Japan time. We decided to temporarily stop accepting bitcoin deposits and withdrawals at each exchange…We will stop only the services related to depositing and withdrawing bitcoins, but we will provide our other regular services for virtual currencies and legal currencies. source https://news.bitcoin.com/13-japanese-exchanges-suspend-bitcoin-service-august-1 Title: Re: 1 August, Live in japan, better read this Post by: Sithara007 on July 19, 2017, 01:19:07 AM If they put up some communique regarding what will happen to the coins which are already in the exchange wallets, then it will be really helpful. Most of the exchanges have not revealed what they are gong to do on August 1.

It is not only in Japan but also in the Philippines the local exchange have already declared that they will stop the bitcoin operations such as deposit and withdrawal due to uncertainties on August 1. Hope we get over with August 1 so that we can bring back the lively bitcoin.

Better be cautious and prepared for any situation than have no funds ^^. Title: Re: 1 August, Live in japan, better read this Post by: ecnalubma on July 19, 2017, 09:15:20 AM I think most exchanges all over the globe will do the same thing, In that process I think they can handle and control any situation that might occur during the big day. Its better not to play this time because a lot of investors might be affected by wrong decisions, well I guess for sure that major exchanges dropped btc volume this month.

For them coming out to notify the public is a demonstration that they are committed to what is really going on which might not even be sorted out days after August 1 in case there is a split. Anyone having coins on those exchange, the best is to start moving to a more secure wallet. Title: Re: 1 August, Live in japan, better read this Post by: gentlemand on July 19, 2017, 10:32:13 AM There won't be a chain split. Segwit will be locked in before then and 148 will be irrelevant. Why didn't they say they'd do this if there was ongoing uncertainty? There won't be by then.
Title: Re: 1 August, Live in japan, better read this Post by: Lancusters on July 19, 2017, 10:56:30 AM The correct statement. People take a responsible approach to coins users. They don't want to risk it. So have to do everything. Then quickly agreed and no problems with the division will not. Painless I can wait a month or more until the transactions to be debugged.

Well everything information is needed by people in facing August.yes, i agree, keeping btc in desktop wallet is good suggestion so far. There won't be a chain split. Segwit will be locked in before then and 148 will be irrelevant. Why didn't they say they'd do this if there was ongoing uncertainty? There won't be by then. Should if this is true then everything can be published and no confusion like so far.Title: Re: 1 August, Live in japan, better read this Post by: Idrisu on July 20, 2017, 09:26:37 PM It is a very nice decision and every others exchangers should follow suit as this is the best way to safeguard investors, investment from risk and possibility of losing their bitcoin during this hardfork issues on August 1 2017.
