Title: What will the fork lead to?
Post by: catfishftw on October 21, 2017, 02:15:07 PM
My point of view is by the following fork and getting some "Free" Btc gold the proce of bitcoin will decrease a lot
With a good price for btc gold. Well it will be more accurate if I said it MUST decrease after the fork

The price of Bitcoin could decrease some after the fork if people bought Bitcoins just to get some free Bitcoin Gold. If that is why they bought Bitcoins, then it is possible that they will sell after they claim the Bitcoin Gold.

If enough people sell, then the price will obviously drop some. I don’t expect a big drop after the fork though because I don’t think that was the only reason for the recent price increase.

the thing here is that Bitcoin is like gold, and like gold it has to pass through fire to become what it is today, so Bitcoin is the fire purging the whole crypto space, at the moment i think no other currency in the world can shake the price, remember that alot of people are seeing what Bitcoin could be in the future... at the moment i think Bitcoin could only drop to maximum of 4500$ and head straight to 8000$

On my point after the pork bitcoin again will get very high value.I know that bitcoin has a very good plan for bitcoiners so that this will become successful current to all the world.And very useful now for easy transactions.Bitcoins will be promote to all the world to become powerful so that we can have one currency and one conections to all over the world.

I also expect that to happen. Maybe a dip will happen after the fork to shake off the market before another trend will be formed. Consequently , I don't expect that new trend to keep seeing bitcoin diving downwards. This is because users have realised that bitcoin has a great capacity to come back to bullish over time and so many would still hold in there wallet to expect further growth. This will help bitcoin.

there 2 possibilites that will happen,
1.When the fork finished we should see Biticoin price declining due to another coin created aka Bitcoin Gold,
and when they enable their trade for it,Bitcoin price should be consolidating and then slowly recovering to its peak.
2.When the fork finished we will see a small dip,but Bitcoin will be moving upward again in the next few days,
it's because Bitcoin Gold existence do not threat Bitcoin.Because Bitcoin Gold growth depend on and supporting Bitcoin itself.
(that is what i heard from them).

The decrease after the fork is MUST,
but will it bring us another decline or not,it's only time know about that.
just based on our current price we can see it that something Big will happen soon,

Agree. Bitcoin price will likely decrease after the fork, but not by a lot of amounts, just a tiny portion of the current price. I think we won't even get below $6000 after the fork. The main fuel for the recent rise isn't just Bitcoin Gold fork I'm sure, there is something bigger, the fork is just an icing on top of the cake.

So better to dump BTG as soon as possible and hold that extra Bitcoin tight after the fork! :D

That makes sense actually. Bitcoin are the most rehabilitative currency in the world right now. There are altcoins and there is gold and dollars and much other, but the beauty bitcoin have in this regard, couldn’t be made possible by any other currency.

So, like you said, people come to know now that bitcoin will come back again don’t matter how hard is the dip. It profits.

I suspect that the fork will lead to the same result Bitcoin Cash did, where the new coind will gain some traction at first, but ultimately fail and the money will flow back into Bitcoin.

Right,  bitcoin will be like that.  It won't be beaten that easy by a new coin and we know that bitcoin has surpasses many things and have proven already how strong it is as the most popular and most in demand virtual currency.  Many people are  getting interested in bitcoin now and if ever the fork results to a big dump,  I hope for bitcoin to recover immediately.

Since everyone is piling up Bitcoins in their wallet so as to get free Bitcoin Gold. After the fork, the price of Bitcoin will go down because everyone will be more focused on Bitcoin gold and after all the whole thing is over, Bitcoin will get up again and go over its current price.

Although there are some chances that after hardfork the price of bitcoin will decrease a little, but i think that this decrease will not be a deep one and will not be for a long time. In fact after  hardfork people will try to sell their bitcoin so as to secure their profit and therefore the market can take a little correction. But hopefully the price of bitcoin will very soon start rising again and there will be certainly a new rally and the price will once again start increasing and hopefully will cross 7000$ in a row.

It might astonish us that after the fork, the bitcoin price might remain reasonably stable for some time before rocking higher again. My reason is that people are now getting information about bitcoin and they are likely going to invest into bitcoin.


Title: Re: What will the fork lead to?
Post by: shursight on October 22, 2017, 10:17:24 PM
Yeah nobody knows what is going to happen with bitcoin and all the altcoins once that the fork is done, but we all are hoping  to see bitcoin skyrocket one more time. but i am not sure about this since bitcoin has been bullish for so much time, it really needs to go down for a bit to make it a little bit more stable.
and regarding to altcoins, i dont know, but ethereum will probably go up by at least 10% if people start investing the money that they withdraw from eth.

Steady growth up until ~5 days before the fork. HUGE volatility for a week, a $500 - $1500 drop then steady recovery and then... to the moon!!! *fingers crossed*

Post by: PD1882 on October 22, 2017, 10:48:02 PM
I reckon people buying Bitcoin now for the Gold payout may be inclined to hold the Bitcoin and sell the Gold - the Gold is the freebee after all and a quick win for some to sell who have only a passing interesting and a few $ they can afford to lose. I think dips in Bitcoin price will be short lived - people will buy in earlier than the natural bottom of the curve. That means when the bounce occurs that dip will be even shallower as people who missed out last time don't want to miss out again, and will push the price higher still. I suppose a lot will depend on adoption of the new coin too and if confidence weakens a shift/perceived shift to Ether could have an impact. It'll be fun to watch, maybe once it's all charted I'll actually learn something!

This is what I beleieve with hard fork of btc, it will gonna make a few hurt changes because and due to a little fall down but after an hard fork price will gonna go higher than what we have now. But who knows every things is not vontrolled by anyone so I guess it is hard to predict of what will gonna happen in real with bitcoin after few movements.

I suspect that the fork will lead to the same result Bitcoin Cash did, where the new coind will gain some traction at first, but ultimately fail and the money will flow back into Bitcoin.

This is also my speculation regarding this new fork. Bitcoin gold will be like bitcoin cash. At first people become more interested what bitcoin gold can offer then after doing some experiment the result will be bitcoin is still the best compare to the new coin. This is just my opinion, i could be wrong, so let us wait for the new fork to take effect.

Yes that is right to say that there are so many other altcoins who have good potential and have bright future but still i do not think that a single altcoin can replace bitcoin. Because bitcoin is the basic digital currency and people more trust on bitcoin as compare to any other altcoin. In fact through the increasing number of bitcoin users, bitcoin is now becoming more and more popular which is also making bitcoin more stronger and having bright future.

We should expect a big dip due to Bitcoin Gold. People will be eager to get those new coins, Bitcoin will suffer for a days/weeks, that would be time to buy. After that i expect a massive decline in btc gold which will help btc to recover it's natural growth and reach a new ATH before the end of the year.

I think the price won't decrease a lot some holders are already sold their bitcoins.. that is why the price won't increase more because other investors satisfied what the price today and they don't wanted to be late before its drop that is why bitcoin price is drop but there  are still people are buying more bitcoins because its  getting cheap and they wanted to  get bitcoin gold too just to get the benefits of those coins..
And for safety purposes.
We need to have  bitcoin gold if ever bitcoin gold replace bitcoin just incase but we know  that bitcoin was strong but this is just to save our money if ever changes happen in the future..

When the hard fork  end, the price of the bitcoin decreases (I think so)  it can dump ~ 4k $. The value of bitcoin gold can be ~ $ 300-500. Maybe it will achieve the value that bitcoin cash previously achieved.

Decrease will be, the question in another as far as. Maybe at times and can only 1k. Yes, you can play on it, but still this fork will not play a significant role.

After the forking it is still unknown,
but I ll predict it may fall, BTC price may fall as it will need a correction.

I also predict that many people will run some of the profit to Altcoin,
if one altcoins would have update in January, it may be the priority to buy.
almost all of Altcoins are cheap now,
I ll buy Altcoins later, I am looking for the moment

Not really like all attention would be focused on Bitcoin Gold after the hard fork, unless you're referring to a massive sell off of the BTG windfall and which could stunt it growth. Beyond that a number of bitcoiners would go for profit taking and that might not lead to any major correction, because unlike the situation of things prior to Bitcoin cash split, people're upbeat about Bitcoin and FUD is almost non-existent!

If the hard fork implemented it will lead into dumping the btc price.maybe all the bitcoiner affected and turn their  profit down.all people maybe hold their bitcoin until the condition back to normal or maybe they run into another kind of crypto currency.

Buying of bitcoin at the very present moment is not a very good idea. If you are very much sure of this thing that the prices in the coming days will continue to increase and you will not suffer in any case, only then go for buying of bitcoins. Otherwise, this coming November can decrease the market price of bitcoin due to the upcoming forks. So think well before making any kind of decision.

People are increasing their stash of bitcoin as per the market it seems. However after the fork a dump may happen, but there may not be dump as well - this is because in the next year there will be more forks and people wont sell bitcoins just after the fork. They may hold it for the next upcoming fork. In fact these forks and formation of new altcoins based on bitcoin seems just a hype scheme to increase price of bitcoin and the market seems to be growing but the growth will lead to dump soon.

In my opinion fork will lead to a big dump as many speculation says because they notice that every fork ends in a low price exchange rate. But for now its different because they have good potential altcoins and has a bright future insteads but it does'nt mean to replace the bitcoin because whatever the result come out is just still the bitcoin.

I think people will be more interested in digital currencies. The start of new coins always attracts newcomers, it's like they are given a fresh start. Though we know that only few coins successfully achieved or maintained popularity and adaptation. New coins for old users always have trust issues. Maybe it will depend on its characteristics which will be its advantage from bitcoin. Still experimentation will happen and when it failed then it will die as well.
Back to bitcoin and boom doubled or tripled.

Most likely, nothing. The current forks are attempts at cash grabs, and only that. There is nothing about them that warrants any good reason to switch from Bitcoin, and most people simply sell off their shares and buy Bitcoin instead. It is like free money in a sense, so tat is really cool. lol

You really should not base your opinion too much on people's opinion here as some people may not really understand what they are saying. No one knows what will happen after the fork and except for the upcoming November fork which remains contentious, I do not see how BTC price will reduce because of BTG.

BTG will get dumped, so how does that affect BTC's price negatively. I am just surprised at the rate at which some people are basing their theory here.

Sorry to say, but it seems you have not been following the trend of things. BTG is apparently going to get dumped and I really hope their will even be any exchange to see someone who would want to buy from you and that would make it pretty worthless.

We do not know how things will turn out for sure, but most of the good trading platforms are not even listing it until when they are sure it is a less risky coin for investors. How does this then make BTC to be dumped because of good price for bitcoin gold ?

I do not know why you thought that most of the members of the forum thought the price will go up after the fork, something that as we have seen happened, the only way for the price of bitcoin to get lower is if the community believes in the project and are willing to keep holding it and using this new coin but as we have seen people are only dumping bitcoin gold so the price of bitcoin was never going to go down in those circumstances.

As we can see,  fork by this november is not yet happen,  but the price of bitcoin raise over $7k+  i think, one of the reason is the upcoming fork (btg)  because most of the investors are want to get free coin from the fork which is equivalent from how many bitcoin they have,  and to get earnings/profits from that, by dumping it after the fork,  fork leads bitcoin price hike/raise then suddenly i think after the fork bitcoin price will back to normal price which is $5k+. And the altcoins will drop by 10% after the fork,  the upcoming fork results is unknown and who knows what will next before and after the fork.  but the truth is bitcoin and altcoins are totally affected by this fork and leads to the ups and downs of price in the market.

as you can clearly see now, forks like bitcoin gold have no significant effects on bitcoin price. of course there were a drop which means they are not  completely ineffective but it was not at all big. so your part about "decrease a lot" was wrong.
let this be a lessen and an example for future references. and this is actually the second example. the first one was the bitcoin cash fork where bitcoin price had a little dip after it but started rising even more afterwards.

I dont understand these people that are keep on making forks. And I had to agree with you, most forks now are into making cash easily connecting its users to another chain. There are things to be discussed and this is a long debate for fork supporters but only one chain shall prevail.

I think the current fork holds some potential on the way where we will going. Segwit with LN or Blocksize increase. It's important for traders to know which way bitcoin is going to be scaled. Investors and users will also be interested to see if transactions will be faster/cheaper then what they are worth right now.

It has the potential since there are that much supporters for it and numbers of exchange are starting to prepare for it. Everyone hopes that majority will stay to the old/core bitcoin but of course those knowledgeable people who are living their lives with crypto wants to support this fork as it will improve mostly everything in the chain but yeah let's see on what will be the worth and result of it.

I've been reading a lot of opinions from different people and there seems to be a majority consensus that btc price will drop during the fork
You really should not base your opinion too much on people's opinion here as some people may not really understand what they are saying. No one knows what will happen after the fork and except for the upcoming November fork which remains contentious, I do not see how BTC price will reduce because of BTG.

BTG will get dumped, so how does that affect BTC's price negatively. I am just surprised at the rate at which some people are basing their theory here.
While we must always make our own research it is also very entertaining to read the opinion of others when it comes to these topics since you are going to be able to find well established points of why they believe something is going to happen and then bitcoin just does whatever it wants and makes all our predictions wrong, who would have thought that bitcoin could reach such a high price just one year ago, only dreamers and people that were very positive about bitcoin no one else.

Bcurrently, the sigwith2x activation has been cancelled and we are expecting a pump in price in the days to come. Bitcoin' 's is currently making some corrections and very soon we are going to witness another serious pump in prices. We have a lot of speculators who are speculating that bitcoin is going to get to $10,000 before end of this year and we are hopeful this will happen.
