Title: Bitcoin Segwit2x 16th November Fork
Post by: Nevare. on November 07, 2017, 02:30:28 PM
As we may all know there is a new fork incoming -> Bitcoin Segwit2x 16th November Fork

My question is, by having my bitcoins stored in Blockchain and having the private key, will I also get access with the private key to the other coin?

also, you suggest putting the money in coinbase or an exchanger that supports the fork, or what you suggest?

thanks!

It is a fork, so the private key is the same for both. If you trust an exchange you can leave your bitcoin there and they should give you access to both coins.
