Maybe the government is scared with the price of bitcoin compared with their home currency, or they are thinking it will be used for some fraud acts in the country.

Well,  the price of bitcoin might drop a little, just for some few days, cause the price will always rise up again. Watching closely, if the price should still keep on going up till the day of the fork, then it will just keep going.

If all the money is in the bank and receive a little profit or maybe nothing at all, you can take a risk by investing it into bitcoin, but you should know well about the risks that is involved with bitcoin. When you take this risk, just watch your investment grow.

Due to lots lots of ponzi and scam sites that existed in my country last year, majority of the citizens of my country where scammed and that makes everyone to dislike anything that comes from the internet. And bitcoin was one of them, which makes some people shut me up when I try to bring up any thing that concerns bitcoin.

So, what I will say is, let them figure it out using the internet.

Maybe the value will drop a day or two before the fork and maybe a week after the fork, the price will increase even higher than its price. Just like after the bcc fork, the price of bitcoin went high.
So, after the fork the price of bitcoin will be going to $6k+

Bitcoin is going very high, let's see what the fork has for bitcoin, after that, let's be ready to party.

The Christmas will be very smooth with lots of goodies for all bitcoin holders.

Well, let's see how things goes, maybe when the time for the fork approaches, the price of bitcoin will drop and some days after the fork, then the price will go up steadily.
For now let's watch the market chart.

Well, looking at this time, now there is an upcoming fork, the price of bitcoin will be fluctuating up and down, so, it will be better to stay close to the market chart to know when you can make an investment.

This is a very good point. Cause ones child cannot take his father's name as his own. Well for me I am still a student, I only teach my baby brother how things about bitcoin and crypto currencies are done.

It will be better you read more about trading and try to understand the market chart of coins and mostly the coin which you wish to purchase. The trading section in the forum will be of help and also the beginners guide.

I might be an example too of this synero, despite I am a student I am also a worker (one has to do something to go on with life) before I get incontact with bitcoin. I spend time with bitcointalk, but when I have a field job I do go(self employed) for it.

Yes,  if the human race is not over, the use of bitcoin will continue and if the internet is still up and running, then the use of bitcoin will continue. And by that time, the use of bitcoin might have gone legalized and generally accepted by all countries.

According to your topic, now should be the best time to sit down  beside the market price chart of bitcoin. Bitcoin price has been dropping for hours ago, it will be better you get ready to buy some now and hold.

This was same issues faced before the first fork of bitcoin cash, and after the fork the price went high, and now a new fork of bitcoin gold is just to shut up the price again. This is a time to buy by new investors who where seeing it too late to invest.

I know coinbase as a very good one for buying BTC or ETH using USD, except the high fees, they are okay to use for a direct transactions of fiat to crypto currency. I don't really know if there is another like it.

Buying bitcoin now is more better than when the price will get to $6-$7 and above, as the years are going the price is increasing high and so are more investors coming into the line of crypto currency, so, with little by little investments you will not regret it now or later.

How I see this is that, countries that are not accepting bitcoin in their country legal is because of their own currency, if they accept bitcoin, it might reduce their currency value. It is also a way of fraud acts taking place in the country.

It's difficult if possible to reverse the transaction which you have made, that is why the sites always tell for  a proper check of the address you are sending your coins to if it's the right one. Sorry for your loss Sir.

It will be same as the last fork of bitcoin cash, those whose wallet will support bitcoin gold during or after the fork will receive the coin, but if your wallet doesn't support it, you won't receive the coin.

I have not actually come across such situation, try an Check if you received a mail from your block.io account, hope your mnemonic details are intact, cause that will be your only way if your system administrator should ask for it.
