There is no evidence that many people are using segwit and it will likely not improve bitcoin's fee problems.
more and more services are enabling segwit. Exchanges like bitstamp, wallets like trezor, ledger and many more. bitcoin fees are rapidly decreasind since segwit activation: https://coinjournal.net/bitcoin-fees-decreasing-segwit/so what are you talking about?

I'm a new bitcoin user/investor (after BTC/BCH fork) and this "war" between BTC and BCH makes me sick. There are some valid arguments on both sides. BTC seems a bit like a cult to me, and BCH like a criminal organization. Overall I trust bitcoin because it did a good job in the last years and it's already more mainstream then this new criminal coin nobody knows of.

250k in 10 years? that's nothing. mcafee is betting on 500k in 3 years I found this website to track mcafee's prediction on reddit: http://bit2cat.eu/mcafee/

you are right, you should not keep your coins on an exchange. you can have multiple wallets and split they money between them. here is another link: https://bitcoin.org/en/secure-your-walletit should help you understand the different type of wallets. If you have a lot of money invested you should consider buying a hardware wallet.

to backup your wallet just copy wallet.dat. I prefer stopping bitcoind before doing that. don't forget to encrypt your wallet before storing it somewhere and don't lose your password.
and yes, I think there is no limit for generating new addresses. but if I remember correctly, you should make new backups from your wallet after generating addresses.

I want bitcoin price to have a big dump. when i first do bitcoin, I thought having a high price is a good thing but it affects other people due to imbalance of the price. price correction is needed in this kind of stage. We need to balance bitcoin price for the sake of all people here in bitcoin. some signature campaign closing because they can't afford bitcoin anymore and people around here losing their chance to earn money.
I don't understand your thinking. People can buy bitcoins even if they cost 1 million. They will not be able to buy a whole bitcoin, but you don't need a whole bitcoin to use it. There are 100 million satoshis in one bitcoin.

Good news everybody, we are continuously improving our services. Today we have completed our segwit implementation. This means that our service can now be used even more cheaply.
Thanks for your attention.

most of us regret not buying sooner. no more regret if you buy now. it's not to late.

we are already experience a correction after it touched 5000 USD yesterday. it's a mental barrier we have to break now, people like to sell on such round numbers. it will recover soon and then break through above 5000.

I think you do not understand how bitcoin works. You don't own bitcoins. the bitcoins are stored in a "blockchain" under a certain address and you can make a transaction from this address if you have the correct private key. there are different type of wallets, wallets store your private keys. you can copy this private key and store it on different places. you can even have different type of wallets with the same private key. it is also possible to split your bitcoins on multiple wallets with different private keys. there are many tutorials about wallets and you should educate yourself if you don't want to risk losing bitcoins. some helpful links: https://bitcoin.org/en/secure-your-wallethttps://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cold_storagehttps://www.coindesk.com/information/how-to-store-your-bitcoins/

you could try a transaction accelerator. there are a couple of them, also a free one.

I will start using it as soon my ledger arrives. I think segwit and lightning networks are great features and they will help bitcoin to become a more accepted payment option because of the lower fees.

please more panic, I want to buy low

Having coins in a online wallet or in an exchange is dangerous. It can be hacked or the owner of this service can take all the coins and vanish.
I would recommend to store high values on cold wallets, hardware wallets for example. Use hot wallets/online wallets only for small amounts.
