Started reading in 2013 or so and just came back - news articles are garbage, and there is a lot of opinion to sift through on here. Can anyone explain the difference between bitcoin forks and their impact on wallets as well as the collective blockchain? For exmaple, if one has a coinbase and/or blockchain wallet can they freely trade between SegWit2x and normal btc? Or will there be a duplicate balance in two separate wallets with the same private key? How does someone access these and will it be different between walletholders?
Any info helps
