Hello, I wanted to ask a question on FORKS


1) I don't understand If BTC had a Fork - Why is BTC Supply 21m and BCC Hlmost half?




2) If I own 10 X coin and it gets a fork

So does that mean I get a FREE COIN PER the 10,

So I now have 20 COINS - 10  of each?

How do I get a FORK?


Thanks

1. BCC isn't related anything to BTC . Bitconnect is a invidual project and it's MLM lending one. So the amount of BCC is depending on the owner of that project not depending on Segwit2x.
2. Fork is a an update for fixing errors and updating new stuffs so you can't get a fork unless the dev team decide to do it.

If a fork happens your money will be safe if you dont make any transaction. Nothing you made is an example of fork but fork is done if you have a coin and especially bitcoin they well be duplicated if you have any extra

Fork is a process and if you want fork try to go have a bitcoin any other coin.

You don't want to wIsh to get a fork because like now error and a posibility to get lost if you made a transaction and base on your post you think pork is spiltstill your token no its not thats not how it goes. If there is a token name strak and fork comes the token will duplicate and be named as strak IronMan and  they don't have the same currency.

Bitcoin has had two notable forks: bitcoin cash BCH, and bitcoin gold BTG

IF you own 1 bitcoin you usually get at least 1 forked token,
so in the case of BCH you would get 1.
You would own 1 bitcoin and 1 bitcoin cash.

You are awarded a fork token but you have to claim it because not all wallets will accept new fork tokens straight away.
