think other cryptos will develop a lot better, price wise and were thus considering further diversification.
any investment will have risks and rewards. if you think the rewards of an investment in other altcoins is high enough that it covers the risks of investing in them, then don't hesitate and do it. but the important part of it is to understand the risks first, not just going in blindly because you "think" bitcoin won't get an scaling and you "think" altcoins will go up if bitcoin drops.
What do you guys think? Will Bitcoin finally get a scaling solution? Is the 2mb+segwit really deployable in august or is that just a smoke screen? Or another date in the near future?
i personally think there will be a lot of drama in August but nothing will happen. but i hope some middle ground is reached and we can finally move on, and it seems like a most possible outcome to me too. specially because of the SegWit 2mb thing.
I'd like to see bitcoin getting a scaling solution. Even trading is hard when i move a chunk from one exchange to another and it takes 10-12 hours.
if you have ever made a withdrawal from an exchange you would have known that all of them have increased their fees and their transactions
rarely take any long time to confirm because they are all paying higher fees than 350 satoshi per byte. some even pay 400-500 s/b!
