Buy bitcoin or altcoin before 1st august?

[nightbaron]

First of all we know about the BIP 148 on the 1st august, it may split the bitcoin into two crypto moneys BTC and BCC. Some people are buying bitcoins right now because for each BTC you'll get one BCC for free. The thing is (correct me if I'm wrong) you can not create a value from nothing, that means that the value of BCC+BTC will be the value of BTC before splitting. The other reason ppl buying BTC is that it may rocket to the sky after the 1st august.
The thing is to do that, everybody is selling their altcoins, that's probably the reason why they all are crashing. But it's highly possible that after the 1 august all altcoins went up.
That's where my dilemma starts : in your opininion is it better to buy "good" altcoins while it's very low and ignore for now bitcoin, or would it be smarter to buy bitcoins because it's gonna reach the sky after the 1 august? What are you guys doing right now. Thanks for your suggestions (and sorry for my bad english)

And that my friend is exactly what happened before the 1st of August it was stuck at 2k9 $ just after the fork it passed the 3k $ mark which was one of the milestone. I don't know exactly how that happened ( I don't understand the bitcoin price mechanic ) but something in my head told me to get some bitcoin and I actually made some profit !
