Hi,

I searched but could not find any clear answers about this ;

1- If someone bought 1 BTC before 1st of august and did not do anything about getting the forks, and then sell its BTC today;

   a- the buyer gets 1BTC only

   b- the buyer gets 1 BTC + 1 BCH + 1 BGold ? 

2-When there is a fork, do we get the 2 but then we can sell only one of them OR can we sell both as separate ? (it seems there is confusion with different interpretations of people)


 Thanks.

Hey, 1, the answer is a, the fork has already happened and the blockchain has created a new record, the first guy can still claim is bitcoin cash.

2.  once the fork happens then you will have two coins which are two completely different entities, you can sell them both individually.

Thanks Dinoloverpete !

How do we get the fork if we have our BTC on a paper wallet ? Like if we want to sell the fork and keep the BTC.
