It seems like a complete scam. They probably cashed on the false expectations they raised. The Bitfinex Segwit2X token tripled in value after their announcement.

It seems like a lot of these forks are just going to open up spin off coins that will be practically worthless in the future. As with the past, the forks are basically opening up paths into these scam coins that people hype up to get values up before the fork so that they can quickly exchange the inflated value for some BTC. Don't pay attention to these forks too heavily, I doubt any worthy coin will come out from it.

I think this coin is currently only listed in yobit and majority of those people who had received this coin has sold it. Thus it means even they believe that it does not have future so they did not hold it and sold their coins. The high on that exchange was around 0.07 and at present it is trading at 0.019.

The coin listed on Yobit is just a future for speculation purposes, just like the Bitfinex Segwit2x token. The actual "coin" is not available yet and probably never will be because is seems that there are no developers involved.

Even if it is not really a scam, it does look like one.
Anyway as for me i will begin to give less attention to all this fork news.
I believe there is a cabal cashing in on these fork ish.

I never look segwit2x  a complete scam,because i thinks if that segwit2x implemented now,we cannot experience this terrible things happen now in trading process that contains mostly 3-5 days transaction of pending,because of postponing the segwit2x we permanently experience a heavy traffic in block chain a real  hard pork that we always face everyday.

My sense is that there is NOTHING in all these forks beyond the greed of some dev who just wants the money. They are all basically shitcoins.

I do not really expect this segment, because I always keep my BTC balance on a very complicated exchanger, Bittrex,
to withdraw is very difficult, and if it is true fork I am not so happy this time

First of all,the team for this segwit2x is entirely different from the old official segwit2x team.It is said that 2,000,000 coins are premined which has not been stated in their website.The orchestrators are being accused of opening faked LinkedIn accounts.It totally seems to be a scam.

Yes it was different from the first attempt and I guess this coin is mostly not going to be on trend. Yobit and some other exchanges are starting to trade with it already, people are just getting their free profit on it whether other says its scam or not. I don't value these type of forks anymore.

Not really, I don’t know if it’s a scam.or not, but one thing I’m sure is that I have no single interest in it. So even if it wasn’t scam and got released, I wouldn’t be investing a dime on it, I’m always into the real Bitcoin and not fakes that are scattered all over the blocks. But I thought it was scam, cause I thought the reason for withdrawing was because they had a problem like lesser support or something like that…

Scam 100%

Yobit now pays from 1 to 2% per day in the investbox for a deposit of b2x. So, I think this is an extremely speculative tool. And it is necessary to enter it with caution.
