Over the past few days, we have received questions from customers regarding our plans in the case of a fork of the Bitcoin network. Following recent news and community discussion, we see a hard fork as a distinct possibility, and wanted to share some of our plans and views on this matter.  
First, while we can’t always predict how the future will unfold, we would like to assure our customers that we will work diligently to ensure that you get the best experience possible, and that we will act as fast as possible to develop solutions that serve our customers’ needs and protect their interests.
At present, Coins.ph supports a single version of Bitcoin, which is Bitcoin Core (BTC). We do not have a strong opinion for or against any of the proposed updates to the Bitcoin protocol. However, similar to others in the industry, we consider any hard fork which is rolled out without industry-wide consensus, and therefore splits the network, to be an altcoin, not Bitcoin itself. This is irrespective of how much hash power the forked coin may have. Ours is only one voice of many, but this is entirely consistent with the view currently taken by the economic majority of Bitcoin exchanges. If such fork was executed in a supportable way, and there was sufficient customer and market demand for the new coin, we may elect to  add support for such altcoin as soon as technically possible.
What this means for our customers

We’d like to remind our customers that the value of bitcoin is subject to volatility, and that any fork in Bitcoin is likely to have an immediate effect on market price. The only way to fully avoid such volatility is to not hold any bitcoin.  
Upon any fork, Coins.ph may temporarily suspend transactions on the system while we make the necessary updates to our system. Notably, during that time, you may not be able to buy, sell, or transfer bitcoin out of the system. While we would aim to complete such an update in the shortest time possible, we will only resume transactions once we are confident that such an update has been adequately reviewed and tested. Announcements and updates will be made on the Coins.ph website and/or official social media channels.
Finally, we encourage customers to refer to the Coins.ph User Agreement, which outlines our obligations in the event of a fork of Bitcoin.

Sa pagkakaalam ko po ang Coins.ph nakalink o naka-tie up sila sa Coinbase kaya parehas sila ng sinusuportahan. Coinbase supports SegWit adoption, base narin sa pahayag ni Brian Armstrong na CEO nito.

Sana kung na-approve ang proposal ng Bitcoin Core ay tuluyan din magresulta ito, at least o kahit papaano, sa pagbaba ng transaction fees. Sana.

Parang may parehas na din ata ng thread ng pinost mo pero di ko na mahagilap. Sana maging maganda ang kalalabasan ng fork na yan. Matanong ko lang sino dito naglilipat na ng mga funds nila sa ibang wallet? safe ba kapag stay lang yung funds sa coins.ph account?

katulad nga ng sinabi ng coins.ph sa blog nila na nabasa ko, kapag nagkaroon ng fork ay temporary na parang disable ang wallet natin, hindi pwede mag send or recieve ng coins so tingin ko masasabing hindi safe kasi masstock lang sa kanila yung pera natin, kaya mas maganda tlaga ilipat na sa wallet na hawak mismo natin ang private key

Ilipat mo nalang muna sir sa desktop wallet na may private key o kaya sa hardware wallet kung mayroon ka po. Pwede rin na gamitin mo nalang po pangbili ng ibang coins kasi nabanggit narin po sa article ng Coins.ph na temporary nilang isu-suspend ang kanilang system kaya mahihinto ang pagproseso ng transaction. Kaya mainam po na nailipat muna ito o kaya naibili muna bago pa po mangyari iyon. Pwede rin po i-cash muna bago mag-August 1 para hindi ka na po mamomroblema.
