Fork time / bloody october?

[limefatcat]

Has USDT been deemed safe. I read a lot of FUD articles a couple weeks back then made me hesitant. If it is indeed safe the best play IMO is to put in tether and buy the dips but may not be worth the risk of trying to time everything

I'm not completely sure if understand the consequences this fork correctly. Do you think lots of people want to exchange altcoins for bitcoins to profit from the fork and therefore altcoins might drop in price just before the fork? Or will the fork of bitcoin directly influence prices of all cryptos?

[HomoHenning]

I believe that there wont be any major price drop or bearish trend but opposite. Because expected trends do not occur in crypto world. If everybody thinks that there will be a big dump, i think it will not happen!

look at what happened in july. this will be the same game again in october. things repeating...and most people are just dump and too emotional.
I think we will heading to 3000 mid of october

People are weak holding their bitcoins and weak minds that turn into panic selling.. and others too are affect until they sell also their bitcoin..
They really don't understand bitcoin is unpredictable and volatile but bitcoin can be over pass the price above $5k until $6k before end of this year.. 

If you can check the previous movement of bitcoin from the past year and until now the price was really different and the price right now are really increased so if you can hold for a long time just hold it until next year because of you have a weak hand holding your bitcoin instead of you can make profit you can be lose profit..  so just hold your bitcoin tightly and wait for months or year if you made a 20% profit its good or if the price was increase x2 you can sell it and get 100% profit..

I guess it was on november for bitcoin. But for Ethereum and Waves its in October and i prefer not to call bloody its greedy october for me.
Good improvements will gain more. so hodl and buy more time.

The risk to lose your shirt and money is always there in market. I some times start thinking to quit with every thing and only use Simple plan hard cash.

[Mahanton]

Is this the beginning? How do you prepare your investments...? 

For my previous coins i would still hodl up no matter how bloody would be the market and for now my plans is to save up more funds to buy cheaper coins on those times for sure it would repeat the situation just like what happened on august 1 fork.Its always been better to buy always on dips because there would be an another easy money scheme to happen

[currypto]

I'm remembering all the shit that has happened this year.

I think it is plain as day, you should NOT hold your altcoins. All altcoins see massive drop when a fork comes. Because people want to bank on the "double" Bitcoin they get. I'm talking big players.

And we know the big players move the market.

I will be dropping all my altcoin and re-buy after, probably doubling my holdings.

[styca]

Hold and don't look at it on daily basis will be my 2 cents of advice. Panic happens if you keep a watch on every minute movements.

That's my advice too. Unfortunately I find it hard to stick to it, but I'm trying my best You're definitely right about the panic.

[chaosfourever]

This is just another bump in the road. Keep holding and stay the path. I am not even concerning myself over this new fork.

[ngm-]

Is the day already settled ? We know exactly when it will happen ?

[LuckyCheetah]

Isn't fork a good thing?

As far as I understand a bad thing is if the fork will fail, but it won't affect the Bitcoin price much, will it?

Stay Calm & Don't Panic!
Just keep in mind that nothing severe happened last August (1st of Aug) & everything went good for bitcoin.
I was concerned some time ago that this could 'negatively' affect any upcoming ICOs that will take place at the same period but after the good responses I got over here; I'm sure it will pass smoothly

[Dullmartini]

I set some money aside and wait for the dip. Have my limit buys in place. Diversify between a few coins. I think it's a great opportunity potentially to buy cheap and, like another poster said, to make some cash scalping your holdings now. I think most people are bullish on crypto in the long run so there's no need to panic. After this bump, it will all go back up (in all likelihood)

[Emperor of Man]

If you're confused, and you're not sure of what to do just keep your investments and don't trade, until market gets more stable.

Touchy-feely market ain't a good time to do 1000 trades. I learned it the hard way by a cruel teacher called experience.  

Don't make him/her become your teacher too.

[dasdo]

It seems to me the best solution, keep your investments in wallets and keep them in long. So you get your new bitcoins on these wallets that will support the fork. And to increase the deposit and the number of bitcoins, I advise you to participate in bounty companies. It is very profitable.

[Remainder]

I just stay hold my earning cryptos just what I did last August bitcoin split, I think this fork will make bitcoin pump again like a sky rocket just like what happen before!  

[okbit]

If you hold your BTC on Coinbase, you could have a problem. They have not said if they will support both coins in a split. Just like what happened with Bitcoin Cash.

Just hold and be calm and don't panic. We all heard this phrase time and time again. But the problem is that members specially newbies are really affected by a big price swing and to covered their lose they sold their coins. We still don't know what gonna happen in Nov. but one thing's for sure, if the price crash, then its gonna be a good buying point for all of us. A dip is not a bad thing, for others its the perfect opportunity buy bitcoin back and saved. So as early as today, newbies should learn this. Just stay cool and wait till the dust settles and just listen to a more Senior member here. Because if you panic, you are going to regret your decision off loading your coins during the crash.

There is no reason to panic. First this is not even a problematic fork, you should almost see it as an "airdrop". You just hold you bitcoins and you will get bitcoin gold out of it. Wait for a while to see the best way to claim your new free coins, and then you can decide what to do with it. Hold it, or just sell it and buy more bitcoins.

I think holders are enjoying these forks now. Not so sure about the fork in November, simply because of the absence of replay attack protection, but we still have time to "prepare" for that one.
