Before the upcoming B2X fork, should I move my coins to Coinbase wallet? Or I can easily get my B2CX if I keep them in Trezor?

Has Coinbase announced they'll support the segwit2x fork?

I haven't heard any news from Trezor, but I trust Trezor more than Coinbase. Has Trezor said they won't support it?

I will probably keep bitcoins in hardware wallet. Although I have a bit issue with trezor in the bch split. They are very slow in releasing a coin split tool then. You may choose to leave a portion of the coin in the exchange in case that deposit are delayed and you need to trade straight away.  I will be very careful with the exchange's policy, e.g. coinbase is pro 2X and may name B2X as BTC after fork. Find one that align with your preference.

Yes coinbase officially supports it :https://support.coinbase.com/customer/portal/articles/2892985-segwit-2x-faq
However, Trezor doesnt really support it, yet. What do you think?

Well I can say you need to move it to an exchange that announces it's going to support it BUT
Is it actually worth it any more ?

If you took a look at Bitcoin Gold's price right now, it's about $125. Which means that if you had $1000 in bitcoins you'd get only $17 in Bitcoin Gold !  That's all before even the main network is gone live. The price will totally crash more once it goes live as everyone will start dumping their coins.

Note that Bitcoin Gold had some excitement about at as it's in Equihash and is mineable using Gpu cards so you can say it has some sort of community that supports it.

But what about B2X that's supposed to be coming in about 10 days, has absolutely no sort of attention/community and fails to declare itself properly to the public.

It's seriously not worth the hassle or even thinking or bothering yourself about it.

As long as you have your private keys then you will be fine I don't own a trezor but im sure they have the capability of backing up your private key.
