I wonder what is going to happen to the Bitcoin's price when the Chinese people wake up?
We need to wait a few more hours if I'm not mistaken?



They will dump BTC as there is no free B2X money.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Dont know why so much bully comments for btc?

When i understand right, btc will drop, as a lot of guys hoped for getting a new coin for free for making huge profits, now a lot of money should get into alts like the past few hours? this trend will stay, when chinese wake up, they will flood alts too i think so? and mistake on my thoughts? I think there is some money which will be switched into fiat, a lot of money for alts and big (short time) losses, before the so called "big fishes" will buy btc the next few month

You are completely right, those people who says "to the moon" "10k by today", or somebody dont get B2X because they are chinese, doing this, just because they try to effect a price and fishes to think so. Most of them are still on BTC and dont want to lose their money..

Yeah it's weird, people don't like it when you talk down their favourite coin, but they could just buy alts too, nothing's stopping them.

Obviously BTC will drop some and big alts will surge, a child could see it coming.

Wow, this news is somehow expected but I did not expect it to happen already.
However I am really glad that there was no split. Less confusion for newbies and no more fight in the community.
If you look at the marketcap it is rising over all, so there is not really money going from BTC to alts, there is new money coming in.
It is a really exiting moment, I hope there will be peace now for a while around BTC.

Hopefully it should now stabilize and consolidate for a bit. That'll help in gaining momentum for the next bull run!

When the asian markets wake up and hear the news we will know the truth. I'm hoping for a run up but fate pointing down, down, down

Not really confusion, just retards who bought the pre-launch (lol who does that?) and are now lying their ass off so they can dump it to even bigger 'tards.

Sounds right, alts were suffering because everybody were selling them to buy BTC for free forked coins. Now the status quo has changed, so there's no need to buy BTC in a hurry anymore. We will see on the alts if people were buyin BTC mainly for the airdrop (short term investment) or because of the technology (long term investment). I have no idea, so I'll sit back and wait for the dust to settle...

Could it be this 'suspension' is somehow connected to launching of Bitcoin futures by CME Group?

These are some reasonable words and glad that they decided to keep the community together (although Segwit2x most likely would not have got too much support).

The market reaction is positive, Bitcoin jumped to an all time high before the money is transferred back to all the altcoins, which suffered in all these weeks, 5-50% increase in a few hours, time to invest.

Stephen Pair trying to save face here: https://medium.com/@spair/segwit2x-should-be-canceled-b7399c767d34. I've updated the OP to mention this and will list the supporters of this attempted and failed takeover of Bitcoin. #NeverForget.

Long live anarchy.
Side note 1: Whoever thinks that alts have any value pre or post this withdrawal is delusional. You're playing right in their hands while they leech profits from you. Smiley

Yeah it's weird, people don't like it when you talk down their favourite coin, but they could just buy alts too, nothing's stopping them.

Obviously BTC will drop some and big alts will surge, a child could see it coming.

Just wondering how much money will be switched into fiat and how much the gains from good old alts like eth, dash, and so on will be.. any case thinking about trading bulling alts / bearing btc

Well Dash, Litecoin and Monero were less than half their recent prices, for two reasons:

1) They were dipping anyway.

2) Money left alts to get 2 possible Bitcoin fork coins.

I would expect Dash to be around 0.08-0.09 within 3-6 weeks, Monero 0.03, LTC to be 0.016-0.018. Eth is tricky because of problems and infinite supply.

This is all guesswork but an educated guess. No-one knows the future but I do trade for living, so make of this what you will.

I wouldn't trade BTC for fiat, I'd trade it for alts, BTC will take a correction but it will come back strong. Just increase your BTC amount by buying alts then trading back to btc later.

- XT
- Classic
- Unlimited
- S2X

Who next?

Honestly, it's a bit disappointing that none of these actually got to the point of a miner-backed attack, since they would've lost, and that would've once-and-for-all put an end to the "miners control Bitcoin" narrative. Oh well.

A lot of companies showed their true colors here. Some stuck their necks out in the right direction and deserve recognition. And some were clearly working against Bitcoin, to varying degrees. We should make a comprehensive list at some point.

To everyone who helped fight against S2X in any way: thank you for defending Bitcoin! While I have little doubt that these companies will try something again, I think that the community is progressively getting "immunized" to these attacks, and the attackers need more and more resources to put up the same fight. Hopefully this one will be the last really dangerous one for a while. We must always remain vigilant, however.
