So finally B2X is happened today on block 494784 despite the lack of consensus in the last week. Coinbase has already disabled the transactions of btc.
What will be the effect of this fork on BTC?

Did this really happened? Ive seen on exchange chats that segwit2x was happening. And coinbase emailed everybody about this fork. So who actually forked this segwit2x? Im sure it wasnt the original groups. Can you give us more details? I cant seem to find anything online. This b2x coin has been being pumped all day.

I can not understand whom to believe. I heard that segWit2x postponed indefinitely because the community has not reached consensus on this issue. You say that it is trying to run. Who is right? I don't see any changes in the market. It seems to me that such an event can not affect the price of coins. It's probably fake.

Not a threat to Bitcoin, but to Bitcoin holders. There are things like replay attacks that can make you lose your Bitcoin if you spend the Bitcoin SegWit2X. Although the chances are minimal that anyone is going to claim them when no one is mining it. |

I think that it will happen for sure, but very few people will support it. So if new coin will not be supported its price should be low. Is there any statement of exchanges about it?

SegWit2X is definitely real. Here is a statement from Coinbase 12 hours ago. https://blog.coinbase.com/bitcoin-segwit2x-update-b69a1c1e5eceAnd here you can see the user agent NODE_SEGWIT2X: https://bitnodes.earn.com/nodes/?q=1.14.5 |

They say that the miners' support today for SegWit2X is only 7.64% and the SegWit2X chain is already 14 blocks behind and allegedly no block > 1MB was mined yet. SegWit2X was called off and that's the only real news (quite old news already). |

It was postponed due to the lack of consensus last week but today coinbase emailed their users that it will happen today on block 494784, idk yet these are the same guys or different team. |

And, as we can see, Segwit2x has no enough support to survive and become a threat for BTC. I think main mining pools have enough power to beat the segwit2x. |

Yeah the hard fork is true coinbase emailed every person informing that bitcoin transactions are disabled for some hours and the the transactions will takes place when the miners start to support.I think this fork increase the transaction speed and don't know what is gonna happen to the transaction fees because last some days the bitcoin transaction fee is higher than the normal fee.I hope this fork will cause the price bump and it will help the bitcoin price to reach $ 10K at the end of 2017. |

Yeah I think there was just speculations about segwit2x today, most of the miners unaware of because it was scheduled for Nov mid but it was cancelled last week, so I think its an old news the miners are talking about. |

I think too Btc price will reach $10k in Dec. |

I am a regular user of coinbase and I have not received a single email from them after the cancellation of segwit2X. I hope the miners will now support bitcoin after the happening of the segwit2X. This will definitely increase the block size which will speed up the transaction time but I am worried about the highly increased transaction fee after the announcement of the cancellation of segwit2X. I am not sure whether the transaction fee will decrease now after the happening of the segwit2X or it will still be this much high. |

SegWit2x is at 7.64% miner support, 24 blocks behind the main chain, and has yet to mine a >1MB block... I don't think this is going to be a threat to BTC at all.

I thought the Segwit2x got cancelled? But if ever it did happen today then I guess this might be the reason why Bitcoin reached a new all time high today. Reaching $8000+ today and still is around that range now, great for those who had kept their bitcoin and altcoins are probably swimming again in red.

No, Btc was dumped to $5600 after cancellation of segwit2x but its again rised and now it will only go up. |
