Some of you who have been reading r/bitcoin, may know that there is a hard fork attempt coming up.
This fork is an attack on bitcoin and everything we here on the dark net stand for. For more details read my post history. Particularly sinister is the fact that there's only 1 dev for B2X, Jeff Garzik who works with LE everyday trying to take us down.
When this fork happens there may be some disruption on the bitcoin chain. Blocks might take longer to confirm but more importantly there is no "replay protection" which means if you send bitcoin or B2X after the fork your transaction may be valid on both chains, which means you may lose your corresponding B2X or bitcoin.
Ok What should I do?
For those of you who don't care and just want yer drugs, don't transact until the dust settles and there is a clear winner. Do a little planning, order your packs before this fork. Check r/bitcoin for updates. The real battle will be fought on the exchanges as everyone watches to see which coin takes the higher price.
It's likely that only 1 chain survives in the end, it will almost certainly be bitcoin. So most likely nothing too bad will happen but check r/bitcoin to be sure.
How should I Trade this fork?
I've gotten this question several times so here's the answer. This fork will be the most profitable event ever, it's super EZ money. Just dump 1/2 of your B2X at the beginning when the price is high then the price is going to crash. Then wait a day or two cuz it's going to pump again and thats when you sell the rest of your B2X.
You can probably use twitter.com/chainsplit to split your coins but the easiest way is to just send them to an exchange before the fork, that supports B2X trading or futures if you don't think they'll exit scam.
Mods: may want to sticky this. I'm off to sleep and will check back here in the morning
Please stop misinforming people. None of this is a sure thing. The price could slowly go up, or it could be zero the moment it gets listed. This isn't the BCH fork; the S2X token may necessarily not have sufficient demand. If you really think you can magically tell the future, trade it yourself and become a millionaire. Stop lying to people.
Edit: Well, since this comment is at the top, let me use this opportunity to tell you guys the single most important thing in terms of not losing money during the fork. Pull your money off exchanges and websites and store your coins on your own wallet. If you do not own the private key of your bitcoin, you may not receive tokens on the second change. Pulling your coins off your bitcoin exchange or market sites ensures that you receive both variants and can then do what you please with them.
