I'll try to explain it again because it seems like some people here are retarded.

1) The value of Bitcoin is: The total amount of money invested in Bitcoins divided by the number of coins that are in circulation.

2) The value of Bitcoin at the exact moment of the fork will be: 1/2 of the total money invested in Bitcoins

3) The value of Bitcoin Cash at the exact moment of the fork shall be: 1/2 of the total amount invested in Bitcoins.

I need to make it even clear to the retarded that this is what happens at the exact FORK MOMENT. Then it is the market that will decide how much each will be worth. But the devaluation of bitcoin is PROPORTIONAL TO WHAT BITCOIN CASH IS VALUIZED.

What some imbeciles seem to be thinking: That the money that is inside the exchanges invested in Bitcoins at the exact moment of the fork will double and every bitcoin and bitcon cash will be worth the same at the same value that the bitcoin is now worth at the moment.

Lel, no. You just contradicted yourself and spreading some SERIOUS MISINFORMATION.

Forking Bitcoin will not somehow magically pull out half of all money invested in BTC. That's not how it works.

The BCC fork is essentially giving out a speculative asset proportional to the amount of BTC someone has, to mimic the BTC market. But this in no way magically makes BTC's marketcap fall in half.

The value of Bitcoin Cash will be what the market places in it. If the market treats Bitcoin cash like Bitcoin, then it will be worth whatever BTC is valued at. In terms of pulling money from BTC, the money can come from three sources

1) Bitcoin's marketcap
2) Any other altcoin's marketcap
3) Money outside of the crypto market

That is all the possible places the money can come from. Like any other free, unregulated market, the market itself will decide the price of Bitcoin cash and its value. Period. So no, Bitcoin is not going to just magically drop in price the minute the fork is released. Use your brain, don't be retarded.

>>2897030

What will happen is two one:
1) Whales are building the trap to throw their bitcoins at everyone's head and this can happen before the fork.
2) Extreme stupidity of people not to understand that the value of bitcoin is the total amount of money invested divided by the number of coins in circulation and that the value of Bitcoin Cash is not being created but stolen from Bitcoin plus their greed Will cause the Bitcoin value to drop just after the fork.

When I saw the value of Bitcoin rising I thought we were facing the first scenario but judging by the comments here in biz and practically all the cryptos in the red I am beginning to believe that is the second case.

So you can expect that bitcoin's value will plummet after the first day. Be prepared to sell and buy at the dip after that.

[Anonymous No.2898500]

A few points:
BCC is already taken as a currency abbreviation, by some scam ponzi called bitconnect. When Bitcoin Cash gets listed, it will likely be under BCH.
There is no reason to expect that the market cap will be conserved. The market cap of BCH + BTC could be less, more, or the same as BTC pre-fork. Seems like free money, breaking some law of economics, right? No because market cap isn't a representation of total investment or anything like that. It's just the price times number of coins. If everyone tried to sell to fiat to actually collect this free money, all crypto would be worthless. The fiat price can wobble up and down as it always does, the main number of interest is the BCH/BTC ratio.
Consider the following tremendous oversimplification: assume X BTC are actively traded. (On exchanges, managed by people who know what's going on, overall relevant to the situation. Long term holders and those living under a rock will just keep both). We'll assume everyone has the same amount, or just assume all references to fractions of the population are weighted by bitcoin holdings. More assumptions: 90% of active market participants will sell their BCH for BTC. 10% (the big blockers, a minority but not as insignificant as some think) will sell their BTC for BCH. The same number of BTC and BCH are in the market, so the market should logically exchange those 0.9X BCH for those 0.1X BTC, so the market price should be 0.11111111 (1/9) BCHBTC. If the BCH faction is smaller, the price will be lower, and vice versa.
There are now two approaches:
Try to estimate the ratio of support for the two coins. Sell if the price is higher than that ratio. Don't make the mistake of only accounting for the english speaking world, a lot of the support for BCH comes from china, where the miners feel like they're getting fucked.
If you do think that market cap should be conserved, then relax. Your BTC will drop by exactly the price of BCH. (So bitcoin down by 11% in my example). Cont >

The US has the largest equities market in the world, and you are kidding yourself if you think its rules won't have a global impact.

[Anonymous No.2898534]

>>2898500
So your total value will be conserved because the BCC and BCH will sum to the same value. Of course, if you think one will outperform the other in the long run, then it makes sense to move to 100% that, but that's a concern beyond the immediate neighbourhood of the split.
Basically, if you think BTC is doomed, there's no point selling because it'll be worth 0. If you think BCH is doomed, there's no point selling your BTC for it because BTC will go to zero any way. If you want to hedge your bets, keep both, and the market will price them according to their relative chances of success.
I don't think the markets are actually efficient (particularly in crypto), so I won't be taking this laid back approach. There's money to be made if you can guess the relative capital-weighted support for BCH better than the market.
Either way, once this is all behind us, expect to see a rally until the 2x hardfork slaps us down again.

but you could just stay and hold both BTC and BCC. wait for the market to recover even if it takes 1-2 months and you are back to your old BTC value + you gained whatever BCC is worth at that time.

Also I think it is probably smart to go into ETH right now because a lot of the money is flowing from ETH into BTC right now because of the free BCC on the horizon. So it is only logical some of that money will flow back into ETH and get it back up to where it was before it dropped a few days ago. or is that not a good assumption ?

That's a rough, but correct assessment. Bitcoin Cash technically has no special connection to Bitcoin. In a way, it's just like ETC....a coin borne out of disagreement within the community.

The smart thing to do right now is dump everything into BTC for the free BCC. This is why alts are crashing. As soon as BCC comes online, everyone is going to sell it and buy BTC, then dump all BTC into the low alts.

I have a few alts I can't sell because I would be at a huge loss. I know the smart thing to do would be to sell and buy back in after the first, but I am fine just holding for now, since I'm a small fish.

I'll definitely be taking advantage of BCC and buying back into alts that have lost the most immediately after the fork happens though.
