Bitmain Signalling Segwit2X. Are We Nearing the End of the Bitcoin Drama?
Bitmain Tweeted, "All Our Bitcoin mining pools will start running the new Segwit2x software today".
I truly wish all of these people messing with my money would find consensus and make the necessary fixes. I would prefer Bitcoin stays the way it is but heh, I am just a mere user. I don't care about bigger blocks or the ability to make payments using Bitcoin. I just want it to be a place where I can hold assets.
Here is the Graphic I Shared Yesterday Concerning the Different Soft and HardForks.
Now That it Appears We Will Be Forced to Accept This Hardfork, What Do You Think Will Happen?
Since Segwit2x is a hardfork that will go down on November 5th we could have another run until the FUD starts kicking in again around that time. I will be in Europe for SteemFest at that time so this will be interesting talk at the conference.
It Seems the Markets Really Like It. We are Up a Few Hundred Dollars from the Bitcoin Low.

I am Cautiously Optimistic.
The selloff we just witnessed was a game to get cheaper coins. Once we blow past this scaling debate the market is going through a major tear. Shit coins will con't to be dumped though. The next run will show us who true leaders will be. Buckle up b/c the rocket is about to blast off! We may see 30%-40% moves on Bitcoin in just one day. Ethereum could see $500 by next few weeks and BTC at $4000 all most over night.
Bitcoin is Rising!
For sure. the next two weeks will be the best opportunity to have huge profits on december because of scary of people
what is happening in December?
I mean buy then of august 1 because you will see many coins with low value so you can buy them cheap and in december the prices will be bigger
I have to agree with your last words, I am cautiously optimistic too! Have a great time gaining information to share with all of us at steemfest.
My article about the subject:

Bitmain indeed started to signal segwit2x today which is good news!
There will most likely be a chain split on August first as there have been several pools allowing users to support the SegWit free chain. Many people do not want SegWit for very valid reasons. See my post below.
There is no end to the drama in sight. Especially with SegWit2x. There will certainly be re-evaluation of the 2x part after SegWit is activated.

I'll be honest with you Randy......... I hope the drama goes on for about 2 more months and we see the price of Bitcoin fall down to like $300. That way I can come in like a greedy broom and sweep it all into my pocket before it rises back up.
I agree with you @hilarski on having Bitcoin as a store of value. If a user wants transaction speed there's always DASH and Litecoin; either would make great "coffee coins." Not too comfortable playing games with Bitcoin. But, if the drama does start to settle down now that things seem to be moving in that direction, maybe we can get back to business as usual until the next wave of FUD hits. Here's hoping for the best!
Can't be one hundred percent sure what gonna happen. Let's just prepare and wait.
Thanks for info man!)
Hopefully all the drama ends soon...
Hopefully Bitcoin figures out their scaling issues. Since the early days, some have argued for Bitcoin to increase the maximum number of the coins allowable to be greater than 21 million.
Hopefully something like this would never happen!
