The big issue though is that its not like the stock market. The crypto you are holding right now could in fact be worth zero the next day if this fork goes sideways. Also holding on the wrong side of the split can cause you to lose massive profits. Instead of taking that unknown risk most investors are pulling out and waiting for the dust to settle to see what is going to happen. There are billions of dollars at stake over the next few weeks and honestly its in the hands of all amateurs when you think about it.
