OK.... but isn't your entire premise based on the fact that non-XT coins (Core Coins) will somehow be so widely demanded based on the fact that non-XT will ultimately become a new sort of underground Alt-Coin in effect? I mean - MY PREMISE is based on XT wins.
So maybe I am not understanding - but is this the underlying principle of your position? That non-XT Bitcoin will be a highly demanded "underground" alternative version to the XT Bitcoin (which is what the masses, and financial institutions will use - because it won?) And I am not trashing your principle - but it is more of a gambling strategy than an investment /wealth protection strategy.
I don't make assumptions other than that the fork will happen. The guide is steps required for minimization of damage.OK - well, my scenario question did make a presumptive scenario - which I guess your answer is ignoring, so therefore has no value.
And it sounds like yourargument does indeed make an assumption based on the fact that you said,
"You will be unable to double your coins and earn money by selling non-XT coins."You are basically ASSUMING that there will be a market for non-XT coins after the fork. You are assuming that there won't be an immediate Flash Crash of the losing chain.
I mean, in that scenario, you are simply gambling. Not a smart one either it seems, because if your Bitcoin is worth $200 prefork, and non-XT chain flash crashes to $10 - I hardly see the value in taking $200 Bitcoin, that will probably start soaring in the XT Chain once the drama is over, and trying to "Double" your Bitcoin by moving it to a Chain that has a $10 value - and you double it $10 x2 to $20. Now that is investment genius.
