With the current version, the only way is to choose a server that you trust to be on the side of the fork you want. (disable auto-connect)

Right after the hard fork, we will be able to make a new release, that includes a checkpoint, because the block headers will differ.

Hi ThomasV,
I love the electrum wallet and have been a user for 3 years now. I have many portable wallets on many USB sticks, I keep a bitcoin on each stick. However, how am i to know which server to choose? How will I know which server to trust? How do I know if the server I choose belongs to Roger Vere or not?

I could run my own electrum server but i am a windows kiddie and do not use Linux distributions. I stay way clear of Ubuntu for Political reasons relating to Mark Shuttleworth as i am a British National.

Although I love the "portability" of elecrtum portable wallets, i also run a Core Full Node that signals for SegWit.
Maybe I would be better off putting all my Bitcoin on a Core Node wallet until this charade is over.

I do not support Bitcoin Unlimited as they are like all altcoins, a Privately owned monetary system with a single point of failure, the owner.
Bitcoin is public money with no single commander in chief.

When the fork happens I will want to claim my BUCs so I can immediately sell them for BTC.
If you love Bitcoin and love freedom, I suggest all readers do the same.

So,.. ThomasV,
Will electrum put out a wallet after the fork for splitting coins?
Will electrum put out a wallet after the fork with replay protection for BUCs?
Will there be a portable version?
Will electrum put out a wallet after the fork with replay protection for BTC, because all current electrum wallets have no replay protection?

People, you are about to enter a world of REPLAY ATTACKS where coins spent on one chain will disappear from the other.
The only advise i can give you all is MATTHEW 24:4
"Watch out that no one deceives you"

The fork will happen when you least expect it, Be prepared!
