Basically it depends where your wallet/coins are.
1. If you use a online wallet/service, you are locked into chain that they choose. Your coins will be valid still but on that single new chain.
2. If you use a wallet you control, depends on what chain you connect to. But, just using a local wallet, or a hardware wallet, at least you'll in time be able to choose a chain or other wallet provider you chose by configuration or by restoring your private key seed to a service on the chain you want to transact on.
Technically you could on both I guess if they remain forked after a while and there is not safeguards in place by exchanges/exit ramps to broadcast on both.

you will have 100 BTC and also you will have 100 BU.
You two are contradicting each other, aren't you??
Say i use blockchain as my webwallet, will i receive BU coins, or BTC coins? is there any statement regarding which chain they will choose?
Same goes for Electrum, what will they choose?
I don't understand the rise of popularity in a hardfork, it looks extremely dumb to me, and with me alot of other traders it looks like, if we see the current prices. Why do they keep pushing it?
