Every one is persuming that Bitcoin hard fork result will be same just like ETH had his hardfork and it failed and the price went down to 90% below it and it took so much time to reach back its high price. So Bitcoin will also fell down first and then their will be rise. Now everyone is just waiting for August 1 till then their wont be any major activity with bitcoin
This is actually at the back of our thinking since the idea of a coin split came up. There had been a precedent in the case of Ethereum so many of us can be assuming that the same thing and the same scenario would happen with Bitcoin once there can be a fork thing.
However, I still believe that there would no coin split as many Bitcoin leaders are not supporting such a move and that it is in the interest of the miners to preserve the current gains of Bitcoin. Allowing split is just like killing the very source of income they have.
We should tell these people to please do what can be the best for Bitcoin and the many small holders/users and not just think about their own selfish interest and concerns.
