Bought 329 Segwit2x Futures on Bitfinex.
Sometime around the 6th.
Took a gamble yes I know, but after looking into it I believed Segwit2x would be the chain we all use as the real Bitcoin
News comes out that the fork is being called off, by the time i hear it about an hour later I check the futures price and it's trading at a whopping 90$ each
Moral of story :
Don't ever put almost half your portfolio in something risky like a forks futures

Ooh, I sincerely sympathize with you. But why did you contact these futures. I think there is absolutely no one to blame for your loss. You need to have your sober head on your shoulders, so that no such trouble occurs. Undecided
