According to the doomsayers and FUDcallers, this is not going to save you.
Your coins need to be on a pre-fork/non-segwit address. Any coins you receive after the fork will most likely to have a segwit background. Since the adoption grows, the chances of getting non-segwit coins are becoming less and less.
That is not true. I already corrected that mistaken thinking. Please see
my reply to vapourminer.
Again I will delete this post.
Protection is provided by hodling in legacy addresses regardless of the lineage.
What rational individual would choose to not hodl in legacy addresses. Why take on the risk? Because you love Core? Oh please go ahead. Hodl in Core addresses. So then if ever the hardfork comes, you will not be able to sell the Satoshi tokens and buy Core tokens if you want to support Core.
But then that sort of indicates that Core is a failure if nobody can ever trust to hodl their addresses.
The game theory is undeniable.
Its not "Core" its Bitcoin and a big blocks hardfork is only existent in your dreams, deal with it.
Segwit is part of bitcoin now and no sane miner will burn his business by attacking bitcoin.
