Hang on LoyceV, are you saying I have 105 BTC actually for real?
I'm not saying that, .

And then derived amounts from forkcoins in addition to that?
Yes. But again: don't even think about Forks as long as your Bitcoins are in those addresses. Don't risk your Bitcoin for crummies in Forks.

My first reading of your reply was that the 105 BTC had been 'diluted' by the forking, but I would be happy to have misread that...
You misread it, that's not how Forks work.

While it's interesting to read such a nice success story, you should be more discrete with showing off your stash.
As long as OP is anonymous, that doesn't matter. But: he can expect PMs from scammers, and shouldn't trust anything send by PM. See this example.

Be carefull with your coins and don't talk about it!
Don't share this information in your local bar Wink
You should also figure out the tax implications, which will depend on where you live. Pay whatever tax is due, and enjoy the rest of your money. That way, you can also answer the questions your bank is going to ask you.
