Another hard fork is happening, better to sell bitcoin now while its hot and buy lot of steem. I wonder why this people choose BTC over steem to the fact that steem has no transaction fee and exchange can be done swiftly, in a couple of mili second only.
Why would you sell BTC now? After seeing what happened the last time it forked, you'd be crazy to get rid of it prior to the next fork. If the new coin and the old both hold value like BTC and Bitcoin Cash then it would be smarter to BUY IN before the split so you could get both coins.
That is not how a normal fork happens like I stated BCH had massive amounts of outside funding before it was even converted over. If you want to see what happens during a normal forking check out Ethereum Classic
Yeah, ETH and ETC both have value. If you got out before the split you'd be kicking yourself right now.
It's more that bitcoin is accepted just about everywhere now. However some places are not accepting other alt coins so unless Bitcoin starts shaping up and it core developers start putting together a true plan and start moving on that plan this is going to continue to happen. They really need to put out an announcement.
