Thank you for your answer.
I agree with you about BitShares and hoping after some up and down it will get a bigger share of the market.
Hey there Dutch,
Can you please help me out in understanding the segwit2x better :)?
I read a post in bitcoin-magazine or something like that about this and that bitcoin would be implementing this in august and therefore the price would drop.
What I'm trying to understand is: does this only effect Bitcoin or does it effect altcoins as well? - I'm still trying to wrap my brain around block-chain technology so I'm having a hard time with this :s.
For example, I bought some Litecoin(LTC), Golem(GNT), Ripple(XRP) and Digibyte.
Anything, anyone, please help and advise me. You and your help/advice will be so much appreciated !!!
segwit2x is update for bitcon
so your other coins wount be affected.
simply explanation: segwit2x update meant to increase the number of transaction that bitcoin can make.
the fear is that segwit2x upgrade will cause many problems(to miners and ex.) that will lead to price drop.
hope you got it :)
(rate me plz :) )
