Better safe than sorry!

@btcmillionaire I do agree with you .

@louiscpt thanks for sharing! I wrote up a little article regarding Bitcoin Cash that is related to this whole mess! https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@bigdeej/bitcoin-cash-what-it-is-and-how-it-effects-you-bitcoin

Thats early

@misterholland yes that was a surprise for me to .

Smart move. Never make the same mistake twice. @louiscpt hackers are still the biggest enemies to the crypto world in general. So whether later or early every decision made to secure funds is a wise. By the way, the earlier the better.

@simeonburke yes that is scary to think that with one hack you can lose everything, that is what i like about Steemit your funds are more secure on this platform with the delayed with drawls .

But you can still transact with Bitrex using BTC. Last night I vested in another coin using my BTC and I had no problem. You just cannot deposit or withdraw BTC from the wallet, but you can use it to transact other business.

@retiredinsamar yes that is correct ,what coin did you get ?

Got me some CVC!

This is why I have been advising people to get their bitcoin into their own wallet and wait at least a few weeks till things figure themselves out before moving any funds! Thanks for sharing!

@bigdeej that is very good advice with all the confusion in the air
