I have not had any time to Steem lately but I find myself with a whole bunch of tabs open and no idea where to start.

The 2017 Bitcoin Fork is Tuesday!

Andreas Antonopoulos, explains what's going to happen and what choices you have.

I suggest using the https://Exodus.io wallet

Coinbase is not supporting BCC and XAPO will give you a choice to transfer your BCC out or exchange and add to your BTC balance. Nobody really knows what is going to happen, and Shapeshift makes that clear by saying they are just turning off for an indeterminate amount of time.

In China ViaBTC is already trading BCC

"This token will support the new blockchain should the hard fork occur. BCC opened for trading on July 22, where it managed to reach a high of 5,999 CNY ($886.64). It has since fallen to around 1,923 CNY ($284.17). Such a price slump could indicate that investors are still skeptical over the new coin and Bitcoin’s potential split."

It might go like this

I heard that Kraken will support BTC-BCC trading

On the BTC-e Money laundering Scheme

"Yesterday, on July 27, the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency communities were stunned by the discovery of WizSecurity, which revealed that BTC-e and its owner Alexander Vinnick were

directly involved in the Mt. Gox theft and security breach that led to the loss of around $2.2 bln worth of Bitcoin in losses."

"In total, the amount of Bitcoin laundered through BTC-e and Vinnick using his personal Bitcoin mixing tool was larger than Bitcoin’s market cap less than two years ago, in May of 2015."
