RE: Bitcoin $17,000 Target Update & SegWit2x Returns
It's hard to find a clear answer especially since a lot of news is from before the second announcement on Dec 26th (still looking). Please reply if you have any other info.
I think hardware is the best option but some exchanges may support the fork. This is a list of exchanges from October which might give some minor indication but don't count on it. At first glance, I don't see any that have made a more recent official announcement.
WARNING THIS LIST IS NOT ACCURATE ANYMORE

I've seen others recommending Binance and Bittrex because they are generally good at this but I don't see any official announcements.

SegWit2x has a list of exchanges on the home page, I haven't heard of any of them.
