RE: Are Your Bitcoin Safe After The Bitcoin Hard Fork? - The Bitcoin Hard Fork Explained As Simple As Possible
Question.. Is Coinbase considered a safe wallet during the hard fork or should I move BTC to Jaxx or Mycellium or paper wallet?
Coinbase is looking out for their customers and will probably favor the majority chain which will probably be segwit2x. Question is if bitcoin forks and splits like Ethereum and Ethereum classic did, will coinbase give customers both coins?
That is exactly the right question. By having full control of your own keys and not storing bitcoin on an exchange then this question becomes irrelevant because you can transfer either coin and any network at any time. You decide if you want to sell one coin or the other, when and where to do so, or to hold them both.
