Very interesting article. So many unknowns will bring a lot more volatility to BTC and altcoins market in my humble opinion. Especially if trading any of the possible BTC coins is not recommended from August 1 to the 14th. Will people just hold there money where it is or will we see money pulled from BTC and moved into the altcoin market until this is over? Money could go into FIAT as well which may pull down the entire market more.

If splits occur will the chains maintain the same price? If so, would that effectively double or quadruple (if 4 chains emerge) an individuals holdings? Is there money to be made here? Inquiring minds want to know.
