keep your btc in cold storage.
after the fork, move your btc to a new wallet address for security.
then load the old wallet address into an "ecash" wallet, transfer to exchange, sell, and buy btc with the profits.
its what we all did when bcash split off.

Kajoozie is correct ✅
How does this work if I have coins in a multi sig setup?
Key is the move the bitcoin to a new seed and back that new seed up never input it anywhere. Worse case that can now happen with old seed is they steal your shitcoin fork coins if you put it in somewhere malicious which will be more of those this time around compared to bcash fork days. Make sure it's legit wallet software for shitcoin fork so you can move it to an exchange to convert for more Bitcoin.
What a pain. I think I’ll just ignore it.
Just ignore it all.
It wouldn't have any liquidity anyway, other than what idiots try to pump and dump with and that would be a very small window
Someone let me know when the fork happens

You think we get a significant amount?
you'll get the exact same # of ecash as you had btc (unless you're satoshi, then you get 0)
the question is what exchanges will list it and how fast will it drop to 0 against btc?
coinbase listed bcash right away and the price plummeted immediately.
There's a downside. In this case you give your data to the exchange. Immediate need for coinjoin coordinator in the fork coin.
