If UASF has the potential to result in two Bitcoin networks, wouldn't that make it a hard fork? What else can UASF do? And why is it so geared toward off-chain scaling proponents?
Make sure your computer security is absolutely sound. That is the most important thing. I would use a dedicated mini computer as your wallet. A fresh install, no bloatware, good anti virus, anti malware and a good OS.
Purchase a hardware wallet! About the safest you can be : store your private keys inside an external device. I don't regret buying a trezor some time ago. During the process of setting it up, you also need to put a token sequence down on paper that you need can store in a safe place and use to restore your wallet if you ever loose it.
Ledger Nano S. I purchased one recently, you may need to order it from overseas. Order it now, otherwise you may not get it before Aug1st. You will find Utube instructions on how to instal - it's very easy xx
Just have your private keys, then you can import to any wallet.
Good question for people with less knowledge though - thanks!
Hi kingscrown,great post, do you know of any links to info for newbies like me about this subject,upvoted.
what if we use online wallet instead?

An online wallet is never a good idea, yes you would be at risk. Download a wallet, there are many options.
thanks, I will check some offline wallets :)
As in all of those words and numbers when setting up a new wallet?

I would recommend a Ledger Nano S. https://www.ledgerwallet.com/products/ledger-nano-s You need to be on a system where you control your keys. Do not leave on exchange before USAF.
Why? What will happen if i havent transfer any? Hardware wallets are in demand nowadays and will have stock this coming september..
