Most sources Ive seen have been saying the chain will fork at block 491407 / 25th october - as per the countdown on btcgpu.org

However the coinbase statemate gives a different picture

When will this fork occur?
The fork has already privately occurred at a point known only to the Bitcoin Gold development team. The Bitcoin Gold blockchain will be made publicly available when the Bitcoin blockchain reaches block number 491,407, which is currently estimated to occur on October 25, 2017.

So whats true story here? There's going to be a lot of disapointed people if they've been buying btc recently and the fork has already happened!

Everything I have seen says the 25th too.

why the fuck hard fork will affect the bitcoin price to go down ?

Because there are a bunch of people dropping alt coints to push money into bitcoin to get free bitcoin gold, once thats happened I highly suspect they will sell and go back to alt goings ASAP to try and catch their rise....
 
you dont understand English or what ?
Oh I understand English fine bud. Its just your response makes no sense to me in relation to the question I posted. Maybe you could clarify it a bit?

Indeed. So coinbase trying some FUD or what?

No idea tbh, just want it to be over ASAP to see if alt coins do bounce back as i'm mostly in Ethereum and OmiseGo right now.
 
Let’s see what happens in 3 days time then I guess :-)
 
Fork just happened minutes ago! Alts should start to rise now! Sell your BTC!!

The Alts I am holding are bouncing back pretty well :). Hoping for more on Ethereum and OmiseGo, not too bothered about the rest.
