Confirmed!
As surprised as I was, will leave it here with you...
>The Segwit2x effort began in May with a simple purpose: to increase the
blocksize and improve Bitcoin scalability. At the time, the Bitcoin
community was in crisis after nearly 3 years of heavy debate, and consensus
for Segwit seemed like a distant mirage with only 30% support among miners.
Segwit2x found its first success in August, as it broke the deadlock and
quickly led to Segwit’s successful activation. Since that time, the team
shifted its efforts to phase two of the project - a 2MB blocksize increase.
Our goal has always been a smooth upgrade for Bitcoin. Although we
strongly believe in the need for a larger blocksize, there is something we
believe is even more important: keeping the community together.
Unfortunately, it is clear that we have not built sufficient consensus for
a clean blocksize upgrade at this time. Continuing on the current path
could divide the community and be a setback to Bitcoin’s growth. This was
never the goal of Segwit2x.
As fees rise on the blockchain, we believe it will eventually become
obvious that on-chain capacity increases are necessary. When that happens,
we hope the community will come together and find a solution, possibly with
a blocksize increase. Until then, we are suspending our plans for the
upcoming 2MB upgrade.
We want to thank everyone that contributed constructively to Segwit2x,
whether you were in favor or against. Your efforts are what makes Bitcoin
great. Bitcoin remains the greatest form of money mankind has ever seen,
and we remain dedicated to protecting and fostering its growth worldwide.

After years of debate, no final decision was made...
Well, we don’t have it around here though it was annoying to see this debate unfold yet without final cut we are back to square one. Except BCH happened...
What do you think will happen to the price, alts will blossom or ... ?!

Hello & Cheers!! I'm a content detection and information bot. You are receiving this reply because a short link or links have been detected in your post/comment. The purpose of this message is to inform your readers and yourself about the use of and dangers of short links.
To the readers of the post: Short links are provided by url shortening services. The short links they provide can be useful in some cases. Generally their use is benign. But as with all useful tools there are dangers. Short links can be used to hide all sorts of things. Quite frequently they are used to hide referral links for instance. While not dangerous this can be deceptive. They can also be used to hide dangerous links such as links to phishing sites, sites loaded with malware, scam sites, etc. You should always be extremely cautious before clicking on one. If you don't know and trust the poster don't click. Even if you do you should still be cautious and wary of any site you are sent to. It's always better to visit the site directly and not through a short link.
To the author of the post: While short links may be useful on some sites they are not needed on steemit. You can use markdown to format your links such as this link to steemit. It's as simple as [steemit](https://steemit.com) Unlike short links this allows the reader to see where they are going by simply hovering over the link before they click on it.

I feel like sending those people Hamlet's soliloquy: TO BE OR NOT TO BE. That's the question. Well, I feel disappointed. I was one of those people who tried to sell the other coins and bring some fiat money in to be prepared for this fork. Again, this looks like what internet has been all its life: a non-trusting phenomenon. To be a good enterpreneur, you need to have certain qualities that many of those people who want to have an online business lacks. In many cases, they don't want to put any effort and dedication to what they are constructing. And the spirit of being a decision maker is not visible. So, a cancellation for this or that is very potential and not only that, sometimes they dare to abandon the business with no notification and even close pages. Segwit2x is a thumb down right now. The cointelegraph just announced like this: "A circular sent to the mailing list by major proponent Mike Belshe says that it was “clear” the project “had not built sufficient consensus for a clean blocksize upgrade at this time.”
SegWit2x will therefore not activate Nov. 16 as planned, Belshe not naming a possible future date."
I think if Belshe would try today to give a date today, many people would say NO to him anyway.
Bitcoin.com just decided to close doors: "Roger Ver, appearing disappointed at the NYA signers’ decision to cancel, released a message confirming his Bitcoin.com resource would strictly deal with Bitcoin Cash only in the future."
The good news is that Bitcoin went up higher. For the last 2 to 3 days was going down, close to $7000 and now it is above $7500. Good time to invest in some potential coins with the extra money, just in case it goes a little bit down in the future. Although, with the holidays so close, probably it wont go down. I hope so.
