I thought it was pretty obvious if they committed to giving people their BCH balance they'd have to at least halfway support it. Plus, they never reported any setbacks. The people I talk crypto with and myself are already busy trying to guess what will make it on Coinbase/GDAX after BCH. If this development is any indicator, we're wasting our time since we can just wait until they announce and buy in the period between announcement and launch (assuming they announce the next one before launching it).
