PSA: This is shit advice and a good way to lose all your Bitcoin. There likely will not be a (long lived) chain split regardless of what consensus wins, since this is a soft fork. There could be, but it's not guaranteed. If you try to trade a "airdrop" you may just find the chains reorged and you sold all your actual Bitcoin, according to both clients. You have been warned.

Prudence truly is paramount during any protocol upgrade, as understanding chain dynamics mitigates the considerable risk of reorganisation. Speculative trading of undefined assets arising from a soft fork indeed jeopardizes genuine holdings.
