So United Bitcoin requires you to have sent a transaction in order to be credited with fork coins. Any address which has not sent coins is counted as “inactive”.
But of course most wallet software sending BTC simply splits the funds into two transactions - the sum being sent and a change transaction to a new address.
Which of course means that your sending address can’t be credited with UB coins because it’s now empty and your change address can’t be credited with coins because it’s “inactive” because it has never sent a transaction.
Which basically means Garzik keeps all the coins but gets to claim a market cap based on a Bitcoin airdrop. Garzik is so clever....

No, I don't think it works like that. They took a snap shot on December the 12th or something like that so even if those addresses have no coins I think they will be credited with how many coins were on them when the snapshot took place. Even if all coins were sent it should still be good.
