Most people on the forum are of the view that BCC is just another altcoin and it is likely to just die off in sometime after August 1. It will or won't, this remains to be seen. In the meantime, are there any exchanges willing to offer BCC-BTC trading after the fork?

I am not referring to BCC futures. More along the lines of "BCC-BTC trading begins on xyz exchange on August 1 12:21 UTC".

there is a very good chance that it won't even happen because it may not even reach enough hashrate to be able to mine 1 block per 1 hour!
Bitmain recently announced that they were only talking about UAHF (which is the hard fork to increase the block size and what BCC is trying) because of existence of UASF and to counter it. and they also said they are happy because of New York agreement and the SegWit2x (which is clearly visible by the miners 100% support for it).

in a low chance that it actually happens and forks for real, it will be considered inferior chain, prune to many attack vectors because of lower hashrate, lower support and no decent developer working on it. the community support is also with the majority chain aka core or BTC. and that means nobody is interested in something with this many problems that is forking with little support.

on top of it there is the price problem. currently you can find it on ViaBTC (which is a Chinese exchange apparently) and the price has been falling ever since they listed it there (and the coins are not even released, there is no client even!!!). so far dropped from $560 to $340 in 3-4 days.
and as soon as it forks there majority's agreement is on dumping it. that means a lot of people will start dumping price will tank harder, and when that happens other will join in and price will go down to $100, $50 and so on.
miners who are on that chain finding 1 block every hour or more and getting paid $625(12.5 BCC @$50) instead of $32,000 (12.5 BTC @$2500 heading to $3000) will not continue mining there and it will be dead in a very short time.

as i said ViaBTC is the only one so far. a couple of other Chinese exchanges (small ones like ViaBTC) has said they may add it. but the major exchanges such as GDAX has clearly said they will NOT add support for this altcoin.
