It seems from the look of things, all exchanges are not ready to support Bitcoin Cash in any way.
Most of the exchanges I makes use of for now, except bittrex has sent me an email stating they will not in anyway be supporting bitcoin cash and have asked users who wish to make use of bitcoin cash to please withdraw their cash before the fork day.
So my question is, does this mean bitcoin cash is dead on arrival? Does this spell doom for the forked currency already? From your point of view, do you think there may be a chance in the future for bitcoin cash?
Even if it survives the few first days after the fork, will you be converting your BCC to BTC immediately or will you leave it hoping the value will eventually be worth the keep?
It will not be considered instant dead. It will still continue to exist but as an altcoin. Though it is already clear that many exchanges will not support bch but some exchanges have already prepared two wallets for any updates and split that will occur on bitcoin. If bch will be launched it will be not like bitcoin, it will survive as another coin in the market and it is good to avail of that coin when it is low. But if btc will still be the one to be used and will not be replaced then I will be glad because this will mean that my saved bitcoins will not have a lower value but will continue to increase. But it is too early to tell, let us wait for the actual arrival of bch and observe how people will adopt and how they will support it.
