So on the other hand, Node: Bitcoin ABC (Bitcoin Cash; Bcash) is stuck on Current height: 478558 from a couple of minutes after the block was mined. And there's been no blocks since.

It's going to take them 2000 blocks to get their mining difficulty adjusted? And while that's waiting, any transactions are stuck?

everything in bitcoin cash has been based on time instead of block numbers or number of blocks.
the fork was on a fixed time (12:20 UTC) if i am not mistaken which is block #478558 i don't know if stuck is the right word but since the hash rate is low for BCC and the difficulty is high it takes a long time to find a block so the blockchain is staying there and BCC nodes are rejecting the new blocks mined on bitcoin chain.

also their difficulty adjustment is based on time. it is after a fixed amount of time passed that they readjust the difficulty and lower it. i think it is after 6 hours with 0 blocks.

How long is that to mine a block in a normal amount of time?

Blocks in the real Bitcoin happen every 10 minutes. This Bitcoin Cash thing (or Bitmain Cash as I like to call it) it's having big, big problems right now. They haven't started mining yet a single block because there is a trigger mechanism that must be activated first, and this activation needs to mine a block that is larger than 1MB.

So not only their nodes are all fake and getting attacked, but they can't even get started mining.

This is what happens when you rush a hardfork. Take notes NYCtards.
