What is the plan with BCH? There is absolutely 0 effort in marketing or brand building going on... on the contrary there is massive fud all over the internet against BCH and apparently nobody finds it worth providing a counter argument to any of this....

I find everything relating to BCH very peculier... massive fud from Core ( to an extend they dominate headlines in Forbes, and other major outlets), and fud is usually out of fear..... massive obstruction by anti-miners to stop the diff adjustments... which is again a sign some parties definitely see BCH as a potentially fatal thread...

Absolutely no marketing or promotion anywhere to be found... this one i find most peculier... Because if the Aug1 fork was about presenting a better alternative, the logical approach would be to show vision, do marketing and win hearts and minds of the crytpo community... But there is no effort at all to any of this...

This tells me the ''plan'' is not about ''satoshi's true vision'' per se... it is reliant on just economics... It seems BCH knows that the mining profitability is the most important key for success, and this profit advantage is inevitably being reached soon if i understand correctly.... So they are just sitting there waiting and waiting for the right moment...? Does this mean a rocket pump will be imminent once miners can earn more on BCH?

The plan for BCC/BCH is the same plan that was announced by Satoshi Nakamoto many years ago. Bitcoin Kore has derailed Satoshi's original vision severely, to the point that they forced users, miners, and node operators to adopt Segwit, a "solution" that is neither needed nor useful. The real problem was that Kore refused to remove an artifical blocksize limit which caused Bitcoin fees to skyrocket and the Bitcoin network to become very slow. I'm summarizing 2+ years of arguing here and elsewhere.

Kore is panicked because the BCC fork worked, people are mining it, and the value is fairly steady around 0.1BTC. Kore constantly trolls and FUDs about anything that is not theirs - this is actually not normal behavior in a business environment. BCC and crippled-BTC can co-exist and likely will for the next few years.

No one needs to market BCC - it's simply "Bitcoin", without a bunch of unnecessary crap added on by Kore. BTC now has become corrupted and less useful. My guess is that the Bitcoin Cash devs are busy writing code, fixing bugs, and concentrating on getting BCC adopted for payments and exchanges. I think it speaks in their favor that they didn't roll out some fancy graphics and hire a shrill bozo like Samson Mow to bleat out tweets... "Substance not Spin".

Next there will be drama with the Segwit 2x fork. Eventually Kore will launch the Lightning Network, with much fanfare and pumping of BTC exchange rates. My prediction is a lukewarm reception, other than big hype from idiots like Tone Vays.

At the end of the day, the markets will decide... is there something wrong with "relying on economics"?
