I just want to use Bitcoin as a currency. I honestly do not care too much about the small differences between the two chains. They both have SegWit which will allow the Lightning Network which will allow for fast, cheap microtransactions.
Then it has to be bch, thats the aim of it.as Satoshis knew it would be..no 3rd party,no 2nd layer, lower fees, higher txps and more.
No my chain is better...no mine is...no mine!
Whatevs.
Most of my bitcoin spending is done via third parties already. I am ok with that.
I spend bitcoins on Amazon through Purse, I pay my rent through a Korean wire transfer service. I have bought gift cards to pay for meals in the US and buy food in Germany. It all gets recorded on the blockchain at some point. And it allows me to hold bitcoins as my main currency.
Why do you pay rent instead of own being in this game so long? why do you do all of this dorky payments instead of using a debit or credit card? why would you prefer your payments get recorded on a public blockchain vs a private bank or credit card leger that only you can see? Why would you care if you hold bitcoins as your main currency?
