I agree with the distribution phase idea, and wonder what the low price point will be when it's done...

Although the price is important, you actually have to look at the possible mindset of any holders who are not exactly staunch Bitcoin Cash supporters. Bitcoin Cash may see a slight rally coming up, as the impending Segwit2x fork draws closer. However, many may simply chose to get a hedge on this expected event by converting their BTC to fiat or other alts, so the rally may be tiny. Once the Segwit2x fork drama is in play, if it is not going well for the other chains, expect this rally to continue, and this will probably be a good time to consider accumulating. However, if it appear the fork is going well for either new forks, expect a dump of BCH. Many people have decided to HODL the original BCH that they received as a hedge for this upcoming fork. Once they feel they have the "all clear" signals after the fork, they are liable to feel they no longer need the hedge and dump. The other dumping phase will begin after Coinbase distribute the BCH to their users in January. After this all plays out for a couple of weeks, I think the accumulation phase for Bitcoin Cash will definitely have arrived.

It seems like you've thought this through, but please allow me to interject a few points as well.

If Kore's 1xBTC fork dies in a death spiral, which really could happen due to sudden hashrate loss and/or an attack from miners, this will cause a major loss of confidence in BTC as a store of value. Sure, people can say "Oh, BTC is 2x now, we knew it all along.", but what about those who lost funds being on the wrong side of history clinging to their 1x coins? Those will be practically worthless!

Personally, I started losing confidence in BTC 2 years ago when it became clear that the scaling wouldn't ever get done. That's what created the whole market for alts IMHO. And that's why BCH has tremendous potential to pick up where BTC left off - with 8x the transaction capacity with 4000x lower fees.

Of course all the Kore minions will be emotional. But what choice will they have? Follow the longest chain supported by the most hashpower, or be left behind.
