summary of what happened:
- August 1st BCH was created to attack bitcoin, they implemented EDA or difficulty manipulation
- SegWit2x was suspended
- BCH pumpers used this to FUD bitcoin and pump BCH
- higher price of BCH + lower manipulated difficulty => incentive for miners to switch
- sudden lower hashrate on bitcoin + no difficulty manipulation => temporary harder to find blocks
- lower number of blocks found => bigger mempool => higher fees.
all will be fine soon
- difficulty adjustments will start + the BCH pump will end => incentive to mine BCH is removed
Thanks for this informations and I hope that this problem of the high transactions fees will fix and the BCH pump will end soon. From the beginning i didn't like the idea of the split of bitcoin. I mean bitcoin cash, i don't know why they want destroy bitcoin by these forks. Anyway, I believe that bitcoin is too strong, and it will be not die at least in upcomming 10 years.
