yawn
people only screaming about the price

Some people actually want to use it for stuff. That's why it becomes a serious problem when it's too expensive to transact. BCH will never have this problem because no one uses it for anything.

When you look at BCH communities they honestly have no endgame. They are against a coin being a store of value and just rant about "superior tech".

The fact is that there are far superior coins out there to both currencies.

The only thing going for Bitcoin is that it's an accepted store of value, it was the coin that started it all and a reserve currency, the only thing going for BCH is that it's a fork of something valuable with a similar name. Neither coin are remarkable compared to newer coins they are both inferior.

If they destroy BTC, (which make no mistake, this is what they're aiming for, check their Reddit) it won't be their coin that claims the throne, at least not for more than a week.

They would destroy their own coin, they would destroy the concept of a "digital gold" store of value, and they would probably kill the whole market if that safety net is gone. Everything will look like tulipmania, twats like Jamie Dimon and Peter Schiff would be proven right and these plotters would go right back to being insignificant nerds, rather than nerds who got lucky.

The whole purpose of Segwit1x(BTC) is to stall the development, increase the transaction fees, and force people into centralized banks on the blockchain (lightningNetwork), which will do transactions off the blockchain.
If you like the decentralized bitcoin project, you should stop all support for the hijacked coin.

The only hijacking is going on from Ver and cronies with their manipulation. Bitcoin Cash will never be accepted as Bitcoin, not by our community or by outsiders looking in. The only thing they would do if they could pull a flip off (which they can't because it's less popular than cancer) is trash the concept of a store of value.

I could name a dozen coins, even coins derided as shitcoins that are "better tech" right now than both coins. There's only one Bitcoin and you ain't it.

So you don't care that the BTC will become off limits to the users, and will only be for banks (centralized off chain hubs)?
You do realize this is where it is heading with segwit and lightning network?

Again I disagree with your leading question, but the point I've made which you people don't seem to grasp or respond to is that you ain't Bitcoin, only Bitcoin is Bitcoin. And how centralized is it to have megalomaniac Roger Ver decide he wants BCH to be Bitcoin, even though no-one will accept it?

I can give you 1 Xios right now for 1 BCH, it's a fair trade as Xios is faster and less centralized, you can even run a masternode if you have 1000, such awesome. Roll Eyes

We can call it Bitcoin Xios, get a few very rich people on board and we can fill our pockets. We'll be rich. Roll Eyes

This is madness. With lightning network you can kiss the blockchain goodby.
It won't be for you anymore. You will do transactions via banks that settle on the blockchain. Your account can then be controlled, regulated and censored.
It is 100% goodby to decentralization and freedom. You can be shut down at any moment.
BCH is nothing of it. The blockchain is still there for us to use.
