BCH has done some speculative statements to increase the value of the coin so the miner companies can dump their coins each for $2400 instead of 300. That was just a game they have played to manipulate the market. I would highly recommend everyone to stay away from BCH because they are not really trustable people.
What I have read is they and they are the ones trying to manipulate the market without any one pointing to give a credible evidence that someone or group of people in particular are the ones responsible. I personally, would not for whatever reason take BCH over BTC and those who felt otherwise, good luck with them and we wish them the best of what they hoped for. And now that BTG has launched, I will like to see the other card that would be played in that regard.
