I prefer Litecoin to Bcash, but there are much more innovative altcoins. Litecoin is basically just a copy-paste of Bitcoin. I'm happy to trade its occasional pump cycle, but it's incredibly painful to hold historically. Once the bull market is over, get as far away from LTC as you can.

It sounds like you are considering "investment" in Bcash. I'd reconsider. Think about why Bitcoin is valuable: its network. So there is very high demand and a very limited supply. Bcash doesn't have that network value. It's got a few big names pushing it, but that's it. Cheap transactions obviously aren't drawing Bitcoin's network to switch to Bcash.

Core's been fighting the good fight for years. Now that Segwit is active, Lightning transactions are being tested on the mainnet. I think we're looking at exponential scaling mechanisms inside of a year or two. Pretty amazing.
