It will be interesting to watch BTC development move forward. There was a huge portion of the community pushing for bigger blocks who have now shifted there holdings towards BCH. These people will now support keeping BTC crippled at 1 MB, as they believe that shifting value from BTC -> BCH is now the best solution. So we have a situation where both small-blockers will be pushing for no block size limit increase AND big-bockers (like me) will also be pushing for no block size limit increase. So I think it will be difficult for BTC to scale if Lightning Network (LN) doesn't work out as planned.
Why would LN not work out as planned? Just out of curiosity, I'm eager to know where the BCash hope is. Unless you want to keep it secret, so your master-plan to sabotage Bitcoin would not be revealed too soon.
