That comparison is made in favor of Bcash, it's just propaganda.
Your comparison doesn't even mention SegWit, which is a big advantage of Bitcoin, it allows Lightning transactions on the mainnet.
A stable lighting implementation for Bitcoin Core will make all altcoins unnecessary, including your Bcash.
Lightning transactions offchain, not on the mainet. Watch the video and repply me again after doing this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k14EDcB-DcE
Segwit makes 0 confirm transactions (faster than LN) unsecure, how is this an advantage?

LN will never work, is too difficult and expensive to open and close lightning channels.


PS: BCash is a fork of ZCash (https://medium.com/@freetrade68/announcing-bcash-8b938329eaeb), I was talking about Bitcoin (Cash) this kind of uninformed comments just make the enviroment more confusing to the newbies.
After you close the channel it will be broadcast on the mainnet, like the video also mentions.
There is a reason why I mentioned 'A stable lightning implementation', sure there are some problems that we don't have a solution for yet but does that mean we never will? Increasing the blocksize is too easy and just adds more centralization. If Bitcoin would be subjected to the same blocksize increase then I wouldn't be able to keep my node running, because it would cost my to much space.
