BCH was pointless from the very begining. It was created in order to spread FUD while spamming the original network. Bitcoin Cash devs claim that it was created to remove bitcoin's disadvantages but:
1. If you need biger blocks you coula already use LTC. It have bigger blocks, fast transactions and low fees.The point that BCH blocks are even bigger is not making any sence, the diffirence if insignificant for anyone.
2. Even if we accept that BTC network was not spammed then just take a look at its fees at the peak times. 20$+ fees was a normal thing. if you split this number by 8 you will still get higher fees then BTC had at the begining of the previous year and that is the fee that BCH will have with the same market cap. Scaling on blockchain is not an option.
3. Lightning network is going to solve all issues with tx speed and fees. BCH will become completely pointless. It is already useless but then it will be even worse.
