I watched it unfold live on the Tone Vays stream... brilliant coverage and insight
So whose going to win out?
Is there a future for either?
Is there so much disagreement within the communities that one or both of them will fork again at some point?
Will they fork themselves into oblivion?
Can a fork from bitcoin ever be successful?
These thoughts and many more... thought I'd stick them all in to one post... please share yours

Who's going to win?
BCHABC officially won hash war.. read the announcement on

Announcement
Coin Dance is now able to declare that both active chains will continue to be permanently split into the foreseeable future. The majority of businesses in the cryptocurrency ecosystem are now using Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to refer to the chain maintained by miners operating in consensus with the latest implementations from Bitcoin ABC, Bitcoin Unlimited, Bitprim, Bitcoin XT, bcash, and bchd. A number of exchanges have added support for the Bitcoin SV chain under the Bitcoin SV (BSV / BCHSV) name but general app support is currently very limited. Expect to see announcements made from each of the major companies in the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem that clarify which chain(s) they will support going forward.
Is there a future for either?
BCHABC is BCH as we already knew it, so the adoption with businesses and all will continue and grow even further without that Craig parasite.
BCHSV will also continue to exist however its price will drop to the 20$ range since
its current market cap (equivalent to Cardano!..) is completely unjustified.
