...but this doesnt change the fact that there is only 1 bitcoin...
Look, we all know there is "one" BTC... but you are missing the technical details. The current BTC is technically NOT bitcoin! It is/will be relying heavily on third party. That is technically NOT bitcoin. The current BCH is technically same but a better and upgraded bitcoin.
That is why technically, current BTC is some weird frankenstein alt-coin which has managed to somehow keep the ticker BTC.
Of course, it does not mean people (like yourself) understand any of this. Perhaps BCH will die and the current BTC frankenstein alt-coin will live. We do not know that.
My hope is that people (including yourself) start realizing this fact and start moving away fromt he current BTC into the "real" bitcoin which is currently marked as "BCH".
My GUESS is that at some point, exchanges will start to rename current BTC into "BTC Classic" and the current BCH into "BTC". That, is ONLY my own guess which I am taking it out of my a** (of course) because I have no crystal ball.
Time will tell.
For now, I have my money in BCH because BTC is going down about 2500-2800 and technically speaking, I like BCH because that is indeed the "original" bitcoin (technically speaking).
Thanks you for admiting that there is ONE BITCOIN
I respect that you have your opinon that Bitcoin Cash is better, and thats fine. I CAN accept that. But these people saying that some new coin is now Bitcoin is silly.
Maybe you are right (I dont think so, but we can disagree on that, and that is OK) and Bitcoin Cash coin will become the top coin and overtake Bitcoin. Im just not going to let people go around and say that some other coin is Bitcoin unchecked, thats all. That is dishonest and misleading.
Check the post above yours and you will see ONE of the reasons why I dont believe Bitcoin Cash coin will not be the coin that overtakes Bitcoin.
But we can discuss that. That is opinion, and speculation, and I am happy to have that discussion.
THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME TO CLEAR UP THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OPINION AND FACTS. WE AGREE ON THIS POINT, JUST NOT WHICH COIN WILL END UP ON TOP IN THE END.
AND THATS OK.
We disagree, but we know the difference between facts and opinion, and with that in place, we can have a rational discussion, which is what this forum is all about.
