I'm also not sure if bitcoin cash is real bitcoin or original bitcoin.
bitcoin cash is a fraction of bitcoin, then it is unlikely to be a real bitcoin.

you are getting two things wrong. there is no real, original, blah blah... bitcoin. there is only "bitcoin". and bitcoin is what the overwhelming majority decides is bitcoin. if having no SegWit and having 8 MB blocks could gain this majority it would have been bitcoin and since it couldn't do that, it is an altcoin.

secondly price doesn't matter in this argument. of course it is obvious that bitcoin will always have a higher price than all of its forked altcoins but that is not set in stone. for example there are altcoins (42 coin for example) that are worth a lot more than bitcoin but that doesn't make them any good.

If Bitcoin Cash was the real Bitcoin then it would have been the pioneer crypto. not an altcoin. BTC remains the real deal despite the fact that the market has largely fallen hence its value

yes, the value of bitcoin cash is very high, but I see bitcoin cash does not have a good plan, and also the selling power in the market is still weak.

Then that would mean Bitcoin's market dominance is only 4%! Hahaha!

Now we know why they are always so angry at Bitcoin while spreading all of Roger Ver's propaganda. They have no recourse but to accept the truth and sell all their Bitcoin Cash coins back to Bitcoin.

I've actually seen quite a few articles and documents that came up claiming that bitcoin cash was the new bitcoin. I'm not sure if people will actually do research into this before they jump into putting their money into bitcoin cash, if they put any money into it at all. A lot of members here and those who support bitcoin see bitcoin cash as just a lowly branch off of bitcoin that seems more like a scam than anything. In my eyes as well, I doubt bitcoin cash will ever surpass bitcoin. Bitcoin has the name and the "brand" in a sense, and there's nothing that bitcoin cash can do to take that away.

if they could gain the support they would have been "bitcoin" and since they failed at it, their page of the history is closed for a long time now.

it would still be as meaningless as bitcoin "dominance" being (i don't even know how much it is right now)% since people are mistakenly calling "market cap" as dominance.

If he gets invited on stage in conferences then there might be some part of the community that believe that he really is Satoshi. Roger Ver does and so does Gavin Andresen.

I don't think anyone believes that his satoshi, but there are people who believe in bitcoin cash and that bitcoin cash is better than bitcoin.

But we all know bitcoin cash wouldn't reach this far if it was released with a different name.

No. For "BCash" to be Bitcoin, it would have meant that we would have had consensus and the block size would have had increased.
I don't want to discuss about that if it would have been a good or bad decision, it doesn't matter at all in this now.
But the consensus was to keep the current block size and adopt SegWit. The consensus is Bitcoin. Period.

They chose to fork. So we have yet another altcoin which doesn't bring anything new (sorry, but why would anybody chose BCash over Litecoin for example?).
So the 4% is much more than they deserve.

TL;DR; Bitcoin dominance would have not changed, since the only way BCash would be Bitcoin would have meant consensus and no fork. The current 4% is because BCash is an altcoin with not much use.

I have new found respect for Vitalik Buterin for calling out Craig Wright's fraudulent claims of being Satoshi. Are the people in the Bitcoin Cash community really united in believing that he's Satoshi?

I'm subscribed on /r/btc not because I agree with them, but because I want both sides of the argument. I really don't see people there siding with Craig Wright to be honest.

But who was really being a dick by proclaiming that "Bitcoin Cash is the real Bitcoin"?

Well, technically and code-wise, bitcoin cash is actually closer to bitcoin's original code. Not saying that it's overall better, though.

Do Roger Ver and Gavin Andresen actually believe that he is the real Satoshi? Do you have sources for this? Legit question; not trying to insult.

So you're a Bitcoin guy, why are you trolling the Bitcoin Cash folks? What's your game here or are you just a dick?

franky1, Jonaldfyookball. Can you answer this please?

I've never seen any formal support from Roger or other Bitcoin Cash supporters of Craig Wright - maybe I've been living under a rock - is this really a thing?

By the way, Craig Wright is the Donald Trump of Bitcoin...he's a all talk, and no substance.
