How is BCH the altcoin when it is much closer to what bitcoin looked like pre segwit? Segwit is the altcoion. segwit may or may not be a clever tech but looking at it from an outside perspective Core has changed bitcoin so much it can't be called bitcoin anymore. BCH on the other hand solved the block problem in the simplest way without changing the under lying technology.

Also don't underestimate who is suporting BCH. Some powerful people with very deep pockets. This is also obvious when looking at the price development.

When it comes down to it it's not you or me that get to determine what fork is the real bitcoin. The market has the final word on this. Lets see what happens.

CLoser to what Bitcoin looked pre segwit? Ok, if I do a clone right now, my fork will be the real Bitcoin because it is closer to the real thing? Bullshit.

Segwit was approved with 100% Bitcoin hashrate consensus. So anything not having Segwit is NOT Bitcoin. It's simple.

BCH may be a clone of an EX-Bitcoin.... which it isn't, because it has MANY changes: Difficulty adjustment algo, Block Size, etc etc..... but it isn't Bitcoin and will never be.

Want to think it is better than Bitcoin and it will dethrone it? Ok, not completely impossible, but that won't make it Bitcoin.

i have been posting here since the btcslack group was launched

by an anti-Core group

BCH was discussed at lengths on this slack, way before the fork

then the fork was announced on the Future of Bitcoin Conference

then futures trading of BCH began on ViaBTC

then the fork happened

mining took time

price went up

price went down

now price is going up again, and mining difficulty has caught many pro UASF pro core folks off guard

yet, here you are, some of you still saying you see Core as the likely winner.

Cant you see? The market continues to prove you wrong time and time again

I would n't rule out BCH if i was you. Really, best hold both, but dont bet on BCH failing

already, Core is pulling out of the 2X NYA agreement, which puts the main chain at even greater risk if miners AND business switch to BCH in Oct/November

Be careful choosing sides

BTW, btc slack is the best pace to get a low down on how BCH plans to kill BTC

Watch this space!

BCH doesn't support Segwit, so it will never be Segwit2X. There is a risk that Segwit2X, if core doesn't deliver, could replace Bitcoin, but BCH will be dead in any case. BCH is some unconsensuated altcoin that a minority decided to create using Bitcoin blockchain as some sort of massive airdrop. Even if they would implement Segwit and reduce its blocksize to 2MB to comply with Segwit2x it would still not be a legit "fork".

this is really weird. the bcash people try to kill btc? but the biggest btc hodlers got the most bcash.

I think you are right: the best strategy is to wait at least until January 2018 and hodl both coins.

Since BCH difficulty adjusted down yesterday an S9 mining BCH can break even in less than two months; that is a powerful incentive to mine BCH instead of BTC. Watch the hashrate.

I look at this Roger Ver battle as the last battle before $25k bitcoin. If Bitcoin can take down Roger's 400k Bitcoins, then it will be Mars for sure. I am giving Roger about a 2% chance of actually winning, however, I think he can put Bitcoin in a 6 month bear market in my view.

I don't think hashing power determines the real Bitcoin, only market cap and number active holder/users. Bitcoin Cash cannot replace the millions that hold Bitcoin very easily. Hell I cannot even figure out how to move my BCH without breaking out my text editor or using an Android wallet.

What do you mean by <  'Take down' Rogers 400k Bitcoins>  ? I am sure that he will retain a large holding of BTC, but of course he will be aiming to rebalance his portfolio, something like 300k BTC/ 1M BCH.

Remember BitcoinCash is also held by millions.  An airdrop of that scale has never been done before.  

I would agree that Core is likely to win, but there are many unknowns dead ahead, and it has to be a probability play.  The odds vs price are pretty much even, I would say.  (85/15 against BCH)

Yes, we still have ample room for growth. But the development of real life applications takes time.

I agree. the Dotcom bubble was anything but real life applications, though...  it´s really weird. in my view bitcoin will deliver what the dotcom bubble promised: aNEW ECONOMY.  thanks africoin for posting this.

I give BCH a 82.37% chance of succeeding. That's my very profesional estimate based on grabbing numbers out of my ass just like you are doing.

Bitcoin short term: within rising channel I see an upside target of $5,100, and in case of a correction downside resistance at $2,900.
