i did not see any proof why we should switch to BCH and why is your new king!
Why in hell we should stop supporting the first coin created and the technology behind? I do agree blockchain is getting old and we need a new one with faster transactions, lower fees and so on but switching to a forked coin it's nosense.
Really, an easy and simple way to see if a coin have future is to check their community behind: if the coin is supported widely and strongly it will survive, otherwise will die in a short while and i don't see BTC community losing interest or supporting 100% another coin.

Because BCH is just a fork, that's the first point.
And BCH is the product of the miners, most of them are in the hands of the miners, so I think BCH is worthless and can't replace bitcoin.

Why do you guys think we didn't move to BCH from BTC? Even though the segwitx2 was cancelled, BCH still seems to be Bitcoin 2.0

LOL. Bitcoin Cash is simply not gonna replace Bitcoin, it was been made out in Bitcoin and only an altcoin, basically people tend to hype that coin and people really got FOMO'd.

it's hard to understand why forks don't reach such popularity as bitkoin. may they haven't strong marketing strategy? in the presence of such serious advantages, bitcoin would have to stay in past.  Huh

There is nothing rational in this game.  It is all about names, beliefs, lies and sentiment.

Because crypto is somewhere in the middle between religion and a Keynesian beauty contest.  You don't pick what you like and believe, you pick what you think others will like and believe.   As the bitcoin brand name is the de facto property of Core, people think that people think that people prefer the original name "bitcoin", and hence have to follow Core.

BCH is the original Satoshi bitcoin, in the same way that ETC is the original ethereum, sticking to the original principles (in BCH that is on-chain transactions, in ETC it was "the code is the law" which was the fundamental principle of ethereum).  But nobody gives a shit about principles.   Names and celebrity is what counts, not principles because what counts is selling to a greater fool that has more belief than you.

If you think 2 minutes about it, BTC is stuck in his block size and block time ; BCH is stuck in keeping transaction malleability (solved by Segwit).  Both have part of a solution, and both have part of a handicap.  When you look at LTC, it has both solutions: faster, segwit (and hence ready for atomic swaps, the true application of segwit), and no religious small blocks.  But nevertheless, LTC stays behind.  Because greater fool hopes.

i think becauae bitcoin is the most popular coin, so other coin can't change the bitcoin. bitcoin is the most popular coin right now and the firat cryptocurrenciew that most people know, so i think in the next 2 years bitcoi will be a king

Another reason maybe : this is still bitcoin which is used for almost all trading pairs, BCH still remains as all others classic altcoins, it's just another one, in fact. What can you trade with your BCH ? Almost everything, except BTC, ETH or USDT.

If exchanges would have switched their pairs to BCH, the situation could be much different now.

yes, BCH is a fraction of the BTC fork, and has a high value. but I think spreading and the volume is still a little and weak. maybe one day after bitcoin runs out, then people will move to BCH. investing,trading and also making transactions with BCH.
this will be a rivalry between BCH and ETH!

because until now the price of bitcoin is still number one, its price remained above the sky although it decreased, therefore probably the reason some people do not move from bitcoin

Everyone views Bitcoin Cash as a joke, there's not much strong support, their community is dwindling, it doesn't compare at all to the developers the real Bitcoin has.

It's just a pure imitation so why? They should have created their own brand because they are just really relying on bitcoin and not on their own. It's like copying the work of others and then getting recognized as the best which is a very stupid idea.

There is not doubt that the new altcoin, BCH a new digital currency that just started its existence can “never” be placed on the throne pre-occupied by the very first “Bitcoin”. Just because of the cancellation of SegWit 2X, or just trying to pursuit the new payment method option, or just having a 8 MB block in the mempool to adjust blockchain size increase, one should not even dream about dethroning Bitcoin. You can co-exit but not be the king. BTC is prevailing for all these years and with that prevailing, it is making new standards every day. These standards are set in the forms of the approvals for BTC acceptance into transaction community that was not connected to decentralized payment before. Again, The Network Effect virtually underlies every product or service whose success depends on demand and adoption. recent developments mean that BTC is surely topping and with it comes the issue of network capacity through on-block scalability to accommodate new entrants keen on riding along the mega BTC bull train.

BCH is just an altcoin because it's just a clone which is not really popular by the way. I think it's gonna be down some time later.
There is no doubt that it is gaining attention just because of similarity with bitcoin core name. This bitcoin cash is another shitty altcoin which is making vain attempts to surpass bitcoin in the race of being the most amazing digital currency.

Bitcoin is the one which is having largest customer community which is not even that of fiat currencies. Bitcoin is soon going to be legalized around the globe making other coins pretty useless.

Cause we know how unfair it is for bitcoin and some other coin that are much longer stays in crypto currency than thsi BCH so i think that can be the rason why BCH is not a king and still bitcoin is.
