Title: Forking Bcash to merge mine it with bitcoin
Post by: crazy_rabbit on November 13, 2017, 05:34:55 PM
It would seem that the current bitter environment over the Bcash fork could be somewhat avoided if we could create a situation where the community could explore the advantages of Bcash philosophy, without the two chains needing to compete for hash power.

The fighting is negative, acrimonious and unproductive.

If we were to fork Bcash and make the new fork merge minable with Bitcoin we could bring the two communities back together. The chains can compete with their value propositions in a free market, but we don't need to damage the overall value proposition of Bitcoin by this transient mining and thus unpredictable blocktimes.

It would see that Satoshi him/herself might approve of such an idea:
