Less transaction fees and same amount as BTC... why not ;D

No one can now the future, I have heard a lot of people say that these two coins can coexist together in the future. So it shouldnt necessarily be seen as a replacement for the original BTC. But who knows, in the future everything might happen!

Of course not. Bitcoin or bitcoin, BCH can't replace it, you see a look at the flow of money every day understand. Most of the money in the market is in bitcoin, which is inseparable from people's approval of special currency. Even if the price of BCH is high, it can not replace the position of bitcoin.

No. I don't believe that it is even possible for BCH or any altcoin arise from fork will be able to replace Bitcoin as the top cryptocurrency. There are already coins from forks that challenged the reputation of bitcoi. but for a long run, bitcoin remained the best since its marjet value is continuously growing more than any other crypto. Bitcoin is expected to be more successful in the future and chances are high that it will happen.

No, bitcoin will be the number one of cryptocurrency, if bitcoin is replaced by bch then bch will replaced by the other altcoin, and there is no cryptocurrency which can keep its value. And investor will tired of cryptocurrency investment.

No, i always thought bitcoin is never replace the fact is bch just an altcoin even if it's come by bitcoin split the fact is just bitcoin is will never replace i trust that.

Fork will never replace the original one. Bitcoin Cash transaction fees is absolutely less than bitcoin but it will not long-last. When it comes in technicality and trusted coin, bitcoin is the most famous. Bitcoin is the best cryptocurrency and no one can change it for me. Eventhough there are lots of altcoin and forks, bitcoin will be the number one.

I don't think so, because bch-is centralized

I don't think that bitcoin cash can replace bitcoin in the future
bitcoin is the king for the cryptoccurrency, No altcoins or Coins can be replace BTC.

not a chance for that. BCH will get pumped hard but it will never be able to compete with bitcoin because it is not doing anything special apart from having bigger blocks than bitcoin!


it is like this ONLY because nobody is using BCH. check out their blocks if you don't believe me. 90% of them are empty with only a couple of transctions in them.

I think one of the best explanation for this is when they interview the guy from (I cant recall), that every time that has a fork, BTC is going stronger to put it simply he said that we had different medium of transactions in different era, where gold lost in the age of time as a medium of transaction yet the price of gold is still growing. And BTC is like gold, every fork BTC price will just increase.

Btc will always be number 1 but as we see time pass we will see more and more problems with transaction fees. We have to remember that with more interest in crypto currencies the first thing people hear is btc and as they learn more they may well sell bch as the future.

Does the spike bitcoin made this year says it will be replaced? Of course not! at least not in the foreseeable future.
In the far future there may come a coin that will replace BTC, but it's too far to be known by us now..

BCH replacing bitcoin in the future !?
the answer .. can be "yes", considering the features bitcoincash superior and interesting. bitcoincash with
innovation and updates and system improvements are expected to be more sophisticated.
for the price, in the future, bitcoin and bitcoincash will be equally expensive.

however, as we know, cryptocurrency is very difficult to guess. let's see what will happen tomorrow. ;D

It was the first goal of the hard fork at that time to replace the BTC with a stable coin in the BTC blockchain with a large block size (8MB besides 1MB) and a low transcation fees. And it was the time when China banned the ICOs collecting funds for start-ups so community thought it was the end of the bitcoin and Chineese investors started pump the BCH by puting more FIAT money on it. By nowdays, it's clear that this is not possible to replace bitcoin due to centralized authorities aiming to create a new mechanism bor the cryptoworld. Bitcoin is decentralized and only leaded by the community so can't expect to easly replace it. One last thing that bitcoin is the only solution for anybody to cash out his funds so we may think about a possible replacement if Banks and ATMs adopt the BCH as a method of payment.

No. While it is feasible for a cryptocurrency to replace Bitcoin at some point due to better features, just like paper replaced Gold that was used as a currency in the ancient times, that coin will never ever be Bitcoin Cash.
Firstly, should more than 10 people start using Bitcoin Cash regularly, the blocks will become full, and that is 8MB per block. That is an increase of 420GB over the course of 365 days. They've also said that they will further increase the block size if needed, which will make things even worse. In a few years' time, only a handful of entities will be able to run Bitcoin Cash nodes, thus making it centralized.
For reference the Bitcoin blockchain is 142GB right now.

Bitcoin Core will implement the Lightning network soon and then BCash will not be able to keep up. They can increase

the Block sizes as much as they want, they will never have the same scalability as the Lightning Network. Fees will no longer

be a issue, because off-chain payment channels will be much cheaper.  ;)

BCC replacing bitcoin is mostly an unnecessary question. They didn't have to be in opposing camps because the only major technology difference is the blocksize.
If this alone could propel a crypto currency above bitcoin, then some other coin would have done this already and the same must have been done by it to another of the almost 1800 crytpos out there.
For the time being, the questions regarding on-chain scaling are the real issue that would have been best solved by all the best brains joining together rather than this political/ greed motivated bickering that has instead been going on since BCC came into existence.

Now there are multiple arguments on both sides about who fired the first shot and it has been debated endlessly. Ultimately, what matters to not just bitcoin's future but also for crypto as a whole is whether they can come up with real workable solutions to the scaling issue.

For now, those who are being happy about fast confirmation times of BCC need only take a look at the blockchain explorer results for the two chain and forget about the prices for once.
The number of transactions that the BCC chain is doing are far less at present as compared to the BTC chain. You really have to wait and see how well BCC will actually scale when more transactions start coming on.

bitcoin cash is just getting pumped hard today and you are getting overly excited because you made some profit thanks to this ongoing pump.

instead of letting excitement blind you, try to look past it and start thinking about when you should sell before the dumping begins like last time and you miss out your chance to maximize your profit.

If BCH can get payment processors like Bitpay to enable them, and if Bitpay win back customers like Steam to accept bitcoincash, then yes.

Bitcoin is currently completely unusable for merchants, so another coin has to take it's place. It's either that, or give up and concede the merchant space to the lives of VISA and Mastercard.

Bcash is very powerful of course. But as we see they can't stop this rocket ship called BTC. When bitcoin fell by 5,500 thousand and BCASH was almost 3 thousand seemed to be Yes, maybe but now it is clear who is the boss.
BUT grows well BCASH and what is soon to be released card bcash very cool

No, I don't think it will happen. Moreover I guess that LTC could take BCH place ;) It doesn't mean that BCH will lose top-10 title, but I think there will be huge shifts in crypto economy in 2018.

Bcash will NEVER replace BTC.

Roger Ver is a douchebag, a total idiot... watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCOjCEth6xI

Bitcoin cash just another fork of bitcoin and that's not comparable with the bitcoin. if there are some people like roger ver that spreads bullshit about that. Don't take it seriously. There is only one bitcoin and that was the bitcoin itself. Bitcoin cash just a kind to steal the demand of bitcoin instantly.

Even the value of bitcoin cash is growing. It can never replace bitcoin. Bitcoin is so high right now and i think it will get more higher in the future. Even other crypto they cannot replace bitcoin.

That is a fact and i do not think that any other crypto currency including bitcoin cash can replace bitcoin, as bitcoin has its own value and status which will continue for a long long time, bitcoin will remain as number one currency for ever.

I agree with you, bitcoin will remain as number one crytocurrency, If bitcoin does not invented/ created there's no way Altcoins will be around & were not here bitcoiners/ altcoiners, bitcointalk.org were not existed.

The most important aspect of a currency is not its name, its logo or anything superficial like that, trust is crucial for a currency and many people around the forum do not trust the BCH hard fork, they have a different vision of what bitcoin should be but this goes against the vision of all the core developers.

yes, I agree with you, that nothing can replace bitcoin position, look at today's bitcoin growing up. BCH is a fraction of BTC, but BCH can not be equated with BTC. certainly different.

not in a million years BCH is just a fork if it be can change the big mighty BTC there will no fork by that time by now FORK is just a FORK, not an original stuff.

I don't think it will. bitcoin will continue to go up and have a high price in the future. but for bitcoin cash can go up as high as bitcoin I think will be difficult.

If there is any coin that is going to replace BTC it is not BCash, it is obvious it is a baby of Roger and his click, if BTC was marketed this way it won't have achieved this much in the space

I dont think bch will replace btc, as you can see they are both very far from each other. Even other currency it will not, its very hard to replace the no. 1 crytocurrency. It will take more time to do that.
Now btc value is very high, and its very hard to achieve that. But we will see in next few years what will happen.

Inevitable. BTC is dead

I think so too, if one day BCH will replace the BTC advantage of low fee and bigger transaction block is the advantage of BCH.
We will see later.

The transaction fees is definitely a big issue due to which the other altcoins will definitely pick up. But saying btc is dead would not be a right thing to say considering it is already at 17k and may even see 19k by this year end . BTC will give you the best returns in coming time as well so ideally you should always have btc along with some other coins.

You are right bitcoin cash has less transaction fees but the price will never surpass or even same with bitcoin. Bitcoin transaction fees is a big problem right now, at least you need to spend $15 to pay the fee and the confirmation is not even fast. BCH will not replace btc but BCH can be the best 2nd cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin has its users, and it's enormous, and a fork cannot replace bitcoin. There are alt coins which have faster transactions, fewer transactions fees, and better block size. But as a replacement for Bitcoin, they have a long, long way to go.

Bitcoin core is the face of cryptocurrencies and I don't think any coin can replace it in future including Bitcoin cash. Bitcoin cash is going to get some favourable price movement in 2018 but it will not replace Bitcoin. There are a lot of things that are going to happen in cryptoàcurrencies world and Bitcoin cash should be one of the coins to watch over.

It's quite ridiculous to even think of this to happen in the future. T'was only last month where BCH made a price hike and cutting a bit bitcoin's market price but that's not even good enough to replace Bitcoin's place. BCH can only be a successor if and only if bitcoin is gone already in the cryptoworld, in my own humble opinion.  ;D

There are many bitcoin forks but this bch I dont think it can replace btc future. Yes bitcoin as the mainstream and most used because of the capability to become huge its value. Btc future will become strong and will be exists other than altcoins.

I think it is impossible because of the bitcoin himself had once compared the height position of the bitcoin cash. Anyway bitcoin is also the parent of all the coins so it is very unlikely if the bitcoin will overcome by other coins.

I don't think BCH will replace BTC . Though transaction fee of BCH is less than BTC, but BTC is trusted by lot of people they are buying BTC as an assets so the transaction fee has the less important . And as per popularity BCH is still way behind BTC.

No altcoins can replace Bitcoin, but they can live together and both grow up. BCH will support what Bitcoin missing but could not kill Bitcoin.  ;)

Yeah there are some alts that have fast and fewer transaction fees and this is because of having a low demand in the market. And seeing the side of bitcoin and the insanely increasing of demand no doubt that the network will be slower yet with a high fee and it's reasonable tho.
Bch, a trying hard coin that fully manipulate by big whales won't replace the fact the bitcoin is the king and never will be dethrone.

It's not just about having faster confirmations and lower fees - it's about whether merchants adopt your coin for payments.

Ethereum has already managed to get a lot of merchant adoption - bitcoincash's challenge is to do the same or better. If they can't be the main coin for purchasing thing, there is no point to them.

I don't think that's possible. Bitcoin will always be the number one and the mother of all cryptocurrencies. Although that the blockchain fees are now high that small investors can't afford to buy, Bitcoin Cash is another option for them. In the hosted exchange wallet that I'm in, they had a plan to include Bitcoin Cash as another payment or withdrawal method aside from Bitcoin.

I can see that BCH will continue to grow, but they'll never replace the ultimate crypto of all time.

Speculators are trying to convince us that every next fork is a new bitcoin. But I think that you can not artificially create a new bitcoin. I think the invention of Satoshi Nakamoto will forever remain the main crypto-currency of the world

Less transaction times, cheaper fees. Where have we heard that before? In 100% of all altcoins! The last time an alt wanted to dethrone Bitcoin was Ethereum. Remember when everyone talked about the Flippening? And then what happened? It rose so high to #2, and took Bitcoin dominance to 50%, but then it couldn't maintain the hold, even with hundreds of ICOs launching ERC20 tokens. And now, with one game, it is overstressed and congested.

Bitcoin Cash can probably handle a lot more, but until we see BCH being easily converted to fiat it won't dominate. Besides, if BCH ever becomes #1, why would that be a thing? Bitcoin is #1 or #2 doesn't matter. We all still judge crypto by Bitcoin.

Another bitcoin fork will become useless ccrypto because that is not a part from the bitcoin. That just created by the developers that taken the screenshoot from the bitcoin network and try to send it for free.
There will be no new bitcoin in the future, Bitcoin is only bitcoin and no more.

that is why bitcoin cash can reach 2000$ in short time like this. no altcoin in the world can do that like bitcoin cash

It is too early to comment on this because Bitcoin cash is barely having 1/10 of the Bitcoin network transactions. I don't know if they can handle that much of transactions and also emergency difficulty adjustment which is like 'mine my coin, I'll help you to get more profts' This is actually immoral.

We can never tell what will really happened on future. But bitcoin is remarkable, i don't think it will just surpass by an altcoin as easy as that. Imagine the gap of the coins, BTC is more than enough than BCH. But this is just my opinion, we cannot conclude what the future of every coin might be. All i can say is Bitcoin is a legend on crypto, hard to take its place.

The real answer lies on the mass and merchant adaption, like for example even if Japan, aside from embracing  bitcoin as legal tender, if they too will embraced bitcoincash as another legal tender it still can never replaced  bitcoin as the top cryptocurrency because bitcoin still more favorable by the Japanese people. Bitcoin is still legit as the king of cryptocurrency.

No one can say for certain but I don't think it will happen. Bitcoin has such a big brand behind it that it can survive difficulties that coins such as bitcoin cash won't be able to survive.

Practically of the primary Bitcoin supporters including those exchanges, wallets, Furthermore mining Group need shunned BCC and have said they won't be supporting the new piece blockchain. But ultimately it looks like BCC is a go and BCC will become a new altcoin. I think its not the next btc soo yeah

I think these things will not happen because it is very far away between the two coins. but other than that not too cash bitcoin interest, unlike the bitcoin.

No I dont think it will replace Bitcoin if you look at Roger Ver during his interview, he doesnt look professional at all. People are not going to trust Bitcoin Cash, if their main sponsor acts like a child. On the other hand, I think Ethereum have a very good chance to become the next bitcoin.

i think its possible because bitcoincash is a one of kind altcoin that has many advantage like bigger block size and lesser  fees plus faster transation time when compared to bitcoin. also bitcoincash price is verry affordable, that is why many people especially investors and traders can always avail it but not on bitcoin because bitcoin is pretty expensive right now and also bitcoin has been facing alot of problems like scalability issues and much expensive transaction fees ,also slower transaction time due to network congestion. overall ican say that yes bch can surely replace bitcoin soon only if bitcoin wont improved its performance.

Well, it's the purpose of forking bitcoin.
they apply their proposal to change or add feature which may be better than what bitcoin is at that time.
but, it doesn't change the fact that bitcoin is still number one or the king of cryptocurrency, because bitcoin has influenced the real physical market or merchant to adopt as payment.
bitcoin is earlier born than bitcoin cash.
So, the trust from people make bitcoin growth quickly.
For many years, bitcoin has stood. Bitcoin is still considered as the legit number one for payment.
The more adoption, the more it'll grow.

when you can actually buy things every day with crypto then low fees will become important and BHC will rise against BTC

yes I think BCH has a low transaction cost when compared to btc. But to replace BTC I think BCH will not be able to do that.

So is Litecoin, Dogecoin, and many others altcoins had it. People really need to stop thinking Bitcoin Cash has a better technology and because of that, it will be a competition for Bitcoin.

It's not gonna be a competitor to BTC. It's simply an altcoin like any other altcoin in the market. Don't try to make a hype around BCH garbage. We all know BCH pumpers and their purposes, don't worry.

I don't think BCH is a competitor to BTC. Some ppl used it to make really good profit from pump and dump.

Replacing btc now is very hard to achieve.
Bch has lots of improvement to make, btc is now the number one of all crytocurrency and bch is too far from that.
But still no one knows, maybe in the future bch can be a good competitor of btc.
Every one of us has a opinion but no one can really predict its future.
So lets wait and see.

I said people buy bitcoin because that is the only crypto currency they know. they are new. they just know bitcoin on facebook, social...

it is possible but answer no, easy mining will make BCH under control .

when high demand happen it is easy to earn more coins and back price to normal *Stop rising*

Probably because no one can predict what will happen in the future, but for now I say it's hard to happen even if it could.

I'm sure will also other member make a thread whether BTG (Bitcoin Gold) can replace BTC or also another new coin result from Bitcoin hardfork.

I do not see that there is an alt coin or any coins that comes from the fork that can replace the bitcoin. Bitcoin has been established, as its users increase more than other alt coins. So I think it's not going to go down too much, but it's going to be even higher than we expect.

No, as soon as it forked it just became another altcoin, by the looks of it a pretty successful alt, but still just another alt. Just like in Highlander: there can only be one

In the cryptocurrency world nothing can be predicted. i think bch might just replace bitcoin but not for now. maybe it will happen about 10 years later. Because it need much time. Bch must improve their system so that bch can replace bitcoin.

BCH replacing BTC is very possible. Remember BCH is the one following Satoshi Nakamoto's White Paper. Unless BTC upgrades then I can see them getting dropped as top crypto in short term.

Would this be good if you have both bitcoin and bitcoin cash?

for me, i think bitcoin cash will never surpass bitcoin on its value, if bitcoin will fail so as bitcoin cash, bitcoin can stand alone it will be the best coin , but another scenario, i think it will be good to us if those two will go pump to the highest :)

Not in the near future. The fact remains that most people with a little knowledge of the cryptomarket only know about BTC and not BCH. also, the number of transactions per day in the two networks cannot be compared.

If the lightning technology will be implemented by Bitcoin, then there is no chance that Bitcoin Cash can replace bitcoin.
The low transaction fees at the moment are due to the low number of users and transactions. If users increase and number of transactions increase, this fee amount will definitely increase.

A fork coin cant surpass bitcoin no matter what, keeping the hype just to get people to change from bitcoin to bitcoin cash, bitcoin cash still have a long way to run before it can match with bitcoin and still need adopter before it can really compete with bitcoin.

No one can replace btc it such a strong and stable coins,it has a better future than any other coin.They will not able to defeat btc anymore,it always be a competition to other coins.

Bitcoin is the king in the cryptocurrency world.
I am believe that no coins or altcoins can be replace bitcoin in the future.

No.. it can't.. surely I guess.
Indeed it seems the price continues to increase from time to time because it maybe more of support from various parties as well as many people who are has been interested in Bch. But still.. I still believe Btc remains the strongest and unbeatable.

I think not, it's hard enough it seemed to replace the bitcoin. could just be happening but it seems like it takes far too long and it is better to switch to any other coins are more beneficial than waiting for BCH replaces bitcoin.

that will not happen.
BCH will not take the Throne of BTC.
i cant sense BCH potential to be the next BtC

Bitcoincash is building infrastructure:

https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-cash-will-close-out-2017-with-significant-infrastructure-support/

Not going to happen as bitcoin cash is a private centralised version of bitcoin and no one except Jihan Wu and Roger Ver will use it.They controll the asics producion and wanted to cotrol the code thats why they forked bitcoin,that fast transaction time isnt anything specail as there are many currencys that can do the same way faster

Bitcoin cash has lesser transaction fees only because the demand for it is still small and has less traffic.

Who knows what will happen should the demand thats with bitcoin-BTC shift to bitcoin-BCH...will it hold? Or maybe we shall be coming back to the high transaction fees? But i honestly think as prices increase bitcoin transactions will reduce as fewer people will be willing to pay higher fees than the cost of a product. This tells me BTC isnt getting replaced!

no, it won't

I completely believe that if Bitcoin cant improve its weaknesses, it can be replaced in the future in payment. However, using in payment and price are different. Maybe, Bitcoin cash can be used in payment more than Bitcoin. Bitcoin price is still higher.

I do believe in the same thing.
Bitcoin can't be used for payments as of now but Bitcoin cash can be used so I think these two cryptocurrencies will co exist. BCH alone cannot replace Bitcoin completely. More people in this world know about Bitcoin than Bitcoin cash plus media covers Bitcoin more often than any altcoins.

Roger Ver does really want to push his coin out there by endorsing it to these companies and now starting to build infrastructure? There's too much hate on bitcoin cash because of what it's been doing with bitcoin. I don't think that it will replace bitcoin in the future. Bitcoin cash is just an altcoin, once bitcoin has solved scaling problems it will make it hard for bitcoin cash's plan to be applied of replacing bitcoin.

It will not replace BTC, but an attempt is in process at the moment..  ;)

I do not believe that BCH can replace bitcoin. Because the platform and community of bitcoin is irreplaceable. There are many altcoin that want to replace bitcoin but they can not do it and I think BCH is no exception.

I think it can definitely compete for payment integrations, however, bitcoin will always be the Digital Gold (at least for the next 3-5 years at least).  

well it just hit 8k somehow

I know some guys that moved all there BCT to BCH because BCH has solved the problems to some degree... and BCT is the same with all it's same problems.

the chance is wide open for bch but it depends on the user itself and even it is possible for bch to replace btc, it will need a time and need more support from many people. many people amazed at bch right now because of the price increase so high and reach 0.22 btc and right now, we only can wait until how long bch will be like this. I am sure that bitcoin will be staying in the top position in the cryptocurrency.

Well, in that basis, Bitcoin Cash may be better than Bitcoin. Bitcoin has indeed much higher transaction fees. Bitcoin has to do something about this if they want to be used as it is designed to do. However, I think in terms of people buying a cryptocurrency for the sake of investment, Bitcoin is still the coin to bet. It remains to be the number one among crypto investors. That is why the growth of Bitcoin is leading. Bitcoin Cash's growth, especially sudden surges, are most often created by a few whales.

It is anything but inevitable, bitcoin is looking very strong at the moment, now it seems bitcoin cash is going to be here for a lot of time since it seem to have the support from a segment of the community but you cannot expect everyone to support especially if we take into account what we know about bitcoin cash.

I think not, unless everyone turns to BCH and leaves BTC. day BTC should make better service for its users. so users will be comfortable.

BCH one of the main contenders. Many followers and Roger Ver is not a stupid person and he has huge ambitions.
I think next year he will surprise us, not just the price.

there are many good altcoins can replace Bitcoin such as Bitcoin cash, Litecoin, IOTA, Dash, Monero,... in payment. But I think that Bitcoin is the symbol of Cryptocurrency.  People can use other coins for payment, but those coins can replace the role of Bitcoin.

This is most probably true. I think the same way. Bitcoin is the father of cryptocurrency. It is the beginning of everything about crypto and blockchain. Everything else that followed are simply following the footsteps of Bitcoin. However, as is true to almost everything in life, the second, third, fourth, fifth, and so on will try to become better than their previous version. So in terms of decentralization, anonymity, scalability, etc, the cryptos that followed have already installed some improvements. But the truth remains that the role of being the founder cannot be replaced anytime.

I definitely agree, bitcoin is no longer "KING" eternally time will comes and it will be replaced by any of the coins or altcoins of the crypto currency.
We don't know when it will happen but be ready for that possibility, if you have a lot of altcoins it's better if you hold it for long period of time because I'm sure that in the future you can used that.

It could be just that to happen, it is not impossible. let alone this month alone bitcoin not experiencing price increase again reverse precisely bitcoin cash always increase little by little and even sometimes directly rises to the high prices.

To approximate maybe Guys.
But to get past the BTC seems Difficult.
BTC is still a priority for now and for the next few years.

On paper, sure, it would seem that all these coins can replace Bitcoin. But let's remove the coins with specific niche uses. Monero and Dash are for anonymous transactions, which not everyone needs or will dare to learn to use due to added complexity. Let's remove platform coins like ETH and Waves or Stratis, because these are coins that support other apps.

Litecoin and BCH yes, will be among those strong challengers that compete strictly on basis as currency or means of payment. Until we see the day people are able to easily convert them to cash, and easily buy products and services with them, we can't ignore that Bitcoin still means the first thing we understand when we say crypto.

They cannot replace bitcoin because it has a good foundation that cannot defeated by any other coins.Bitcoin is the mother of cryptocurrency and I think no one can replace it in the future ,we did not sure of any what happen on it there is a possibility that it will be stronger for the near future.

no, I don't think it will replace BTC but it has a huge potential to be the CASH crypto, while
BTC is and will be the STORE OF VALUE (like gold). It will eventually substitute Gold IMHO

I that in terms of Bitcoin's original purpose, yes Bitcoin Cash or another spinoff or alt will replace Bitcoin as the number of unconfirmed transactions and increase in fees is making it virtually useless as a payment method. However in terms of being a store of value, which many are calling Bitcoin now, I don't think any coin can compete with it at the moment.

I can't believe that bitcoin cash replace bitcoin in crypto currency industry, maybe it will happen in the future but it takes a decades. Because if you notice bitcoin are so long gap with bitcoin cash, so lets see if this BCH reach closed to the position of bitcoin. I guess many people are going to invest in bitcoin cash now, because price of this coin now are silently increasing.

Never, not a chance.  It doesn't have any particular use purpose other than being faster.. what does it differently other than that? 

It was an obvious attempt to try to overthrow BTC, with a massive fail..  Coinbase staff and that bitcoin.com idiot should all be drawn and quartered for inside trading... I would pay to watch it in bitcoin.

 ::)

Yes i think it will take over.
The high transaction fees, older technology, the team focussing only on improving bitcoin cash now....
The only reason bitcoin is better is because its the only coin that can actually used for payment.

But im a firm believer of that newer -and- better tech will replace older tech, especially if that older tech is also more expensive.

But since butcoin dominates so much, it will take time.

I dont think other coins will take over because bitcoin cash already has the name of bitcoin. This automaticly creates hype and research and therefore investments. Especially upcoming chances are looking good and now more and more accepted by trading ans buying platforms.

big no for sure!
although bitcoin might become reserve, and out of everyone reaches, but I dont see it  being replaced.

for day to day transaction it may be replaced, i personally do day to day transfers via eth [cheaper/faster compared to btc]

I think the insider trading is really crazy which happened today. It pumped to nearly 10k, it is so crazy. Crypto is like the wild west right now

less transaction fees because bitcoin cash is not as big as bitcoin,but when
time comes the price is the same maybe the fees is more than bitcoin by then.and.
Thats impossible for bitcoin to be replaced by bch..i doubt if it will happen.

Nothing impossible in the cryptocurrency, anything can happened.
May be someday bitcoin cash can be replace bitcoin, I see the price of BCH is rise a lot today
But I always believe that bitcoin is the best at the moment.

ofcourse tps on bch is pretty low as compared to btc.

and big whales have to unload their wallet at the moment...

As much as I would want for BCH to be right up there with Bitcoin, I do not see it happening anytime soon

Which Bitcoin is the real Bitcoin will be determined by its value as a functioning currency and that is what will drive adaptation.

Hi,



Hello every one,I am Deshan fro sri lanka.
 
  That is very good question . but very difficult topic because we can't predict any future.we don't know what happen in any work and any thing,
  But we can check back and taking some idea about that.i mean we can check BCH informations,Histry,and chart. So then we can take some idea what
  happen in future.this is my answer,i think this is the best.

Now BCH price is $2,627.52 USD
Now BTC price is $13,952.00 USD

However we all know BTC is how going,.it's going boom..So one day or sooner BCH can goes to big way,But we don't know it surely goes or not,because we can't predict future 100%.Any thing can happen.Lets see what they doing,. ;D ;D ;D so wait and watch.

Thank you! :)

Other altcoin that are bitcoin clone can also do that, Bitcoincash is having a blast this past weeks I just don't know if they can sustain that we have to see in the coming months if the momentum can still go on, but I don't believe it can overtake Bitcoin.

I do not believe that BCH will be able to replace BTC, because it was created only to correct the cost of bitcoin and will not have such huge popularity. Although for some time it will be possible to earn it.
         

it is actually not possible that BCH will replace BTC . because BTC investors are huge as compare to BCH which support by China market only
So BTC will be the King Always

Happy Trading
Thanks
Regards

@Op Do you really believe that bch can replace the king in its throne? I dont think so, bitcoin core is continue working to make bitcoin more stable and solving the current scalability and other issues so lets just wait until good news I heard the lightning network is currently in testing that will solve skyrocketing transaction fees and achieve instant transaction, sounds good right?       

THE SHIFT HIT THIS WEEK

Coinbase allowed BCH on GDAX

1 week ago btc was almost 20K and 10 to 1 in value ratio to BCH

Now that BCH is on GDAX the public has spoken

The value ratio is now 5 to 1

So the event that caused this seismic correction in values was BCH moving onto GDAX

2 days ago I said the PROPHET OF BITCOIN was warning btc was to hit 10k soon

It hit 11k today

He says BCH and BTC will soon merge in value around the 10K value

Then they both explode to 50K

so read and learn

not so soon I guess because people still believe with bitcoin and they are only making money from bitcoin cash in short of time. but they are making big money from bitcoin for a long term investment and they still use bitcoin to trade with altcoin. until now, bitcoin cash is not used as a pair with altcoin and only with bitcoin and fiat and maybe if bitcoin cash could be a trade with altcoin then maybe bitcoin cash could be the next position of bitcoin.

At worst what it will happen if bitcoin keeps being slow is that bitcoin begins to be used as gold, as a store of value which is something that we are already seeing today but to be honest I trust in the devs and the solution they have chosen to scale the network.

nothing is impossible in the future. because BCH could just be getting more interest than on BTC and that will make the price even exceeding the higher BCH BTC.

BCH is good for some reason but I don’t believe that it will replace bitcoin, it will never happen. Bitcoin will continue to lead altcoins and be ready because it will soar higher, and more people will enjoy it.

I dont think that bitcoin can replased by BCH. But maybe it can other coin, which has no problem with performance and scalability.

If they dont find a fix for the impossible high fees and slow transactions bth will take over. Soon people with few fractions of btc will be cut out.

I think so

BCH will never replace BTC
if someone really think that he is a funny guy
most of the people saying it to make people buy BCH, thats all..

No because we have the internet now and people can find out the truth. 

Once bitcoin solves the fee issue bch will die.

Well it a big no.
I dont see any chance that bitcoin cash will replace bitcoin in the future.
 Bitcoin was the first coin known in the cryptocurrency market.
And I think that bitcoin was the base of all the coin made.
So it means that no coin will replace bitcoin unless bitcoin loose its supporters and investors.

That's FUD to make the newcomers are feeling panic and then move to the bitcoin cash. You can see how many Roger try to make a bullshit press about the bitcoin cash to replace the real bitcoin or block stream bitcoin.
They are all hating the bitcoin original. That's why you don't need to get it seriously.

Why not? I think as of now it's possible to happen because  all of us are affected with the transaction fee and that's not good for us. Because it's not to earn bitcoin I hope the fee will decrease . Bitcoincash is good and for sure it will increase again and I hope this is the next bitcoin so the fee is less. But if bitcoin decrease fee I will love bitcoin again.

I do not think bitcoin is just altcoin, although bitcoin has slower transaction rates, but most investors will believe in bitcoin and the bitcoin value is better than bitcoin cash.

I agree totally with you.

Please explain what you mean by "slower transaction rates"...are you referring to speed or rate of adoption?

If it's the former, you are waaaay off the mark as bitcoin can only process 7 transaction in a second, Ripple and EOS does 50 thousand transactions per second. And it's scalable to millions per second. 

i can't sure about it because in crypto can't predict for future
maybe if bch will same with btc its mean bch is invesment for future so buy and saving now is good choose

indeed lately BCH continues to jump up, but to replace the position of BTC it will be very difficult even though BCH only requires a small transaction fee.

I think BTC would still likely be the main digital currency of the future. But for that a few things need to be improved

The problems it is facing now such as slow/stuck transactions and high fees need to all change though in the future for Bitcoin to remain as the number 1. It has to change real fast before the fees go sky high (they are already pretty high btw) and more transactions keep getting backlogged in the mempool. Right now Lightning Network is being tested and there's no official date that when it'll be launched to the public. You can test transactions on Lightning Network using Test BTC's and the transactions were super fast with low fees.

If Lightning Network goes well and all exchanges and wallets adapt their service, then I personally think Bitcoin can continue to grow tremendously whilst remaining the top digital currency without its forks such as BCH taking over.

Well to think that bch is being manipulated by big whales so there's nothing impossible with them because of the greediness that runs in their system.
However, looking in its aspect yeah it's quite agreeable that bch is much more good when it comes in transaction but the great potential that bitcoin possess we shouldn't doubt bitcoin exceptional capabilities.

in the future, no one knows how. It could just be it will happen. If it is Yes for sure with lucky people who invest in the BCH, will get lots of advantages.

It's possible unless something is done about BTC transaction fees. Why pay $30 when you can pay 30 cents?

You are absolutely right because it cannot replace the Bitcoin because Bitcoin has the large community and whereas BCH has very less community. BCH is just BTC clone and it is not possible to secure the place of Bitcoin.

I think that BCH will not replace the BTC in the near future. And not only BCH, but other altcoins will not be able to push back BTC, since bitcoin is the foundation that holds the building of Crypto-currency. And if bitcoin falls, then other crypto-currencies will fly down.

Although speculating on the stock exchange is more profitable on altcoins.

it's just another altcoin, no more usefull than litecoin, but 'it's marketed and manipuled by a little group of person so, stay away from this kind of garbage

bitcoin is also the parent of all the coins so it is very unlikely if the bitcoin will overcome by other coins.

Some years ago all the people were using Nokias phones. They were using MySpace. People used to have horse-drawn coaches.
Everything is possible and progess and development is unstoppable. So if Lightning does not come in any near future even the almighty Bitcoin will have a problem. I mean the transaction fees at the moment are a joke. And there might be more problems to come even.

If Bitcoin can develop fast enough everything will be fine, if not. Well, let's see. Bitcoin currently benefits from the media a lot.
But still I don't think that Bitcoin Cash will take this position then.

Well we cant deny that bitcoin cash are showing a lot of improvements nowadays. Not just in price but also in the feature amd ICO it has. A lot of miners continue to support this coin that cause it to be more popular and trusted by many investor. But eventhough that was the case it can still not replace bitcoin. I know that the abilitu of BCC are not yet enough to replace BTC. It take a long period of time before that to happen.

In near future, it will not going to be happen. But the major stock holders of BCH (---,---,---) will successfully exchange it with BTC by making fool of innocent people.

"There are a lot of coins having less transaction fee & less supply than BTC. If these both are the parameter then all those can also replace BTC in Future!!!!"

fees are crazy already, no way

maybe yes maybe no, no one can guess the future like what, depending on the trading market. but I think it will be very difficult to pursue the price of btc, there is always a possibility, well we'll see later in the future

I agree with you.
the price difference between Bitcoin and BCH is very far away. quite difficult for BCH to defeat Bitcoin.
we'll see what will happen, I heard in 2018 BCH there will be pumping.

And another look at this question is that bch is just another altcoin which won't compete with bitcoin casue of popularity and speed of development of bitcoin.

Probably wont replace it but could live alongside it.

BCH does not have the support that bitcoin- BTC has but should the BCH grow to bitcoins level am expecting fees to increase.

Coming back to the question if BCH will replace BTC in the future...its hard to tell but with devs who are behind the scenes working on a solution am sure a fix will soon come and these problems will be a thing of the past.

Actually i am not thing about this. Because bitcoin is the king of digital currency it's a world best popular coin i have ever seen. But BCH is another good coins no doubt about it. I hpe BCH will boom like BTC but never replace BTC at all i think.

BCash will never replace BTC because BCash is run by Roger Ver:

bitcoin is the chain with the original developers namely bitcoin core developers. It is likely going to stay the number one chain

With the way the fees are going it wouldn't surprise me if BCH takes over. I'd rather it not, it would make things so much easier if core just raised the bloody block size.

With BTC's insane fees, anything is possible...

I think, Bitcoin Cash will never exceed Bitcoin because until now the price of Bitcoin remains the best and most of all cryptocurrency in the world. You can not judge Bitcoin Cash just from its development in a short time. We should know that Bitcoin has existed for a long time and will not be easily shaken. I still believe in Bitcoin and will not be tempted by other forms of Bitcoin. Instead of risking my money on Bitcoin Cash or other Bitcoin shapes, I'd better keep it and invest my money in another Altcoin like Ethereum, Litecoin, Waves and the others.

No that is not possible because the future later on there will be no yan knew. but for sure if later indeed BCH will replace the BTC would happen a lot of investors who will move to the BCH as a source of their investment.

BCH has better foundations technically and it is truer to Satoshi's vision of bitcoin is... I just cant see why it cant't surpass BTC one day after people open their eyes. BTC has big problems, no one can deny that, regarding transaction speeds and enormous fees, which are two main purposses of a currency, and BCH is far better in those areas than BTC.
Also, how can anyone say that BCH would have same problems as BTC has rn- if BCH has same amount of users that BTC has , when BCH has better infrastructure than BTC, and it is set to solve and deal with these problems even now.
Even Satoshi wanted bigger MB blocks, and yet with other things included, some "shitcoin-wannabee-real bitcoin" is more original bitcoin that "actual" Bitcoin...... I just wanna know why people are so pro-btc when you cant do shit with it, either you willwait weeks to complete transaction AND it will get eaten by big fees.
Also why so angry at BCH, for some reason people hate it more than all other coins combined, but really shouldnt... BCH has evolved so much since august, and its continuing to do it also...
Just to be clear, these above are facts, im not pro-any of these, im just looking what one has to offer more than other, I would love to invest in both, just right now, facts make me to believe more in BCH than BTC, and after seeing all those people still almost blindedly follow BTC and bash BCH, I want to hear why, maybe I am missing something....

Bitcoin cash is a coin like the other ones, it have bad days and pumped days. I don't think that its price will catch the bitcoin's price in the near or far future.

All of that could be said for every other top coin right under BTC nose.

I do not believe BCH is going to be anywhere near BTC in the near future. BCH will definitely grow but only as an altcoin.

I think it could have happened, because if the views of course bitcoin is currently too expensive so many people less interested in investing in the coins and will make many investors are turning to other coins such as the BCH It also has a big advantage with a capital that is not too large.

If BCH has a uniqueness than what BTC has, that assumption is near from the truth, and I would love to make my effort and trust to invest, but as far as I know still BBTC is far from it and even to all cryptocurrencies the reason of being still it at the top. But there are things that only future can tell, so let's wait for what better or worst which is possible changes.

how big a potential bch, I guess it will never replace bitcoin. until now, bch still has many shortcomings, and will continue to develop, as well as bitcoin. I'm sure bitcoin will never be replaced by any coin.

I think Yes and hopefully Yes, because of too high a bitcoin currently so there needs to be a competitor to other coins that nutrient balance so that there is no superior coin is very high as this moment bitcoin.  ;D ;D

It is curious to see this coming from a newbie who has 0 activity.

Probably you are a bot, or you are just being paid by Roger Ver and his friends only to try to advertise bitcoin cash.

I definitely do not think BCH will replace BTC anytime. Because,

1. Crypto community, which helped Bitcoin increase and widespread around the world, do not like Roger Ver obviously. They will not help him build a better cryptocurrency.

2. BCH has a way less transactions than Bitcoin. It is normal that it is faster. If it has more transactions we all do not know what will happen.

Nope, I do not think that bitcoin cash will replace bitcoin in the future, but they both can co-exist together without conflicting or creating any issue. Bitcoin cash just has a bigger block size than bitcoin. If you are considering that block size has made bitcoin cash superior than bitcoin then you are wrong. Do keep in mind that bitcoin cash is more centralized compared to bitcoin cash.

But at the same time you need to understand that such efforts are not going to work right now that the community is more or less small and has a deep understanding about what bitcoin is about but as more people use bitcoin that is going to change so they are going to have the chance to continue their attack on bitcoin.

well,, if the BCH will continue to rise why not? It is still possible for other coins to replace bitcoin specially if more investors will invest in BCH then maybe bitcoin will be beaten by the BCH and be replaced.
